All of the improvements to theNVYC are amazing. Therestrooms are completed, the
on-demand hot water heater and the
hood over the gas range are installed,the cement handicap sidewalk andparking pad are poured, the outsidesecurity cameras are operating andthe dishwasher-sanitizer is in the gal-ley. The board approved new blindsfor the front windows. Finally, ourburgees are back in place. Thank youto all of the volunteers.
Seven men and five trucks fromNapa Sanitation ran a TV camerathrough 174 of sewer line and re-ported it all clear. They could not in-
spect the last 13 up to the club. Wewill check the pipe when we install aneeded clean out. Looks like the cityworked to tame the dust on RiversideDrive with gravel and grading.
We are looking forward to the Au-gust 13 cruise-out to Benicias Ped-dlers Fair and the following DeltaCruise; 19 boats are signed up. Cap-tain Ken Graham is holding a SafetyWorkshop on Marlin Spike Seaman-ship on August 11 at the club. BeniciaYC will cruise in Labor Day Weekendto defend the perpetual Bocce Balltrophy. Its our job to bring it back toour clubhouse...come on down andsupport the players.
Mark your calendars: The Changeof Watch will be November 20 at theNapa Valley Country Club.
Live Your Dream - Larry
Here we are and the sum-mer is half over. Theweather has been chilly
almost cold, and most are wonder-
ing where is the sun. Events forthe month include the Delta cruiseas well as the Pittsburg YachtClub August 20_22. Come down tothe club to welcome them.
The Labor Day weekend is Sept3-5 and the Benicia Yacht Clubwill be at our docks for most ofthe weekend. They have devel-oped a full schedule outside of theclub except for the annual BocceBall tournament. This will startat noon on Sunday, Sept 5th..
Karen and Charlie Agnew will besupervising the contest. If you areconcerned that we control thematch, please register with Karento compete. The Bar will be openduring and before the event. TheBenicia YC always has a lot ofmembers attend so it will be fun.On Sept 12, the 49ers open their
season at 1:15 PM and we areplanning a party at the club tokick off the season. We want toput those new flat screen TVs togood use and develop that footballcamaraderie as we begin the 2010season. Raiders fans that are look-ing for equal time should volun-teer for the 10:00 AM kickoff slot.This is the time of year where Ipersonally am exiting my footballwithdrawals, and becoming ahappy football camper.
Happy boating, especially thoseon the Delta cruise.
If you have not been to the clublately you need to take a tripdown there and see what has
changed! You might not recognize
the place with an updated galley, agreat range hood and soon a dish-washer. Super bathrooms withhandicap access and now a handi-cap ramp provide better access tothe club. Many of your club mateshave been very busy. Chris Fultz isthe man in charge. Larry Wolfe andI are the laborers. We have had acontractor, Duane Heskett, doingmuch of the heavy work. Thanks toClay Parker for getting the securitysystem up and running.
I want to take the bulk of this col-umn to recognize one of our unsungheroes: Evelyn Silveri. She neverreceives much attention and neverexpects it either. Since before we
joined in 2000, she has been Mem-bership Chairperson and we re-member many a great cruise-outwith Evelyn and Barney!I cant recall one board meeting
when Evelyn has not been in atten-dance to give a report and updatethe Board on membership. Evelynensures that the paper work is com-plete, the check is received, newmembers welcomed and name tagsand burgees delivered (if they havea boat). She is a one woman Wel-come Wagon.Evelyn, thank you very much for
your time and effort. We appreciateyour consistent positive attitude andcommitment to our club.
