On the afternoon of Saturday, July 26 Corinthian member, Deb Kuba, hosted a group of 40 or so guests, members and other four legged friends at her historic property, ‘Crooked Intentions’ on San Domingo Creek on the north shore of the Choptank River. Her house on the property dates back to the early 17th century, is registered in the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and is mentioned in Michener’s classic novel ‘Chesapeake. The event comprised an afternoon pot-luck picnic and cocktail party with Deb providing a guided tour of the house and property including a narration of its fascinating history.

Those arriving in shallow draft vessels were able to moor at her private dock while others anchored in the creek or docked in St. Michaels where the short walk south is less than a mile. Corinthian member, Ken Appleton, won the competition for the most original, fictitious and (it has to be said) highly scurrilous story of the origin of the ‘Crooked Intentions’ name. Many also stayed overnight to attend a Sunday morning ‘doggie’ event to recognize the four legged attendees.
