ThePointYachtClubMissionStatement
This Club exists to provide water related recreational opportunities for its members. We are dedicated to
encouraging the safe and skilled operation of vessels owned by the members. The Club is a not for profit
organization operated for the benefit of the members.
Let me start by recognizing and welcoming Point Yacht Club’s newest members, Richard & Lee
Harding and Mike & Judy Mahaffey. Welcome – it’s wonderful to have you onboard.
And as usual, I have some thank yous to all those members that made the Loo Wow, Sailstice and
A Night with Elvis successes! Aside from boating, the celebrations we enjoy as a club are what
keep me interested and talking about the PtYC. I can’t tell you enough how much I appreciate all of
the time and effort that folks put into each event – THANK YOU.
I’ll leave you with a quick insight into some topics the Board of Governors has their collective eye
on…. Completion of the wheelchair ramp; hanging of the awnings/curtains; dock plans; driving
membership.
I hope to see many of you at the Cardboard Boat races and Fast Women later this month.
Until next time, Fair Winds, see you on the water!
Connie Fuqua, Commodore
