From The Bridge
O nce again, it is great to see the Club come back to life as the warm
weather is finally here. The marina is filling up as we get ready to offi-
cially start the season. Please join your fellow Club members as we hold our Commissioning Ceremony on Saturday, May 13, 2016 at 1800 hours. After
the ceremony, you are invited to stay and enjoy an evening featuring an ala
carte menu and music provided by the Ken Trapp Duo.
As you may have noticed, we are continuing to improve the facilities in an-
ticipation of the official start of the season. A new walkway and entry steps
have been installed as well as improvements to the men’s restroom. As I write this, the new canvas awning is being installed. I can’t help but think of
the condition of the Clubhouse after hurricane Irene and superstorm Sandy
and where we are today. I would like to thank all of the members, officers and directors that got involved and tackled big projects to get the Club back in shape after those
two storms. We all can take pride in the improvements to the Club.
Please mark your calendar for a few upcoming events in June. The Commodore’s Ball will be held on Saturday, June 10, 2017 and the annual Blessing of the Fleet will be held on June 18, 2017. De-
tails will be forthcoming for both events.
Finally, a Red Cross blood drive will be held on June 19, 2017 in memory of Past Commodore Frank Bayers.
