March 2014 Beacon - page 7

Will winter ever quit
? Since the ground hog saw his shadow I
guess we’re not done for many more weeks. I keep my focus by
remembering that each day brings us one day closer to boat launch,
deeper water and “here we go again”, it can’t come fast enough for
me
.
Although I’m not bowling myself, I go each moth to support Sandi
and her team and spend time with my NCYC family. Even if you
don’t bowl I recommend that you come to the alley and say hi. It’ll
put a smile on your face and we would love to see you!!
I attended the Detroit Boat show as a kind of therapy. Although it’s
not the grand event it once was for larger Great Lakes boats, it still
gets the ”I want spring” juices flowing and you can always find
something new to spend money on for your boat.
I know I did. While at the show you can never get through the building without seeing several
of our NCYC members doing the same. I do want to give a special thank you to Pete and Pam
Poirier. Pete and Pam are at the show every year representing their home port of Jefferson
Beach Marina. However, they use that platform and opportunity to promote NCYC to a very
large audience. As you watch the video that Peter produced it has NCYC allover it along with
faces of several of our members and their boats. They love to share the NCYC experience
with any one they can. Thank you Pete and Pam!
The 2014 First Mates fashion show is scheduled for 4-26-2014. Ladies please be sure to
support them by coming to this fun event and bringing 20 of your closest family and friends.
It’s a great winter break and opportunity to see your NCYC family.
The Commodore continues to firm up the 2014 calendar, please keep an eye on it as it’s
published. Let’s be supportive of those who work so hard to put on these events for our
membership. So mark your calendars with the ‘save the dates’ for those activities and events.
If you would like to see something that is not on the list of events please speak up and let your
Activities Director know.
I continue looking forward to the countdown to the 2014 launch date (37 days), hot sun, deep
water and the sound of the bell.
