Causeway Classic Wooden Boat Show
May 18th at 11:00 am
Calling All Wooden Boat Owners and Enthusiasts
On Saturday, May 18th wooden boat owners as well as enthusiasts will gather to share their appreciation of boats and to honor a wooden boat lover; my dad, Chan Flowers.
As a young boy, Chan instilled in me a passion for these wooden boats; a passion that remains within me today, as I have bought and restored numerous of these timeless classics myself.
Two years ago, Chan was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks the body’s nerves. It can spread quickly throughout the body causing tingling, weakness and eventually paralysis. Chan is currently in a rehab facility where he fights daily to regain his strength and mobility as well to improve his overall condition; unfortunately, it’s a slow arduous process to rebuild damaged nerves.
Please join me as we enjoy these beautiful vessels, meet the owners who have restored them. I cannot think of a better way to help raise the much needed funds for Chan’s continued therapy than to celebrate these Mobile Causeway Classic Wooden Boats that truly a historical part of the Gulf Coast. –Channing Flowers
