COMMODORE – February 2012
Dear Members.
So far winter has been good to us, lets hope the next six weeks are as warm &
snow free!
Thanks to our member Peter Prosek for installing the new door to the clubhouse.
Great job! Because of his efforts anyone doing guard duty for work hours can
now do them from inside the clubhouse. Please contact George Gomez for
information on guard duty at 203-206-0180.
Congratulations to Tom Kacin, Thomas Guglielmo, and Stephanie Polke for
completing their 1 year probation period successfully. Welcome to the
membership! Also, welcome to Pat Notarnicola and Manny Moura, who were
sworn in as probationary members at our January General Body meeting. I look
forward to seeing our new members along with long time members at events that
are planned for this coming year. We try to have something for everyone: Our
Ladies Auxiliary put on wonderful parties for our children, paid in part by their
fundraisers, so please support their efforts. We would like to see more
participation from our members at all of our events such as the upcoming
Valentine's Brunch on Feb. 12th. There will be a fishing rod & reel raffle at this
event. We are getting estimates on bringing "A" dock up to speed. We will be
raising money to fund that effort with a raffle to be held on Rib Night April 14th.
You can "Win Your Slip Fee" for this year! Don't forget the Fish Fry on March
9th! As you can see there is always something going on at MYC, so please come
down and enjoy what the club has to offer. You can find information on all events
in the news letter & posted in the clubhouse.
Until next month.
Sincerely,
Jerry Tomaszewicz
Commodore MYC
There will be an election held at a Special Meeting @7:00pm ( 19:00 ) before
