One very pleasant twist was the June 19th ‘ITALIAN BUFFET’ put on by Chef Kyung and his staff. This ‘Third Tuesday’ event to see how our club would react to an additional week day dinner was well received and will be planned again for June so keep your eyes open for the announcement. This year committees have been adding value to the quality of life at our club with expanded hours for the Deckhands Locker, guest speakers, more entertainment along with our historical events which are seeing increased attendance. June will have a First Friday, Third Tuesday, the Thursday Evening Fine Dining, and plans are under way for a Family Movie Night under the stars! Keep your eyes open for the Relay-For-Life fundraiser coming up June 27th featuring the Waihole Ditch Band. Coming up from the fleets: Sailing has the famous Summer Circuit series, Tennis the Tom Collins Tournament and Fishing has a new tournament format. The Haul-out Fleet has petitioned the board for their annual maintenance program for member and club vessels. It has been pointed out that documentation for this practice goes back in time to at least 1958. The purpose is to provide a venue for members to maintain their vessels and ensure a safe environment to do so. As materials, technology and size has evolved so has the nature of this program. The club has a set of rules and guidelines for members which are called BMPs (Best Management Practices). In addition to the BMPs the club has specific guidelines on noise, hours of operation and sub-contracting work, which are available at the front office. Members working on their boats are responsible for knowing and following these rules. The longer hours of daylight are accompanied by increased activities at our club. While safety should always be on the minds of members and staff, it is during this period that we need to be extra diligent. A reminder to keep a special eye out for children at all times. The Board of Directors plans to hold an informational meeting to update members on items of interest. The date is planned for Friday, July 31st. Keep an eye out for details. While it is not scheduled to require a quorum, the appropriate mailing will take place if necessary. I look forward to seeing you at our events and enjoying our club’s many activities and facilities. Vice Commodore Richard Perkins You know the summer season is upon us now that the Memorial Day weekend has come and gone. The kids will be out of school soon and our Summer Youth programs will begin this month. Registration is open at the office for Sailing, Swimming, and Tennis programs this summer. The first sessions start on June 8 and end the first week of August. In conjunction with the Junior Programs the Snack Bar will start its summer schedule (11:00 AM – 4:00 PM) also on June 8. For those members who missed the Italian Night on Tuesday, May 19 you missed a great buffet. Due to the success of this buffet, Ken is working with our caterers to plan additional ethnic food buffets on the third Tuesday of the month. The next buffet is being planned for June 16 so look for an e-mail announcement soon. The Wagyu Beef Tasting dinner with wine pairing is scheduled for June 6. For those who are wondering "What is Wagyu Beef?": Wagyu is a Japanese beef cattle breed derived from native Asian cattle. The name ‘WAGYU’ refers to all Japanese beef cattle, where ‘Wa’ means Japanese and ‘gyu’ means cow. Wagyu were originally draft animals used in Japanese agriculture, and were selected for their physical endurance. This selection favored animals with more intra-muscular fat cells, or ‘marbling’, which provided a readily available source of energy. Wagyu is a naturally horned breed and the cattle are either black or red in color. It is tender, extremely juicy, has rich textures with plenty of flavor, and pleasant lasting taste on the palate. Wagyu beef also contains more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) – Omega 6 per gram than any other foodstuff – 30 per cent more than other beef breeds. CLA is a fatty acid with potent anti-carcinogenic properties, as well as being an anti-inflammatory agent. Wagyu Beef has been referred to as the world best tasting tender beef. Reservations are required for this fine dining event. The Finance and Planning Committee has recommended Sea Engineering to repair E-Pier and the BOD has approved their recommendation to proceed as soon as possible. Sea Engineering has started the permit process so more details about this project will be announced once the permits have been approved. House and Grounds has obtained one proposal to repair / replace the north BBQ and is waiting on another proposal before submitting their recommendation to F&P. The First Friday Music will continue this month with Brant Swigart playing on June 5 at 