MAY 2019 BEACON

Only a few short weeks to opening weekend. Sheila and I are so looking forward to reconnecting with our NCYC family! Our boat is in the water and spring commissioning is in process. We are looking forward to getting the maintenance and cleanup done so we can start enjoying our boating season. Springtime preparation on our clubhouse and grounds is in full swing. The Elite Brigade is making great progress on major projects including restoration of the Robison docks and walkway, installation of new flooring in the Boatique, assembly of the new outdoor playset and installation of our new sign in the North-West corner of the island. Special thanks to Al Douglas who seems to have taken on the role of full-time fin driver the past few weeks. There is still a tremendous amount of work to be done but, as always, the membership is stepping up in typical NCYC fashion. Please consider putting in your work hours early so we can be sure to have all the project completed by opening weekend. Hope to see many of you at the May work parties! R/C Glenn Nixon
