Commodore’s Message
What an honor it is to serve as Commodore of CBYCA. Our member clubs are like families within the Association regardless of the size, location, amenities, priceless or quaint views. Our friendships and common passions for boating and the care of our waterways unites us. I pledge to respect the bonds already established and do what I can do to help strengthen them as we stand watch to protect each club from any threats and dangers that may arise.
This Roster Book publication is our biggest effort to help each of you learn about the members of your association family. I salute the efforts of our Rear Commodore Donna Ferron, Vice Commodore Dan Killeen and Past Commodore Gene Schenck along with many others for their hard work, organizational skills and commitment to complete this book to share with all our members.
Keeping our member clubs abreast of and analyzing proposals from lawmakers, regulators, and local officials in the five states and the District of Columbia, as well as the federal level is the responsibility of our Directors of State Legislation. For the outstanding work they do for our Association, we are very proud of all our legislation directors. Comments from ALL of you direct their efforts.
We are thankful for all our CBYCA partners. I applaud our relationship with them and praise their dedication and commitment to work together on mutually beneficial issues. My pledge in the coming year is to further enhance these relationships.
I'd like to thank Nick Noderer for all his support to the association and I am grateful he has become our new Acting Director of Safety and Education. This is an informative position for the purpose of expanding the knowledge of the association’s members in regard to recreational boater safety and general information relevant to clubs and their members.
Always in life there are circumstances and situations which guide us to be the best that we can be. In a couple years the term Coronavirus will just be a memory of the past, but this year, it is the term that halted America. Nevertheless, we are strong and we are resilient. We will get through this together and it will bring all our member clubs and their members closer together as we prepare our boats for the 2020 boating season.
I look forward to seeing you on the water and at your yacht club, Kyle Gray 2020 Commodore Chesapeake Bay Yacht Clubs Association

First, thank you to Chesapeake Bay Yacht Clubs Association (CBYCA) Vice Commodore Dan Killeen for his support, guidance, encouragement, and most of all his vision for the organization. Since I first became a CBYCA delegate for my sailing club almost a decade ago, I don’t think I’ve seen as much growth (along with a few growing pains) as has happened in the past year.
As VC Killeen helped CBYCA evolve, so have the following people helped the Chartroom Chatter Roster Edition evolve. Rose Marie Killeen seemingly effortlessly expanded the Royalty section to include both the Chesapeake Bay Queen and Pricesses as well as the DRYL Queen and Prin- cesses. New this year is an added blurb about each young woman that includes their goals and the charties that each supports. Rose Marie also wrote a three-part pagaent series for the monthly Chartroom Chatter. Jo Spencer, CBYCA Historian, helped bring historical context to some of our editorial decisions. She also provided invaluable editing skills. Legislative Director for Penn- sylvania and Delaware Chris Schenck, created the artwork for the uniform protocol pages, a request by many of you to return to the book. Thank you also to CBYCA Past Commodore Gene Schenck for contributions to the protocol and appointed and elected member pages.
VC Dan Killeen took the lead on the advertising and I’m grateful. Requesting, tracking, and organizing the ads for the book is time consuming. Any issues with ads rest on my shoulders, of course, but I absolutely needed the help. I hope everyone takes notice of both the returning and the many new advertisers and uses their services as much as possible.
Former Director, Safety and Education Tom Costello unfortunately had to resign from his posi- tion but he generously continued to provide technical assistance for the new roster database that he created and linked to the CBYCA website that he helped upgrade and update. Tom, along with CBYCA Treasurer Penny Rhine implemented a payment platform that made it easier for adver- tisers and patrons to pay online.
While VC Killeen steers the CBYCA ship into the future, Past Commodore Dion Guthrie made me more aware of the importance of remembering CBYCA’s past. Due to space limitations with the printed edition of the book, PC Guthrie’s request to have an expanded Past Commodores directory will be moved onto the website.
The organization welcomed several new clubs and partners as members this year. I look forward to meeting their representatives and determining how CBYCA can serve them.
Stay safe.
Donna
