October Beacon

Election time for NCYC is now upon us. I hope everyone had a chance to listen to the candidates' speeches or read their bio's, and to speak to each candidate regarding their views and opinions with respect to the club's business. Make sure to cast your vote and to thank each of these members who stepped up to volunteer a great deal of their time over the next several years. A very busy September has come and gone. What a great month of activities we had at the island. Starting with Labor Day weekend festivities, Kid's campout, the Smoke off, Island rendezvous and the Commodore’s golf outing.

I would like to say a big "thank you" to all the weekend and week managers for another great job this year. Thank you to the First Mates and Ancient Mariners for your efforts and contributions. And thank you to the Board of Directors and all of the members who volunteered their time, talents, and efforts throughout this year. It is that time of year again. Time to begin preparations for preparing the club for the offseason. We need all of you to come out to the work parties on October 12 & 19, 2013. A large amount of work needs to be done winterize the clubhouse and put everything away for winter. It is an enjoyable time of the year and a lot of fun.
