Club updates:



Sailing:

The sailing club no longer has a secretary or keelboat captains. Matt is looking at appointing a heavy keelboat captain as well as a light keelboat representative. The sailing club finances are in the black - primarily due to great membership. The only part of the sailing club that is in the red is the keelboats...
