Officer and Director Reports.

 

 

 

Ben Hooks – Noted that our current Commodore Rick Walker sold his lake lot and boat and will discuss with him future intentions regarding the LPYC going forward. Ben will also contact the new owner of the lot and sailboat, in addition to the voice mail inquiry to the LPYC. The club also accepted the membership application of Brent and Karen Boyle.

Some repairs to the pontoon trailer need to be made in case we need to pull the barge out. Suggested repairs include upgrading the hitch to a 2 inch ball, and a tongue jack stand. Tires are old and cracked, but no advantage to replacing them now. The mast hoist cable also needs replacing as it is rusty. These repairs can wait till the fall.

 

Old Business

Slip Waiting List:

 

Steve Lowe – Different slip if one becomes available.

David Kinsey.

 

 

New Business

 

Seminar on Electricity on Boats and Docks:

 

Mark Bartlett will offer a presentation on electrical safety on boats and docks. The event is scheduled for Friday,May 20th, at Smoke Monkey in Flint Texas. Ashley Tackett will send out invites.

 

July 4th Celebration:

 

Discussed the possibility of having an event for July 4th at the point at Emerald Bay. Currently two groups stage fireworks at Emerald Bay, although there is some discussion on combining them. More discussion will be held at the June meeting closer to July 4th.

Overnight Raft-up:

 

An overnight raft-up was moved to November 12th to void any conflict with any other scheduled events. Chimney Creek Cove is suggested as the location as it is well protected and has easy access for people not spending the night to return to shore.

Date and Time of Next Meeting:

 

With many of the directors gone on the road or water for the summer, and the importance of having some type of meeting during the summer months, it was decided to move to Zoom meetings for the summer. Some of the directors will be able to participate from their current destinations. For the Zoom meetings, the agreed time was the 2nd Monday of the month at 5:00 pm as to not interfere with the day’s activities. For the next meeting this would be June 13th.

 

Adjournment:

 

Motion to adjourn by Ashley Tackett, seconded by Nat Hart.
