This weekend, the Cottage Park Yacht Club is hosting the 15th Make-a-Wish Regatta to benefit the Make-a-Wish Foundation of Greater Boston.  This is a fabulous event that draws hundreds of sailors from across the state to compete and raise money for a great cause.  For the 6th year, Codfish Gear has designed and supplied the regatta t-shirts as well as made a donation of Codfish Gear and a custom made tote bag created from sail cloth by our Co-Founder Patricia McNamara-Vannoni to the event’s silent auction.  If you are in the area of CPYC this weekend, you should definitely stop by, bid on the auction items, buy some raffle tickets or even leave a donation for the cause.  It is in touch economic times like these that the Make-a-Wish Foundation needs our help even more.

This weekend was the World Football Challenge at Gilette Stadium, and two of the biggest rivals in world soccer, Inter Milan and AC Milan, where there to battle.  These two teams are like the Red Sox and Yankees in terms of their rivalry.  It turned out to be a beautiful day with the right team on top.  Inter scored within the first 5 minutes and never looked back.  In the end, Inter prevailed 2-0.  It was great to see my team win and we where both happy to have a Cod on Our Bod to keep the sun out of our faces.  There are more pictures on our Facebook fan page.  Tell everyone you know to become a fan of Codfish Gear on Facebook and LinkedIn.  We are trying to get both groups over 100 members!

I received a note and photo from one of our fans this week!  John and his wife Sharon recently made a trip down to the Bahamas, and John was sure to put a Cod on HIS Bod during the voyage.  After hearing about the days at the beach and swimming with Dolphins, I think the Bahamas sounds like a great vacation spot.  Thanks for the story John.  Your fan pack is on the way!

If you want to get a free fan pack, send us a picture of you with a Cod on Your Bod as well as a fish tale of your experience.  If we post it, we will send you a free Codfish Gear fan package in mail.

another with some fans taking in the view.  This group of yacht admirers aboard the Blue Blazer actually came from all over to see these ships, including Los Angeles, California, Connecticut, Minnesota and even Japan.  Departing from the Cottage Park Yacht Club, they braved the heavy water traffic to see the floating works of art.  They tell me there are more pictures to come.  I’ll be sure to post them here and on our Codfish Gear Fan page on Facebook for you to check out!  Take a note from this group of salty dogs and Put a Cod on Your Bod!