6:30 PM. Enjoy your summer at the club….. Staff Commodore Chico at the Helm of the club’s Cal 20 aka Chico’s Revenge. Rear Commodore Tom Wood Aloha all. May has been an absolutely great month for fleet activities afloat and ashore. Bulkhead races are going extremely well, participation in the various classboat fleets is excellent, and our annual Summer Circuit for the Inshore Racing Fleet is about to kick off here in June. The May 21 Bulkhead Race was also a fundraiser for HYSA, and I wanted to say a special thanks to the volunteers who made that happen as well as Bill Riddle for pulling it all together. The Lipton Cup Challenge was held in early May and despite a great effort, we did not bring the Lipton Cup back to KYC this year. The racing skippers are already strategizing how to tackle this effort next year and improve our performance. Action abounds on the sailing side of the house. Great job by the Regatta Chair and all the sailing Fleet Captains! The Fishing Fleet held a pot luck and awards ceremony on May 30 with another great round of participation – and yours truly shared his own “fish story” – complete with pictures – from the Memorial Day weekend Molokai sail with the Cruising Fleet. A round dozen boats – both power and sail, made the crossing to Molokai and back and we all enjoyed much sportsmanship and good fellowship along the way. Fishing and racing prizes were awarded to the winners in each category. Speaking of the Cruising Fleet, outgoing Fleet Captain Frederic Berg has been relieved by incoming Captain Rick Villalobos. Thanks to Frederic for all his efforts and welcome to Rick as he takes the helm. The Tennis Fleet held their Tom Collins Tournament in May with around thirty players participating and of course held a great pot-luck and awards ceremony afterwards. A great time was had by all. Congratulations to the tourney winners. After several weeks of low turnout on Sunday Continued on page 5 Managers Report Ken Rakta Port Captain Bob Hurd The IRF Summer Circuit begins June 7. There will be visiting trailered and moored boats for the event through June. I expect there will be a shortage of free space for fishing and visiting yachts during the event, so check with me about mooring spaces. There is a space along the north (inside) area of “G” pier near the bulkhead that has been marked with a sign on a piling and yellow paint on the pier. It is not an area for you to moor your boat, ever. I know that wet mooring spots can be very scarce at times, but using this space is not going to earn you any points with the small sailboat crowd, and maybe you will receive a few dings on your boat's shiny, well polished topsides as the dinghy sailors try to recover the boats on that floating pier. Mooring violation notices are still going out to slip holders whose dock boxes are deficient, and mooring lines and electrical connections are not to Club standards. The Marina Regulations have specific requirements for the lines and methods of mooring your boat to our piers. Remember, the Mooring Agreement you signed requires the slip assignee to report any deficiency in the slip, mooring rings or eyebolts provided by the Club. We also require the use of Club approved plugs and adapters, weatherproofed electrical connections, at each pier outlet. If you have questions, you can obtain a copy of the Regulations at the office. I have a list of parts available locally or through the internet to help you bring your mooring and electrical lines into compliance. The Club views these requirements as a safety issue. The Club requires that every boat trailered to and launched at the Club have a Club registration sticker. Boats in wet mooring also need to have stickers. These stickers on the boats and trailers show that a Club member owns the boat, and that it is insured. There are exceptions for sanctioned racing events for participants from other Clubs. Check you boat stickers. The older ones fade from the sunlight, and those that cannot be read are treated the same as not having one at all. They are free at the office. Please check yours before you receive a mooring violation. Memorial Day is on May 25 this year, and it is a State recognized 3 day weekend. It is one of the three holidays annually (so far) that have an all weekend prohibition on possession of any alcohol at the Sand Bar. The three days usually include the Monday after, but could be the Friday before the actual holiday, depending on when the State celebrates the event. The state will be checking those boats within the “safety zone” established within buoys around the Sand Bar. Beware! The other holidays are Independence Day and Labor Day. They too have the same restrictions. Stay safe, have fun, and I’ll see you on the water. Deckhands Ann Bachmann I would like to start