Summer Sailstice
The Friends of the Governor Stone (FOGS) will be hosting their first ever Summer Sailstice in Panama City, Florida on Saturday, June 22. Since the 1877 Governor Stone schooner is still being rebuilt after being destroyed in Hurricane Michael in 2018, we will be using a 42' Pathfinder sailboat to experience the beautiful Gulf waters in St. Andrews Bay.
This event is open to the general public with a $20 donation. FOGS members sail for free. Food & drinks can be brought onboard. All proceeds go towards the rebuilding of the National Historic Landmark, 1877 Governor Stone S/V. For more info, call 850-541-8176
