ATTENTION,
RACING SAILORS:
The 2004 Sailing Instructions are posted on the Club website,
www.LGYC.COM. Click on Clubhouse, then click on Racing Rules.
The racing schedule is also on the website.
To be thoroughly informed, as specified in the sailing instructions,
skippers should check the official notice board in the front room
of the clubhouse several times each week. Any changes in race
schedule or sailing instructions are posted on the notice board.
Also, each racing boat (except Optis and Lasers) should have a
functional radio aboard to receive communications from the race
committee. The race committee may announce on the radio information
pertaining to premature starters, postponements, abandonments,
changes in fleet starting rotation, weather alerts, etc.
REAR COMMODORE'S
CORNER
The development of Club goals and objectives has made it possible
to start Club committee activity with a definable purpose.
The Social Committee is dedicated to re-invigorating the Club
with a sense of family and community and teams of committee members
are planning parties and events that will shake things up and
have fun. Nancy Blanchard chairs the social committee for
the Yacht Club and Dawn Ripkey is handling the Sailing
School events. Helping them are Julie Harrett, Kristen Freytag,
Julie Navin, Rachel Gage, Mary Jane Schalk, Mary Wruk, Amy Doubek,
Annie Huerth, Candace Burdick, Dianna Colman, Dana Porter, Annie
Porter, Jane Larson, Gloria Melges, Lilly Barrett, Linda Morris,
Michalene Melges, Suzanne Melges, Patti Davis, and Sara
Lamphere. Please contact Nancy or Dawn if you have time to
serve on the Social Committee.
The Site Plan Committee chaired by David Navin and including
Bud Melges, Bill Gage, Tom Freytag, Ken Wruk, Art Larson, Mike
Keefe, Jim Smith, and Scott Ripkey has assumed the
responsibility of examining our facility as a whole to improve
the site for the present membership, to attract new members, and
provide a world class sailing facility for decades to come. This
committee will be assisted by the Incorporation Committee, which
will work to determine our ability to raise money, i.e. figure
out what we can afford to do on the site.
Bill Barrett is leading the House and Grounds Committee,
assisted by Ann Drury on gardening and beautification.
They will lead us in our Spring Clean Up on May 22. Contact Bill
or Ann to pitch in.
Scott Ripkey, Nancy Blanchard, Dawn Ripkey, and Mark
Indyke make up the Food and Bar Committee. They'll be happy
to consider all suggestions and determine if they fit the budget.
Julie Navin has volunteered her experience in the retail
clothing business to chair the Clothing Committee. She will be
looking for new styles of Club and technical wear to keep us all
looking sharp.
I want to encourage each member to volunteer for a committee and
help to build new energy for the coming season. |
