2021 - December Beacon

From the Bridge – Vice Commodore Dale Hall

I want to thank Commodore Glenn, Rear Commodore Brian, and the Board of Directors for everything we

accomplished in 2021. I also want to thank the board members that are concluding their term, we truly appreciate your dedication to NCYC. Thank you to the new members elected to the Flag and the Board of Directors, we have many things to accomplish in 2022. Special thanks to the First Mates for making such a great year out of what could have been a very tough and challenging year. All the fund-raising activities, all the meals and all the hard work is a shining example of what makes NCYC so successful. Thank you for everything you do! I would like to remind all members that your work hours are very important to NCYC. It is difficult for the OD to accommodate everyone’s schedule when they are developing their weekend work schedule. It is critically important that you stay in contact with the Weekend OD and reach out to them early if you need to make ANY changes to your scheduled weekend hours. Our NCYC (Working Club) also needs your help every year opening and closing the island. All members are required to work 4 hours in either the Spring or the Fall. If you plan a special activity that exempts you from these 4 work hours, it is imperative that you share that information with a member of the Flag or the Membership Director. We truly need your thoughts, ideas and strong back to improve our great yacht club.
