But hold on . We will definitely be making up for this during our spring and summer months. So hang in there with us, there’s more fun to come! Yes, that’s right—more fun to come, starting with our Annual Opening Day event on April 7. Don’t miss this celebration of our fifty-first year! For our newer members and those new to the yachting community and protocol, this event kicks off the boating season with the installation of this year’s commodore. Opening Day ceremony and activities are planned and coordinated by Junior Staff Commodore, Tommy Wheeler. I hope you all will support this special event. Other notes of fun and progress for 2018: My letter last month reviewed several of the new community programs we are initiating at Navy Yacht Club Long Beach in support of our local veterans. Following our successful Long Beach VA Hospital PIER (Partnership In Effective Recovery) Center clothing drive in January, I met with representatives of Long Beach VA Hospital and initiated a partnership in support of their Women Veterans Program (WVP).
