A huge thank you goes out to Violet Miller for her delicious general meeting dinner last month. She single handedly cooked up ribs, hot links, mac & cheese and collard greens to the delight of all who attended!

We inducted one new member last month and introduced two more who will be inducted at the August general meeting. Our newest member is Derek Glazzard. He is a diver and has his own business cleaning boat bottoms, Derek Glazzard's Dive Service. Ed Cass, whom many of us know from Loch Lomond YC, is a software developer and sailing instructor. Brendan Doyle is an electrician with Capitol Electric Construction in San Francisco.

Greg Yu & Jennifer Ishii, Ed Cass, Derek Glazzard and Sheryl Lunsford joined me, Shirley and our friends on the cruise-out to McNears Beach for the Terrapin Crossroads music festival last month. Ed, Derek & Sheryl were a little late to the party because Halcyon got stuck in the mud coming out of the entrance of Loch Lomand Marina. However, they still managed to have a good time waiting for the tide to come in while we and other boats cruised on by!

He became a General contractor and built many buildings in San Francisco as well as Marin. At some time later, he was invited to join the Olympic Club in SF to represent them in Handball. He became a champion player and given the nickname, of “The Whip”. Later on, he purchased his first Sailboat, he named it Sligo, the county in Ireland Tom came from.
