Dear CYC Friends,
As we approach the end of the season, I wanted to let you know about our final schedule of events.
Friday, August 19: Bang and Go Back Race! 11 AM Skippers' Meeting at CYC
All CYC Members and Boat Classes are encouraged to participate!
Friday, August 19: Fleet De-Commissioning (Immediately following the Race)
Please stay on to help de-rig, clean, and put away the N-10s, Lasers and 420s for the season. If we all work together, this process should take no longer than 3 hours. If the Bang and Go Back is cancelled due to weather, please arrive at the CYC at 11 AM for fleet de-commissioning
Saturday, August 20: CYC August Awards Party, 5 PM on the grounds of Winter House.....Please join us in thanking Oriel and Piero for their continued generosity in offering their property again as the venue for the party!
Please bring an hors d'oeuvres or cake/cookies for the kids (with cake knife, please!). Beverages will be provided. The CYC Boutique will be open for last-chance purchases of CYC apparel.
Volunteers and golf carts/trucks are needed for set-up (and take-down after the party). Please meet at the CYC at 2 PM if you can help.
Winners of last year's August trophies should be sure to return them to the instructors by Thursday, August 18.
Sunday, August 21: CYC Annual Meeting 9 AM at Town Hall
All members are welcome.
THE 2011 CYC DIRECTORIES HAVE ARRIVED
If you are on Cuttyhunk, please stop by the CYC Boutique to pick up your 2011 Directory. We will also plan to distribute them to those members who attend the August party. While we are attempting to keep postage costs down, any directories which have not been picked up will be mailed to your home address at the end of the season.
PLEASE VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE CYC PHOTO STARTING AUGUST 17th
On Thursday, voting will begin for the CYC members' top choices for the best photos of 2011. Voting will be done online, via a link on the home page. When you vote, you will see that a panel of judges has selected a group of finalist photos, from which members will choose the winners (similar to the American Idol format). Voting will end Saturday mid-afternoon, before the CYC August Party. Thank you for supporting the CYC Photo Contest! Good luck!
Thanks to all for submitting your photos!
PLEASE SUPPORT THE CYC BOUTIQUE ONE LAST TIME ON AUGUST 20th
Boutique Manager Emily Anderson and her team of enthusiastic volunteers will be at the August party with selected inventory, including the ever-popular micro-fleece which is perfect for those cool August nights.
Proceeds from Boutique sales help greatly to defray program costs while keeping class fees affordable for Cuttyhunk families.
Thanks for your support of the CYC Boutique!
THANK YOU!
As you know, the CYC is an all volunteer organization. So many of you have helped to keep our program running smoothly, in big ways and in small ways. I hope to see many of you soon to thank you in person. For those I miss, let me say here - THANK YOU. Ours is a wonderful organization, with an important mission, and it doesn't work without you.
With warm regards,
