Officer and Director Reports.
John Springer – Will try to have the Turkey race in the spring, weather and members being out of town was it’s downfall this year. It was suggested to have John Springer slide show from his summer at the annual meeting, usually a good turn out for that event.
Still have quite a few Regatta T-Shirts left over. Will either try and sell them and or use as door prizes.
Rich Munson – Thirteen possible attendee so far for the Christmas dinner. Rich will get with John Springer and start planning next years calendar of events. Steve Lowe suggested maybe a weather presentation for next year from a local meteorologist. The light wind sailing seminar had a good turnout this year. The third Friday social at Athena’s Greek restaurant was better than expected by the attending members.
Rick Walker – Showed off some party favors that he is planning to give out to members. for members at the annual meeting. Verified with the directors to continue with the Mexican buffet for the Annual Meeting
