VERO BEACH POWER SQUADRON : Lets get this party started

What is a Vero Beach Power Squadron?

Vero Beach Power Squadron(VBPS) is a non-profit group of volunteers who are socially compatible and have a common love and appreciation for pleasure boating, whether power or sail.

For more detail on VBPS see the December (20) archive posts.....

We are a member of District 8. We are one of the 450+ squadrons of the United States Power Squadron ®.

District 8 is one of the 33 districts in the organization and covers the East Coast of Florida from Sebastian Inlet to Key West.

Objectives of the organization are self education, civic service and social activities.

You do not need to own a boat to be a member.

The VBPS was chartered in 1956.

Lets get this party started

The schedule is out for 2010. There are 21 boating events and 15 dining occasions.

Sometimes its a formal sit down dinner in house and a few outside the facility at the Vero Beach Yatch Club. Other times its a self serve BBQ style event, an occasional breakfast with a lot of self serve on most boating cruises or raft ups.

Some of the luncheon cruises get us up and down the river to places like Squid Lips, Captain Hirrams and The Tiki Hut.

Some great festive and well attended party's include St. Patricks Day Party, Cinco De Mayo, Halloween Party and Christmas Dance. Costs per person range from $5 - $35 depending on the event and its location.
