Commodore Phelps Social Committee: Chili Jed Mooney - Social Chair Breaking News: UM vs. MSU Football game to kick off at 7:30pm on Sat. Oct. 7! After a long status at TBD on the two universities’ schedules, fans now can prepare for an evening match-up, as opposed to the early afternoon contest preferred by UM’s Coach Jim Harbaugh. What does this mean for GTYC? It means we can finalize plans for this year’s Annual UM-MSU Football Tailgate Party & Chili Cook-Off: 6:30pm Saturday, October 7. The GTYC bar will be open from noon that day during the afternoon for the spectator crowd at the Cornwell Memorial High School Sailing Regatta, and, once the regatta is over and awards . awarded, we will set up serving tables to lay out the tailgate party food & chili cook-off entries for the 6:30 feeding start. Sampling & voting on your favorite chili dishes will continue through the first half of the game, with the votes being tallied and results announced during half-time -- Prizes: 50% of door to 1st Place, 20% to 2nd Place, 10% to 3rd Place -- plus the usual additional Games of Chance (“Squares”) opportunities to win $$$ during the game. Whip up your favorite award-worthy chili recipe and/or tailgate food item, gather the family and friends, and spend the evening sampling all of the goodies and cheering your gridiron heroes on to victory! -- $5 at the door (kids under 13 free). Key Fob & Parking Page Heather VanStratt Key Fobs Our current security key fob system is antiquated and we are no longer able to program key fobs for new Active Members. We will be installing a new reader pad to our door when the majority of fobs have been distributed. In an effort to offset a portion of the cost of the new entry system, the Board voted to charge a one time fee of fifteen dollars per fob. Every Active membership will be issued one new fob. Additional fobs are available for purchase. We will send out notification when the new door hardware has been installed. In the meantime, please use your existing fob for entry to the building. Parking Lot Clings The parking committee has worked over the last year to maximize our available parking. We will be issuing parking clings for Active memberships. These clings are to be placed on the driver-side windshield bottom corner. The clings will be used to track parking lot usage, and inform future parking lot decisions. Moving forward the clings will become essential in parking in the primary lot. Social Committee Jed Mooney - Social Chair CRAFTERS NIGHT: The first Crafters Night of the Fall will be Wed. Oct. 11, with some rope splicing demonstration & instruction included as a special attraction among the other crafts of choice. Starting in November (11/1/17) Crafters Nights will move to their traditional “1st Wednesday of the month” schedule through April. Keep an eye on your GTYC updates e-mails for announcements of special interest crafting programs. As mentioned above, the Cornwell Memorial High School Sailing Regatta will be held at GTYC on Sat., Oct. 7. The following Sat. & Sun., Oct. 14 & 15, GTYC will host the Michigan High School Sailing Championships. These events make for some interesting spectating, as we have an opportunity to see the future of our sport interacting & competing. A great way to partake in a good dose of sailing camaraderie – and rumor has it there will be socializing catalysts in the form of adult beverages available to the adult spectators during both of these sailing events. Anyone interested in helping out with creative planning and participation in GTYC Social activities should contact Jed Mooney ([email protected]) – we could use more crew & a boat load of fresh ideas as we crank up for the winter social season and go into 2018 with a full sails! For instance – would someone like to step up and organize the monthly Euchre parties anew? Misc. Ramblings PC40 Misc Ramblings PC40 Ahhh SUMMER . finally arrived!!! What an interesting weather pattern we have experienced this past few weeks. I’ve heard predictions of both heavy and light winter ahead so who knows what we’ll get. Last Friday, the 22nd, was the Autumnal Equinox somewhere around 4 pm. Welcome to FALL!!! Did you know that you can balance eggs on their ends on either Equinox. I got one to balance the day before, but didn’t have time to play around on Friday. Had a very enjoyable Labor Day weekend doing my 20th and LAST Red Fox Regatta as PRO on board Duchess, a 46’ Bertram and a great platform for RC. Both Jeff and Mary Ann Maier were aboard along with Charlie Harrett from Boyne City and Rich Hodgson, owner of Duchess. We had a great time although the wind pooped on Saturday and we had to shorten course at Horton Bay, but Sunday was a full course all the way to the A Mark in front of the Depot. Participation was up slightly this year which is encouraging. I’m heading to Gull Lake for a few days to Chair the Protest Committee for the Star Vintage Gold Cup Regatta with 12 classic wooden Stars entered. Among the entrants are none other than Paul Cayard and Mark Reynolds, both well known Star World Champions and Olympic Gold Medalists. The Star Class has a rich tradition having competed