out by saying a special THANK YOU to Betty Birdsong McDowell for the article about the Deckhands and their history. The Deckhands are an anchor/support and part of the backbone of the club. In the Locker: There are great sale items to get ready for summer. Women's sundresses, long and short, are on sale for $6.00 off the regular price. A limited number of other women's clothing is also on sale.The locker committee has very busy purchasing hats, Reyn Aloha Shirts, Tervis glasses and much more. Please stop by and check it out. 4 Aloha Members: Reminder of the Pool rules and Etiquettes. A. Piers, Pool and Bulkhead: Kaneohe Yacht Club has adopted the following to promote, to the greatest extent possible, consistent with our facilities and resources the usage of the swimming pool and adjacent wading pool at KYC. ANYONE USING EITHER THE SWIMMING POOL OR WADING POOL DOES SO AT THEIR OWN RISK AND IS FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS/HER OWN SAFETY. PARENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CHILDREN'S SAFETY. B. Use of the Swimming Pool Use of the pool may be restricted from time to time in accordance with signs posted by the House and Grounds Committee. Pool Rules are as follows: a) No child under the age of 5 may use the swimming pool unless an adult, who is specifically responsible for the child, is physically in the pool with the child and supervising the child's activities. b) Children between the ages of 5 through 10 years of age may use the swimming pool only if they are, at all times, under the direct supervision of an adult who has specifically agreed to be responsible for their safety. The mere fact that other adults are in the vicinity of the swimming pool does not satisfy this requirement. c) No person may use the swimming pool unless he/she is capable of swimming two lengths of the swimming pool unassisted and without the use of flotation devices. Club staff may at any time ask any person using the pool to demonstrate this proficiency. 1. Rules for Pool Use 2. Hours of Operation a) All swimmers must shower before entering either pool. b) Any person using either pool must wear a bathing suit. Children in diapers are not permitted in either pool. c) Running, "horseplay," ball playing or any other similar activity which is unsafe or detracts from the enjoyment of others using either pool is not permitted in or around the pool area. d) Glass containers are not permitted in the pool area. e) Life vests, diving gear, large floats, rafts, sails, "noodles," or other large objects are not permitted in either pool. Any type of flotation device must be small enough so as to not interfere with the enjoyment and use of the pool by other swimmers. f) No person with an open wound, bandages or rashes is permitted in either pool. g) Any accident or injury in or around the pools must be reported to the KYC office personnel immediately. h) Any person using either pool must comply with all directions received from KYC personnel related to the use of the pools. Either pool may be used by persons 10 years of age or older during the hours of 6:00am to 9:00pm every day of the week. Persons 9 years of age and younger may use the pools only during hours that either a lifeguard is on duty or the Kaneohe Yacht Club facilities are open and staffed. Also: Parents, please supervise your young child at all time. Young children were found, unsupervised, in the front yard, climbing tree, or on the bulkhead or the dock on the daily basis. In the past month, we have to call a plumber three times to unstuck our toilet because someone stuffed wads of paper towels in. C. Children: Children under the age of 10 must be under the direct supervision of a competent adult at all times while on Club premises. Children under the age of 10 are not allowed in the Longhouse and the lawn area on the bay side of the Longhouse after 6:30pm on Thursday evenings when the bar is open and dinner is being served. Rear Commodore Tom Wood Junior Sailing Continued from page 3 evenings, we have reverted to our previous hours at the Snack Bar. Unfortunately, there was simply not enough participation to continue that effort. Commodore Pochereva and Staff Commodore Cantu had the Club Cal 20 out recently for an operational check. She’s seaworthy, although could still use some TLC. We will continue our effort to refresh that boat and get more use out of her. Again, please let me or one of the other Commodores know if you are interested in helping out in this worthwhile endeavor. June 1 marks the traditional beginning of the summer storm season. Director Ralph Goto is reviewing safety and storm plans with the Foul Weather Friends, and as noted previously, the Port Captain and Mooring Committee are inspecting berths for safety as well as other compliance