Club News
Put your feet up and read about all that is happening at BYSC!!
• I am pleased to report that the club has hired a grounds assistant. Randy Hannold is very skilled. Randy, Chuck and vol- unteers are starting to make some headway on backlogged projects. I will still be calling for volunteers . Keep your eyes open for emails as projects come online. • Thanks to John Potter and helpers, the kitchen cabinets are in place and he will soon install pantry shelving. As I write this message, Marilyn Marino and Abbey Newton are in the kitchen filling the cupboards. This will complete kitchen work for this spring. • New fans with lights have been installed on the porch. One remote controls all fans and built-in dimmer lights. The re- mote is located next to the wall switches. Please return the remote to its holder. It has a tracking device, so don’t take it home. • We are starting to recycle. A bin is located behind the bar and in the kitchen. We will recycle clean glass, aluminum cans plastic containers, paper and carboard. • The BYSC dumpster and recycling bins are for club use only. Do not bring trash or recycling from home. • It was noticed at the last few Sunset Fridays that some members were enjoying the food, but did not bring any to share. Some members who brought food last Friday to share did not get any. Members are not required to bring food, but must do so if they plan to eat.
Private Rentals • When members and non-members rent club facilities such as the cook shed, pool pavilion, oyster area, porch and clubhouse, they have exclusive use of designated area (s). Unfortunately some members have not been respect- ing this and some private events have been disturbed. To inform members, we will post signs asking members not to use enter specific facilities. If the clubhouse is rented, members and visitors will need to use the restrooms in the pool house. The pool house is open year-round and 24 hours a day. Thank you for helping the club respect special events that take place at the club.
Pool Opens April 21 • Thanks to volunteers the pool will soon open. This early in the season there are no lifeguards on duty.
Swimming Pool Hours of Operation Based on weather or other factors, the pool hours may be modified. Monday- Thursday Friday -Sunday April-May 9:00am to 5:00pm 9:00am to 7:30pm June 9:00am to 8:00pm 9:00am to 8:00pm July 9:00am to 8:00pm 9:00am to 8:00pm August 9:00am to 8:00pm 9:00am to 8:00pm September 9:00am to 5:00pm 9:00am to 8:00pm

BYSC /JSB OPEN HOUSE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We are doing things differently this year and are offering guests the opportunity to not only tour our club but to also test it out! • • We are going to have sailboat rides, short trials on paddle boards and kayaks, and the pool available during the open house. This is also a chance for members to experience some different aspects of the club that they haven’t tried before. If you are considering having your kids in the summer camp or Learn to Sail, bring them out and have them try out the boats. Or, if you are a member, but have never tried sailing or paddling, come out and try it! We are looking to have an enthusiastic turn out!
• While visitors are experiencing some of the fun activities at our club, we also want to show off that our members are really what make the club great.
• We are looking for the following volunteers to talk up the club and to help make the open house run smoothly. • Registration table (12:30 - 3pm) • 2 volunteers needed to sign people in and have them sign a wavier before participating. • Boats (12:00 - 3pm + launching) • **low tide is at 12:30pm so the boats will be launched earlier in the day and tied up to a dock** • 2 volunteers to help with life jackets and switching guests out on the docks • 2 volunteers to help bring kayaks/SUPS to the beach and dock and paddle during the event to provide on the water help • 2 volunteers to launch the Ranger 22 and take guests on rides • 2 volunteers to rig and prepare either JY15s or 420s and take guests on rides • Safety Boat (12:30 - 3pm + launching if needed) • 2 volunteers to help with patrol the area on a safety boat and assist on the water as needed • Tour Guides (12:30 - 3pm) • 2 volunteers to take guests on tours of the facility • We would also love to have kids who have attended summer camp or Learn to Sail come out and share their experience!

"AH, THE SAILING LIFE"
"Ah, The Sailing Life" is the theme we are using for the 2017 Lowcountry Regatta. You will see it on competitor shirts and banners.
It was chosen as way for BYSC to join the movement in sailing to renew sailing as a sport. Like golf many sports find themselves suffering from reduced participation. Causes range from the "financial crisis" to competition with other sports that can be done by individuals. Family costs for children sport activities have sky rocketed. Family time has become a scarce commodity.
Family sailing is thought to be a way clubs like ours can do their part. Last year, if you attend- ed the Lowcountry Regatta you would have seen many more young people sailing as compared to adults. I would guess 10 children to 1 adult. That is amazing!
The problem comes later when young folks who have learned to sail, enjoy racing but do not carry the sport into adulthood. Or they are proficient sailors who take courses at charter companies to charter boats. Sailing is not like riding a bike, once you can do it you always can, but it is pretty close. A refresher in sailing is all that is required to get back on the water. "After all, in sailing it’s not the going out, it’s the ability to get back".
When that is accomplished, "Ah, The Sailing Life" is thought and heard.

"I'm planning on bringing my 44' Pearson Countess down from Cape Cod Massachusetts to Beaufort at the end of Sep- tember and I'm looking for a 4th crew. Aquarius is ketch rigged, designed by John Alden and built by Pearson in Bristol RI in 1969. She's been well taken care and can easily carry 4 crew. I'm looking for someone that has experience in sailing large sailboats, offshore experience would be a plus. The schedule is weather permitting and right now we intend to stay outside the Gulf Stream and come straight down taking about 2 weeks (again weather permitting) or longer depending on schedules and time available. If you are interested please email me at [email protected].