in the Olympics as the Mens Keelboat until recently. (continued on next page) Misc. Ramblings PC40 Misc Ramblings (continued) How many of you have and use AIS??? AIS stands for Automatic Identification System and comes in many forms. I used the one on Liberty during a delivery to Chicago a couple of years ago and it worked quite well. We had a few alerts, but never saw a boat due to the haze that limited visibility to a mile or two. Here’s a recent article from Sailing Scuttlebutt that explains AIS nicely. http://www.sailingscuttlebutt.com/2017/09/11/review-automatic-identification- systems/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Scuttlebutt%204915%20- %20September%2012%202017&utm_content=Scuttlebutt%204915%20- %20September%2012%202017+CID_b121412098d8f3f82ea60560b3e80483&utm_source=Emai l%20Newsletter&utm_term=Details All of you weather geeks and long distance sailors will enjoy this article titled “Tale of Two Downbursts” It is written by Mark Thornton who has a company called Lake ErieWX Marine Weather Blog and he is the race meteorologist for the Bell’s Beer Bayview Mackinac Race. The story talks about the weather events that highlighted this year’s Chicago-Mac race. http://lakeeriewx.com/blog/tale-of-two-downbursts/ We’ve got two High School regattas coming up in October. The Cornwell Memorial is Oct 7th. The Michigan State High School Championship is Oct 14 & 15. Both should be well attended so come out and help out or just jump on a boat and watch. And, the TACS Fundraiser is on Nov 11th at the Club so make plans now for a fun evening. Not sure you’ll get this in time, but the ICE Yacht Club’s first meeting is Tuesday, Oct. 3rd, at the Club. Come join us and learn about the fastest sailing on the planet!!! Fall Clean-up Building and Grounds FALL CLEAN UP at GTYC OCTOBER 21, 2017 We are often reminded that our club is comprised of energetic members whose focus is toward water and boating. As Fall progresses our focus adjusts, for at least a few hours, to pride of ownership. Past Clean Up Days have proven that we stare a group of generous and talented volunteers! Saturday, October 21 , from 8:00 a.m. until around noon, we will gather to clean, polish, weed, and repair the building and grounds. Sign Up job sheets will be waiting for you in the entry hall and we will be delighted to share your company for an hour or all morning. st If you cannot be present on the 21 , consider contacting the Building& Grounds Committee to arrange another time. Some jobs, like pressure washing the building exterior or cleaning the parking lot, are most effectively done with fewer people around. Participants who expect to work on landscaping may want to arrive with their own tools. Coffee will be available. Please contact the committee if you could donate some quick-to-eat snacks. A few vehicles will be on the grounds to accommodate utility trailers and landscaping materials. Otherwise, we request that you park across M-22, in the lot off Carter Road, to keep the area open to volunteer work.

His job is to make sure when you drive away after a service at BMW Sydney, your car looks as good as the day you drove it off the showroom floor. And we can honestly say, when it comes to detail, no one is as driven as John. Of course, he's not alone. He's only one of five staff dedicated to this sole task. And obviously, we do mean dedicated. It's quite selfish really, but we've always believed that if you look good, so do we.

  • Brunch Ronda Nuzum Photos He Easter Bunny Arrived Just in Time to Greet the Very Excited ABYC Children at the Annual Easter Brunch
    May 2007 Official Publication of Alamitos Bay Yacht Club easter Volume 80 • Number 5 brunch Ronda Nuzum photos he Easter Bunny arrived just in time to greet the very excited ABYC children at the annual Easter Brunch. Fortu- nately, Eric Conn and Merle Asper were there well before the popular rabbit and hid eggs all around the Yacht club Tgrounds. The kids, dressed in their Easter finest, also had the opportunity to have their pictures taken with the bunny and received a bag of Easter goodies. Meanwhile, up on the second deck, an elegantly displayed Eas- ter brunch offered so many choices that many diners had to come back for a second plate. Jesus and Kelly and the rest of the staff out did themselves with both traditional and Mexican brunch favorites. Many com- pliments were heard as to the quality and variety of the food. According to George and Bob Anderson, who were serving pan- cakes, the chocolate chip variety was extremely popular. Dan DeLave and Eileen who served Jesus’ Mexican spe- cialties said they had a hard time keeping up with the de- mand. Mean- while, in the Stacy Conn’s creative table setting kitchen John Massy and Sue McDannel were amazed at how popular the freshly cooked crispy bacon was with members and guests. Jim Bateman and Bill McDannel poured champagne and mixed mimosas to the delight of the holiday crowd. Also filling in wherever help was needed were Diane Bateman, Carol and Glen Selvin and Nicole and Steve Moffett. Chris Ericksen did his usual masterful job as maitre‘d and Kim Atwood, who was sworn to secrecy as to E.
