    HOME OF THE FRIENDLIEST PEOPLE ON THE BAY 37º 12′ 20″ N 76º 26′ 11″ W August 2020 Volume #40, Number 8 WWW.SEAFORDYACHTCLUB.COM Hello SYC! We finally got to see each other in person last month. Maybe we should have a new directory made with pictures of everyone wearing their masks. It's sometimes hard to rec- ognize someone who you haven't seen in six months especially when they are wearing a mask. I had to do a few double takes to see and figure out who I was talking to! The twice postponed Flag Raising ceremony finally happened on July 12th. Past Commodore Cecil and Barbara Adcox did a wonderful job of decorating and adapting the event to meet the new Phase 3 guidelines. I guess boating season is finally open! Our new building is finally complete. The Fire Marshall's inspection passed, final inspection with York County passed, and we have a Certificate of Occupancy! It's been a long process but well worth it. The front of our Clubhouse gives an awesome first impression as you're driving onto the Club property. Inside decorating and furnishings are coming along. Junior Sailing got off to a great start (after a two week Coronavirus delay). Thanks Paul Hutter and Red Eilenfield for another great season. Due to the large number of people anticipated and concerns about social distancing on the spectator boats, the end of the year regatta has been canceled. Well, our joyride into Phase 3 didn't last too long. Due to the limitations imposed in the Governor's latest Executive Order 68, we had to postpone the Summer Party (August 1st ) and cancel the next regular monthly dinner (August 18th.).

PREFACE Since 1933 we have devoted practically all our leisure time to an intensive study of the butterflies of Virginia. We have regularly spent our annual leave in the State, stopping at various places from which each day we drove out into the surrounding country. In addition to prolonged visits of 2 weeks or more to various towns and cities, we spent many week ends in particularly interesting localities. We have visited all the 100 counties in the State at least twice, most of them many times, and our personal records are from more than 800 locali- ties. We have paid special attention to the Coastal Plain, particularly the great swamps in Nansemond, Norfolk, and Princess Anne Counties, and to the western mountains. Virginia is so large and so diversified that it would have been im- possible for us, without assistance, to have made more than a super- ficial and unsatisfactory study of the local butterflies.

Junior Sailing is in FULL SWING! A new generation of young explorers taking to the water for the first time to experience joy; Opti Sailors starting to build their foundation of boat handling and speed techniques; Radial/4.7 and c420 sailors are studying the rule book and how to make their boats faster. Chesapeake Experience and Inshore Keelboat are leading students on new adventures on the water. I LOVE IT! Nothing is more exciting to me than to see the HYC Club grounds bustling with junior sailing activities. This July 9-11, HYC is hosting the first of our big events for the 2021 season: the Junior Olympic Sailing Festival. Thanks to the CBYRA (Chesapeake Bay Yacht Racing Association) for allocating funds for a grant, HYC was able to hire some additional top-level coaches to spearhead the clinic the day leading up to the event to help everyone in our region advance. Following the Junior Olympics, will be the USODA Opti Team Race Na- tional Championships August 1-4. The Nationals will bring over 150 sailors from all over the country to HYC. The event requires an umpire team of 20 people with powerboats. I believe the Commodore reached out to the membership in June for assistance.