issues. For all wet slip tenants, please visit your boat and check your mooring lines as well as the tie-down eyes on the piers. If there are issues with any of your tie-down points, please let the office know so those issues can be corrected as soon as possible. Make sure your lines are correct in terms of size, that they have the proper thimbles, and that you are using proper lines that stretch to minimize shock to both boat and dock fittings. The cleat you save may be your own! Dry slip tenants should also take the time to check their boats, trailers and slip area. Loose items, poorly attached canvas, etc. can create hazards and additional damage during storms. Take the time to clean up before these become a problem. It is essential that everyone who moors or stores their boat at KYC makes sure that their contact information is up to date at all times with the office. Multiple contact numbers are encouraged so that when there is an impending storm or other potential emergency, we can reach you or your representative promptly. We all strive to take care of each other, but ultimately Skippers, your boat is your responsibility. Now is also an excellent time to double check to make sure your insurance coverage is up to date and provides the proper coverage. While you are at it, please provide a recent copy of your policy information to the office. As always, I greatly appreciate the efforts of all those volunteers who keep the Club going strong. Stay safe, watch out for each other, and I hope to see you all at the Club or on the water.

The Kaneohe Yacht Club is a family oriented club, and offers many amenities and programs for our keiki, including the swimming pool, swim lessons, junior sailing programs, and special events (Easter egg hunt, Halloween party, etc) . These are popular activities provided by the club for members and their children, however, we would like to remind the membership of some of the rules involving children at KYC: • Children under the age of 10 must be under the direct supervision of a competent adult at all times while on KYC premises. • Children must be supervised by a competent adult at all times while in the swimming pool. The KYC lifeguard is not a babysitter. • No child under the age of 5 may use the swimming pool unless an adult, who is specifically responsible for the child, is physically in the pool with the child and supervising the child’s activities. • No swimming in the marina, especially at the bulkhead, near the boat ramp or the hoists. • No climbing on the trees adjacent to the entry to the club office. • Children under the age of 10 are not allowed in the longhouse and the lawn area on the bay side of the longhouse after 6:30 pm on Thursday evenings when the bar is open and dinner is being served. • Children are not allowed in the bar AT ANY TIME. Enjoy the summer at KYC, please do it SAFELY… 27.0# Mahimahi Logan Lemquist, son of Craig and Elizabeth Lemquist, caught this 27.0# mahimahi on a spinner rod and reel rig Saturday May 25.

Non-Iolani students are welcome. So far enrollment is about six students in each class with enrollment limited to ten. This is an opportunity for children in members’ families to study for a Technician license along with kids in their own age group. Enrollment instructions are on the Iolani school web site at: http://www.iolani.org/summer-school FEDERAL AND HAWAII STATE LIFE JACKET RULES: Summertime is upon us and that means more family boating! We all want every person who goes out on a boat to return safely on a boat. Since December 2002, the U.S. Coast Guard has required that all children under 13 years of age wear Coast Guard approved life jackets while aboard recreational vessels underway, except when the children are below decks or in an enclosed cabin. The Rule was established to address the problem of childhood drownings while boating, most of which could have been prevented if the child had been wearing a properly fitted PFD (personal flotation device/life jacket). The Federal rule affects only those States that have not established requirements, by statute or rule, for children to wear life jackets. Hawaii statute follows Federal, i.e., children age 12 and under on boats of any length must wear life jackets that are properly fitted and in good condition unless the child is below deck or in an enclosed cabin. Penalties for a boat operator who fails to have all children under the age of 13 wear a life jacket are similar to those for failing to have life jackets on board and can be pretty costly. This friendly safety reminder is brought to you because we all care about our keiki! “Amateur Radio - Session. 1 Gr. 7-12 ***NEW*** Session 1 - 2 hours, no credit, final exam for FCC license students will explore the world of radio and its use in science.
