   What happens at the Fall Banquet? This is the night where our business meeting is conducted and we elect officers for the following year. Invited beach managers and MBBA beach representatives report on how the season went and plans for the future. After the conclusion of the meeting an amazing dinner is served! After dinner there are some raffles including a 50/50, a fishing rod and baskets representing each beach! Then the party starts where the music is turned up and the dance floor is opened! 

  Thinking about what to wear? Dress to impress! Though there will not be a red carpet to walk, this event is still upscale. Leave the jeans and t-shirts at home, opt for a dress shirt, slacks or a dress!
