APRIL 2019 BEACON

On March 10 th , NCYC was well represented by Flag officers, spouses and members at Mariners Church for the Blessing of the Fleet. It is truly an honor to be part of such a long-standing tradition in such a historical church. I share that blessing with all the membership for safe harbors and safe travels this season. It goes without saying that, it was also nice to spend time with some NCYC family members!! You can sure tell that the Spring Equinox has arrived at NCYC. Today (April 1st), Fin three is in the water and the contractor is hard at work replacing the siding on the upper half of the club house. They intend to be completed before the first Elite Brigade, making way for the membership to work on the other projects. The Ancient Mariners project, replacing the NCYC sign, is well underway and the First Mates project, installing air-conditioning in the kitchen wash-area is on target. There is also a small contingent busy planning and making sure that the walkway project along the new seawall unfolds without any glitches.
