June 2022 Beacon

updating many of the overnight rooms with new furniture, pictures and bedding.

We know we have missed a few things but, there is just too much to mention. Very many improvements have been made and several projects will be completed soon. All of this is possible because of all of you, our great members. The weather on opening weekend did not disappoint and we culminated all the hard work with our General Membership Meeting, Steer Roast and Flag-Raising Ceremony on Memorial Day weekend. The American Flag that will fly at NCYC for the 2022 season was provided by Bernie Callwaert-Lapko in memory of past member, and veteran Bob Callewaert who we lost in 2001. The flag raising ceremony was dedicated to 1990 First Mates President Vicky Klapec and 1986 Past Commodore Cass Klapec, who we lost in 2020 and 2021 respectfully. Moving comments were delivered by their son Steven and daughter Cathy. We are very proud of everything that has been accomplished leading up to our opening day and the North Channel Yacht Club is well on its way to another great year. We look forward to seeing you on the island.

Your Flag,

Dale Hall
