Don't miss the Novice Quartet Contest! Beginning at 1:30, enjoy the novice barbershop quartet contest as novice and pickup quartets vie for the coveted An-O-Chord baseball cap. "Novice" might not be a good choice of words here; there are some really fine performances on the little beach front stage!  Get a foursome together and join the fun.

Family Friendly?  YOU BET!  There's a very nice play area for the kids right next to the Picnic area.  Come on out, enjoy the sun and watch the ferries come and go, a bask in the harmony of the An-O-Chords and their friends!
