Bird Key Yacht Club members were decked out in denim and plaid April 13.

On Saturday night, the club hosted “Boots 'n' Bling.”

As partygoers arrived, they posed for photos with Peppy the horse before heading inside for cocktail hour and dinner. Later, as live music was performed, Mary Finegold gave the club members line dancing lessons.
