It has been a busy month. 5 private parties and several club events. Starting with Labor Day Fun Day. The club supplied the BBQ and fun was had by all. The general membership dinner was tri-tip prepared by Shirley, Kim, Will Little and myself. Thanks for all your help guys. We had 2 cruise-ins with 3 different clubs: Caliente, Tower Park and Point San Pablo. The Auxiliary provided "cook your own steak" for the cruise-in. Another great event. A big thanks to Kim McClure, Will Little, Susanna Gasper & Ed Cass for helping me out last month in general.

Paul B. and Paul K. are working on replacing the club signs out front and on the building.

Doug Taylor went under the knife for a new knee and is doing fine. Yay!

This last Saturday, September 23rd, your SRYC Auxiliary hosted another delicious, wonderful, fun “Cook Your Own Steak” night in coordination with the cruise-in of Tower Park and Caliente YCs. Approximately 35 sailors/mates signed up in advance to practice their skills at grilling with the SRYCA providing the steaks, sides, and appetizers. We were a little concerned about the weather, but it all turned out to be a beautiful evening. Rosie provided entertainment and the conversations were plentiful. Special thanks to ALL Aux members who made this effort a great success, especially: Betsy, Kathy C, Emily, Lou, Barbara, Paul B, Paul K, Berneice, Jerry and Terry. If I left anyone off the list . . . I apologize (I’m getting old).

ERNIE'S IDIOMS
|
|
|
CURFEW: The word "curfew" comes from the French phrase "couvre-feu" which means "cover the fire." It was used to describe the time of blowing out all lamps and candles. It was later adopted into Middle English as "curfew" which later became the modern "curfew". In the early American colonies, homes had no real fireplaces, so a fire was built in the centre of the room. In order to make sure a fire did not get out of control during the night it was required that, by an agreed upon time, all fires would be covered with a clay pot called a "curfew."
