Publications – Ron Draper The Rosters were mailed out. Future consideration needs to distribution and spare Rosters. It was recommended that next year we consider preselling Rosters. Cost was approximately $11.24 each this year. Also, we could consider publishing rosters without member contact information for sale in the Boatique. There was discussion that people on the waiting list should receive the Beacon. There are fewer advertisers this year, and we need suggestions to find more advertisers. It was suggested that we put a flyer together to show visitors what’s around; it could include local restaurants, and we could charge a nominal fee for them to advertise. Secretary – Glenn Nixon Absent – No Report. Supplies – Dale Hall We’re up just over 7% in sales for the first 16 weeks. We have increased in all categories, except for popcorn. The new popcorn is expected by the end of July. Transportation – Darryl Campbell No Report. Fleet Captain – P/C Tom McHugh Approximately 50 people attended the Commodore’s Cruise and had a great time. Christmas in July will be at the club this weekend. The MacRay Rendezvous is coming up on 18-20 August. There are still wells available, but they have been opened up to the public. The Old Club Fleet Captain contacted Tom and discussed our reciprocal agreement. Our members are only allowed to visit the Old Club on a reciprocal basis during the week. Weekend visits must be pre-planned by anyone visiting the Old Club, including their members. Additionally, it is important that visitors understand the rules of the Old Club and present themselves appropriately. The Old Club rules and policies will we summarized in the Beacon and posted on the board so that our membership is better informed of what’s expected when they visit the Old Club. II. OLD BUSINESS Incoming Rendezvous: The Put-In-Bay Yacht Club asked to visit NCYC with 5 boats on 3-5 August. The Board discussed that there are several others will be visiting in that time frame, and there is need to preserve well for our own membership.
