MARCH 2015 BEACON

From the Editor… As we enter into the first half of March the cold weather is starting to break. All members hope for the warmer weather, so we can plan on attending The Elite Brigades scheduled in April and Member Work Parties scheduled for May. Please come out and lend a helping hand to ready our club for the new boating season. I want to send out a special thank you to members Bill Edens, Director Kim Miedema, and my wife Jill Malik for posting and forwarding many photos from The Commodore’s Ball to be seen on the website and in the monthly Beacon. Your talent of photography is enjoyed by all ! Please look inside this issue for the up and coming events, First Mates Fashion Splash, Ancient Mariners By-laws, ABYA Boating Safety Seminars, and Club Calendar.
