Loreto Fest Poem

meetings are called

committees are formed

oops!

a pot luck or two

oh yeah!

a photo shoot from the Porto

Bello deck

tickets are discussed,

raffles, prizes, games, food

shirts & hats

and a labour of love quilt

and then. there are birthday’s?

and trips north

hot dog strolls

and farewell parties

dinghy dock discussions

posters are made

the word is spread

a new web site is launched

the excitement is building

visitors sail in,

meet the community of

our little Hidden Port

“don’t forget Loreto Fest”

“make sure you come back”

a trip to Santa Rosalia

maybe to La Paz

but we will be back

for Loreto Fest!

a northerly picks up

and we all catch our breath

a rescue or two

and the energy builds

volunteers are called for

lists are posted

more ideas more people

more sunshine

more boats

the countdown is on

music in the evenings

T Shirts are modeled

plans are in place

Hellos

Goodbyes

and Welcome

it is all part of the

Hidden Port Yacht Club

Welcome to Loreto Fest 2010
