Dear AYC Families,
The 2016 summer season is in full swing. We celebrated
our Past Commodores with our Past Commodore’s Reception,
June 12. Congratulations to Patrick and Deirdre McAleer; your
official Commodore Flag is part of history in our main Dinning
Room. We also welcomed new members at a recent cocktail
reception, June 18. We are thrilled to have them as part of the
AYC family! The first deck party of the season took place last Saturday night with
the Corner Boys. Thank you to Roberta, Tom and Jack Juska for a fabulous “Big
Fat Yacht Club Wedding”. Many brides, grooms and bridesmaids danced the night
away on the north deck. Our Youth and Sailing Camp started last Monday. We are
very lucky to have Grace Bluefled at the helm, as our Youth Director. Camp is off
to a wonderful start!
The month of July is full of activities and events for all to enjoy. A couple of
