Renee and I would like to thank everyone who attended the 2015 Commodore’s Ball. We had
a great time and we were very happy we could share such a special night with such great
friends and family. For those of you who couldn’t make it, we missed you and based on how
full the dance floor was all night long you missed one heck of a party! Thanks Soul Provider for
the awesome performance. Many thanks to everyone who helped us pull off this event, and to
all of you who came in Saturday morning for set up. Congratulations to Ian Blackburn & Marie
Pepin for their Spirit Award and Diane French for the Member of the Year Award. Both richly
deserved for all their hard work and dedication.
2015 projects are already under way. The Point of Sale (POS) system has arrived! Ian
Blackburn our supplies director has been communicating with the manufacturer and has
provided them our menu, which will be loaded on our system just in time for our first training
session in February. All of the components for the new PA/Music system have also been
ordered and will be at the clubhouse for us to begin installation at the first Elite Brigade party.
We will also have the components for the heat and air on hand as well. Hopefully everyone
will pitch in their time and expertise to complete all of these projects before opening weekend.
The 2015 work schedule is filling up. All members, if you haven’t already, need to send your
top three choices for a work weekend to our Secretary Randy Pagel so that he can complete
the schedule. If you are interested in managing for a week, contact PC Harley Burris. There
are still three weeks open.
NCYC has a couple of winter events coming up. Both are a great opportunity to get together
and enjoy great company. First is the 5th Annual NCYC Ski/Snowmobile weekend at Shanty
Creek. It should be a great time! Next is the ABYA Spring Rendezvous in Midland. This
weekend always promises to be a lot of fun. I'm sure this year will be no exception. Watch
your fan outs and the Beacon for details on both of these great events.
