SEPTEMBER 2019 BEACON

Just a reminder to everyone to please read and follow the instructions for the voting ballots. Unfortunately, year after year, we have unqualified ballots. Please make sure that your vote counts! Excerpt from the By-Laws; Two envelopes will be sent with each official ballot; (a) a plain, inner envelope with no identifying marks, and (b) an outer envelope pre-addressed to the Secretary with a place for the member’s name and roll number in the upper left-hand corner. The member must seal his/her ballot in the plain, inner envelope, then enclose it in the official outer envelope, marked with his/her name and number before the start of the election meeting. Following the Haul Out weekend, we will be holding two Saturday work parties to ready our Island Treasure for the coming winter months. Dates are October 12th and October 19th. Please mark your calendars and plan on attending -- this will be your last chance to complete your four-hour work requirement. If you have already fulfilled your four-hour requirement, please consider joining us and lending a hand, there is much to accomplish is two short weekends.

See you on the Island, Commodore Ian
