A Time to Reflect: Milestones, Gratitude, and Lake Days
Welcome back Carefree boaters! We sure enjoyed spending Earth month with our members and seeing all your fun adventures through social media. From fishing trips to photos of your furry first mates, we love watching you embrace the Carefree boating spirit. Though we have officially waved goodbye to April, it is time to set sail into one of the busiest and most exciting times of year—May!
With a rising UV index and a full calendar, May is a notoriously busy season of both celebrations and transitions. Schools are dismissing for the summer, graduates are turning their tassels and preparing to embark on new journeys, and families are gearing up for fun in the sun. May also prompts us to take time to honor the mothers in our lives on Mother’s Day, and to remember the sacrifices of our heroes on Memorial Day. As we cruise into summer, and some pretty big moments, this is the perfect time to soak it all in with your loved ones—on a Carefree boat!
Mother’s Day is right around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than a sunny day out on the water? Memories of childhood summers, of mothers zipping up our lifejackets and wrapping us in towels make the lake the ideal place to reminisce on the impact of the women who have shaped us. We are here to help with all your Mother’s Day plans, whether it is brunch on a boat, a charcuterie board to share, or a family picnic, a Carefree Boat is equipped for all your needs. To add an extra special touch to your outing, consider packing decorations like this! Let’s stay grounded in gratitude this Mother’s Day as we say thank you to the moms who still remind us, in ways big and small, that even when life rocks the boat, they are here to help us find our sea legs.
May is graduation season, and with graduation season comes graduation parties. If you are looking for a way to keep the celebration going and stand out from the crowd, bring the graduation party out to the lake! Whether they are “sailing away” from high school or college, don’t miss out on the opportunity for a nautical themed party like this one. Nothing beats an afternoon of great food and water sports, with a gorgeous backdrop to celebrate all the graduate has accomplished. Don’t forget your “we made it” playlist, and bonus points for decking out the boat in the graduate’s colors for a personal touch. Tag us on social media for a chance to be featured on our pages, we want to see how you celebrate!
Yes, Memorial Day is the unofficial summer kickoff, and while this is certainly worth celebrating, it is even more important to honor the true meaning of the day: reflecting on sacrifices made by those who served our country. The lake provides a balance of celebration and remembrance, a tranquil space for a moment of reflection, or a secluded cove for an all-American cookout. If you’re in need of inspiration, be sure to check out this blog for ideas to plan your very own festive outing. However you choose to spend the day, save some space for gratitude, appreciating the freedoms we enjoy, and the individuals who made them possible.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s head into May ready for every celebration, milestone, and moment of gratitude that comes our way, ready to make memories that will last a lifetime. Click here for more information on how to reserve your favorite boat and get the party started!
"This was the best investment we could have made. The simple way to reserve, Jacob and the entire staff is helpful and knowledgeable. When they say "the best way to have a boat" they mean it. I could never imagine doing anything else.
Plus the selection of boats at this club is fantastic. They work hard to keep them clean and in perfect running order. Highly recomend."
