2014 January Beacon

From the Editor…

Here we are, Year 2014 – as we let the holiday season of 2013 sail past us, I want to wish all the NCYC members a healthy and prosperous New Year! As your new Director of Publications & Beacon Editor, I look forward to servicing the club. In this role, I am the voice and bulletin board for the North Channel Yacht Club membership. If there is ever any news, information, or comments a member would like to share or post – please just let me know? I want to thank P/C Don Vanover and his wife Barb for the wonderful leadership and guidance they gave the club last year! Thank you to Greg Brigman, for his excellent work in Publications last season. I greatly appreciate the training and support you have given me in handing over the publications torch. There is a tremendous amount of learning in this role, but I am up for the challenge (...G.B., stay close to your phone…ha, ha). I am excited to stand next to another great team of elected Flag Officers, Board of Directors, Appointments and Committees. I wish Commodore John Anderson and his lovely Lady Beverly, best of luck in leading NCYC in 2014 – you will do a fine job! Plus, you will have a strong team supporting you all the way.

In closing, I hope all the members have a safe and sound winter season – and let’s keep thinking spring!

Wishing you all the best,

Brent Malik Director, Publications
