Jimmy Buffett at Le Select on Sunday

The owner of Le Select in St. Barths, Marius Stakelborough, finished his three day celebration of his 60th anniversary in grand style on Sunday. His good friend Jimmy Buffett stopped by to shoot the champagne cork at a bee that hangs over the bar - a very long tradition at Le Select.
A nice friend took a picture of me next to Marius and Jimmy in the background.
Back in February Marius was very kind to let me hang the St. Hazards flag at Le Select. And here's a great photo of Jimmy near the flag.
Jimmy was most graciuos and spent lots of time with his fans. We all thank him for that.
Amazingly, Marius is now 86 yrs. old and partied for the three days with extra high energy.

Jimmy Buffett to celebrate our friend's 60th anniversary in St. Barths.

Back in 1949, 60 years ago, our goof friend Marius Stakelborough started a small bar in St. Barths called LeSelect. It's become one of the most popular and well-known bars in the Caribbean. Marius has also become good friends with us at St. Hazards and even made the 2,000 mile journey to visit in 2006.

The big party to celebrate the 60th will be Nov. 6, 7 and 8th. Jimmy Bufett and Marius also have become good friends since Jimmy lived on St. Barths many years ago. He's even bringing his entire Coral Reefer Band to put on a free concert as part of the party. Here's the first look at the poster for this concert plus a few photos of LeSelect. The photo of Jimmy was taken at one of the beaches on St. Barths. You can see the St. Hazards flag on the inside view of LeSelect.

We hope to post photos from the big party in November.

This photo was taken looking towards Ballast Island from the St. Hazards condos. All of the condos have a balcony that faces the water, so all have this same view.

St. Barths' LeSelect Celebrates 60th anniversarry

Back in 1949, Marius Stackelborough started the first real business on St. Barths and called it LeSelect.

LeSelect was a a bar, restaurant, bookstore, music shop and the gathering place on this small island about 1,000 miles southeast of Miami.

The King of Sweden, the Rockefeller family, Jimmy Buffett and thousands of others all have spent quality time at this unique Caribbean hangout.

And back in 1995, the developer of St. Hazards stopped by and was forever changed by this very special place. So much so that St. Hazards was created and inspired by what Marius created.

One of our greatest moments was when Marius made a special visit to St. Hazards in 2006.
Pictured here are four special friends that developer Ed (in the middle with Jeff and Kitty on the left and Bridget and John on the right) met in St. Barths and have made several visits since then to Middle Bass Island.

A big party for the 60th is expected in early November with Jimmy Buffett present. We hope to have some good pictures from that party.

Middle Bass Volleyball and Cornhole Tournament

St. Hazards was host to another volleyball tournament this year. This one also had a cornhole competition and was held on the St. Hazards lakefront property. Plans are underway for another tournament next June and August, so keep checking in for details. These events are always more than good volleyball, but also about great Island Fun.
