You are correct in that I believe the original proposal was adults only. However, the Aquatics Committee proposed this two other times (I don’t recall the dates at this time), and both times the written proposal emphasized that while this would likely be an event that would have greater appeal to adults without children, it was open to anyone who would be interested in a nice evening at the YC pool.
In some ways it is not too different from family fun night. In that case the food and entertainment is geared to appeal to families with kids, however if adults without children want to attend no problem. And by the way, alcohol is available for adults at family fun night as well. Sunsets and cocktails is geared to appeal to adults without children but is open to families. I personally don’t see much of a difference, but if the powers that be don’t want such an event then so be it. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Vivian, you need to go back to Miller ‘s original proposal. That called for adult singles only to meet greet and enjoy cocktails and sunset at the OPA Yacht Club Swimming pool. Yes, cocktails are served on the deck at the yacht club restaurant and children are there . However, that operation is run by an independent contractor and not as a special event by the Ocean Pines association so I don’t think your distinction holds water. I thought Bruce Bright made that distinction clear. Frankly, I don’t care if OPA does the event or not but if OPA does do the event at the pool as an OPA operation, it must be open to people of all ages. |
