We had Tom Schmidt at the helm the month of October. It started with a cruise-in with Cruiser Haven Yacht Club from up in the Delta the same weekend as Ernie's 1963 Tam High School Reunion. Fun was had by all. (So was my lobster cruise trip. Thanks to all that covered for me during and after my trip that weekend.) The Marsha Wedding rental was a big success and the Halloween Party was off the hoooooook! Thank you Greg Yu and Crew! A pumpkin carving held the next day for the kids was another successful Halloween event, and the SRHS Water Polo end of year party afterwards was great. Phew!
|
At the general meeting we will be inducting 4 new members and introducing Paul Kerrigan, building co-chair, as an incoming director. I want to thank Paul for really stepping up and getting involved with not only building projects but taking the initiative on administrative policies as well.
|
This month we have Bill Walsh at the helm. He will start off by cooking a great pork chop meal for the general meeting at $15. We hope to see lots of members at the meeting.

PICYA Report
|
On October 21st I went to the PICYA leadership/management conference at the Coyote Point Yacht Club in San Mateo. Lots of current topics and old ones were covered and various issues were brought up by different yacht clubs. One of the most important issues that came up was bartending. Anyone who is behind the bar needs to take the ABC-RBS course. This is required by law and ABC can fine us if anyone behind the bar is not certified. Some Delta yacht clubs have been checked and given notice. Anyone who is interested in getting certified to bartend, please register to take the exam and notify the board when you receive your certificate. It is a very easy process. Instructions are also available by PDF or Video.

Ask me if you have any questions about this or any other PICYA topics. Thank you, Paul

“for the good of the club”

As 2023 is drawing to a close, we can look back, even with all the challenges we faced, that this has been a pretty good year . . . some great events, some great dinners, some new members, some great weather, some great cruise-ins, and a LOT of repairs and improvements to our building.
Your SRYC auxiliary is looking forward to a wonderful “Italian Night” dinner to be held on Saturday, November 11th. Our Master chef is long time member Stephanie Garaventa Thomson doing her magic in the galley. My mouth is watering just thinking about it !!! It also happens to be Veteran’s Day and all SRYC members who are also veterans eat for free.
Our annual Auxiliary Christmas Party and Gift Exchange is approaching, too (details TBA). What a GREAT WAY to end the year !!! Happy Thanksgiving!
|
|
|
The Auxiliary is open to all members and their significant others. Traditionally the Auxiliary leans towards family related activities. We organize Christmas parties, theme dinners i.e. Italian nights, Cook Your Own Steak nights, Karaoke evenings and many other fun-filled events. The goal is always to provide enjoyment and opportunities for fund raising.
|
|
Dues are only $20/year and are payable to SRYCA.
|
|
Just place your application and dues in the office mail slot.
