Hope you had a Merry Christmas and<br />
enjoyable Holiday Season.<br />
I wish you all a Happy, Healthy and<br />
Successful New Year!<br />
We want <strong>2011</strong> to be an active year for<br />
you in our yacht club. As a member<br />
of ALYC, you gain many benefits. You<br />
are eligible for reciprocal privileges at<br />
yacht clubs around the world. You can<br />
sail on the club’s boats in the harbor.<br />
You can participate in the club’s many quality events and activities.<br />
We welcome your participation as well as suggestions as to how we<br />
can improve our activities. Please feel free to contact me or any of our<br />
Board Members.<br />
We will kick off the year on Saturday, <strong>January</strong> 22, with the Commodore’s<br />
Ball featuring the Nick Peper Band. This popular event fills up<br />
quickly, so make your reservations early.<br />
The Commodore’s Ball will be followed by many quality events<br />
throughout the year, such as: Opening Day Celebration, Youth Sailing<br />
Program, <strong>Harbor</strong> and Ocean Races, Weekend Cruises, July 4th Old Glory<br />
Boat Parade, Electric Boat Rally, Wooden Boat Festival, and Sail for the<br />
Visually Impaired. Check our website for dates.<br />
We are working hard to improve our General Membership Meetings<br />
(GMMs). These meetings will be friendly, informal and interesting. We<br />
have a great lineup of nautical presentations planned for your enjoyment.<br />
Potlucks will follow these programs and will be hosted by our<br />
indispensable Seagals who support many of our activities throughout<br />
the year.<br />
This year GMMs will be held at 6:00 pm on the first Thursday of each<br />
even numbered month in the <strong>American</strong> <strong>Legion</strong> Yacht Club “HUT.” This<br />
includes the months of February, April, June, August, October and December.<br />
I appreciate the opportunity to be your <strong>2011</strong> Commodore. Let’s make<br />
this an active and successful yachting year!<br />
