Cambridge Yacht Club - Message From The Commodore

Well the snow has almost left us, the days are getting longer and according to the calendar we are only 20 days away from spring. It can’t come fast enough if you ask me!

The Board welcomed two Board Replacements this month, Robin Willey and Joe Ruark. Robin will be Chairing the Membership Committee for us this year. If you have any questions or would like to help out please give Robin a call. We are now offering a Corporate Membership for anyone you know that may be interested

We tried something new in February by having entertainment in the lounge and I have to say everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves. I personally had the pleasure Saturday night of sitting in front of the fire place with the fire burning, Jerry Speace playing his six string guitar while he played the harmonica at the same time. It truly was an enjoyable experience! If you didn’t get the chance last month, watch the calendar for upcoming events, you don’t want to miss it.

As everyone is aware we have boat slips available, our Fleet Captain Mark Windmiller tells me we have all sizes available. If you know anyone interested give Mark a call. Keep in mind we are still offering a finders fee of $100.00 in the form of a credit to your account, for any one who recruits a new slip holder and $100.00 finders fee for a new member.

The General Membership Meeting was on February 20^th and went very well. I would like to thank everyone who attended for their positive comments and support. At the time we had several Members that offered to volunteer, but we were not prepared and didn’t think fast enough to pass out a pen and paper. If anyone is interested in helping out we will have a note pad in the office or your may email me at rodneytravers@comcast.net and let me know what you would be interested in helping out with. First on the priority list is a Secretary, other Committees are Public Relations, Membership, Entertainment, Sailing, Docks and here’s one we haven’t heard of in a while, Shipmates.

Miss C.Y.C. is coming up and we are seeking Contestants. The date is set for April 17 and Jude has the Entry Forms in the office.

One final note, look on the back of the monthly letter as sometimes the office prints things on the other side

Respectfully Submitted

Rodney Travers

Commodore C.Y.C .
