We also will be starting the budgeting process for next year. Please work with Brian as he contacts each of you to go over your current budget and look for ways to improve your particular areas of spending. Vice-Commodore’s Comments Vice Commodore, Ian Blackburn This is an exciting time of year, tonight we will be presented with the slate of candidates that will help manage the club in 2019. We are also in the process of establishing budgets for the 2019 year, so we are setting ourselves up for success, all along we still have great events coming up. GPYC was a great Rendezvous, thank you Ken and Julie. Finally, welcome back Tom, I am glad you are feeling better and are healthy again. Rear-Commodore’s Comments Rear Commodore, Bill Calihan Well here we are in August already. We have had a great summer so far. The clubhouse and grounds are looking as good as ever and we are complemented on this and the hospitality we have shown to all people that visit our great club. All members of this club should feel a since of pride, for it is the membership that volunteers their time to make this the club what it is. Elections are just around the corner and I am looking forward to seeing who will step up to guide this club into the further. Remember a club does not live by dues alone. Over the next nine weekends, seven of them have NCYC events scheduled. Read your Beacon or check the schedule in the roster book, come out and support your club and have a great time as we get closer Treasurer, Brian Fringer $60K in revenue for the month. Up about 8% for the year. Got to consider the upcoming seawall project. Just shy of $300K cash position (including emergency fund), looking very strong. MOTION: Moved by V/C Blackburn and seconded by Darryl Campbell to approve the Financial Report. Motion Carried P/C Pat Carroll ABYA has no intention of going away. They’re looking at by-law changes to expand who can run for the board. Got Commodores Ball tickets for December and raffles tickets. Will be available at NCYC starting in September. At last Monday’s meeting, ABYA had a guest speaker talking about the difficulties maintaining the south channel lights. Also, a member of The Order of the Blue Gavel Club spoke. ABYA tried to join The Yachting Club of America, but was told they cannot join because they don’t have a property assigned to ABYA. Can contact ABYA Commodore for Metro Boat Show tickets for $5. Go to ABYA to island closing. Financial Report ABYA Report
