MAY 2019 BEACON

Once again, Mother Nature has not been cooperating for the Elite Brigade. The Island grounds have seen their fair share of rain, and in turn, making the walkway project a muddy mess. Despite this, it has not stopped the membership from plugging away and moving the project forward! I am overwhelmed by the attendance and the amount of work we accomplish in four short hours every Saturday. If you have not been to a work party, please consider joining us and lending a hand. Memorial Day weekend is just around the corner. This is a very special weekend at NCYC. Friday night kicks off with our first Friday night dinner; and back by popular demand is Tom the Bald Chef to cater our dinners on Friday evenings. Following the dinner -- and new this year -- is Kid’s Friday Night Movie Night hosted by Kevin and Erin Rae. Saturday morning starts off with a Weekday Manager and OD information meeting, followed by the First Mates General Membership Meeting and the Annual Patio Party for all of the NCYC membership to enjoy. Shortly afterwards, the General Membership Meeting is held, and the introduction of the new members to the NCYC family. The day continues into the evening with the Fitting Out Dinner and live entertainment.
