Annual Member Meeting
Important Information

As you will have heard in the Fireside Chat, the Board is recommending that the Annual Member’s Meeting be postponed until the end of October.

There are a number of important projects underway, not least of which are the new clubhouse and our partnerships with the harbor, PYSF, and the new restaurant. Many of these projects will be finalized by the end of September or early October. The board would like to be able to report on those and offer them up for member approval at the Annual Member’s Meeting.

Therefore the Board is going to ask the membership to approve a change of date from September 17th (the date defined in the bylaws) to October 29th.

At this meeting, a number of additional business items will be addressed including:

Ratification by the members of new Director Dana Sanderson
Creation of additional committees
- Nominating
- Water Activities
- House Rules and Regulations
- Building Committee

Members wishing to join any of these committees should contact the Secretary.

Members with any other business for the Annual Members Meeting should submit their items to the Secretary.

On Monday, 13th of September, Full Members will receive an electronic ballot with one question on it asking if members approve the delay of the Annual Member’s Meeting until October 29th.

If you have any questions, please contact the Secretary.

Postponed
September Pub Quiz
We’ll do this later in the month

Apologies: tonight’s Pub Quiz has to be postponed to the 24th.

This month’s pub quiz will have some fun facts, strange stories, interesting insights, and general goofiness. Join us and have your brain teased. This month’s question: what comes next in the series: Ivy, Exed, Four Seas, … ?

Join us on the helipad at 5:30 pm on Saturday, September 18th for a special live performance by Sargon John Isaac. We will have a fun event with music, jokes, and his very special personal style. Sargon is a single performer so sitting closer to the helipad will be possible for this event.

He is an entertainer with a great voice and a fabulous personality. Sargon was formally the lead singer and showman for many bands and orchestras in England for many years. He was the opening act for top stars like Tom Jones, Englebert Humperdink, Glen Campbell, The Drifters, and many more. In the 70’s he socialized with Ozzie Osbourne, the Black Sabbath, as well as other famous musicians. Sargon plays all styles of music from soul, country, R&B, swing, and more. Feel free to make special requests!

We will not have a food truck this time and you are all invited to bring your picnic baskets, blankets, and chairs. We are implementing additional safety protocols again to help with the safety of all.

Please join in this very fun performance and enjoy our ongoing outdoor entertainment series. It is guaranteed to be a very fun afternoon.
