I can't believe it's September already! Where has the summer gone? The Lobster Fest was a huge
success as always and another great time had by all!
Thanks to everyone who participated in our golf tournament this year, it was a beautiful day. No 5 1/2
inches of rain this time. Congratulations to our winners Chad Robertson, Pat Driscoll, Jim Faso and Pete
Campbell. It came down to a tiebreaker with last years winners. Larry Weatherstons team also scored a
-8. Great job guys!!! The other winners were: men's longest was drive Pat Driscoll and the women's
longest drive Joy Swanson. Men's closest to the pin was Rick Johnson and the Women's closest to the
pin Judy Walck. Thanks once again to all of our sponsors. We couldn’t do it without you!
The club will be closed on Labor Day. Make sure you come out on Sundays to watch the Bills games.
How can you beat $2 beers and 35 cent wings with an awesome view as well!
Baseball playoffs will be starting before you know it. We will continue to be open on Saturdays at noon
and update you on any changes. Thanks for great summer everyone! Thanks also for keeping those
reservations coming in.
Hope to see all of you soon! Judy

Where has the summer gone? I know we still have some great fall weather to enjoy some additional outdoor and boating activities but when I start fueling school buses for opening day it is a reminder of the fact that the end of summer is near. I hope everybody has been enjoying the summer of 2013 at LYC, I know I certainly have so far. I think I have used my boat more this year than I have in the past 5 years or so and that's a good thing. Please mark your calendars for the weekend of September 13-15. The annual Red Flannel cruise will take place on the canal wall in the City of Tonawanda near the long homestead. I am sure this will shape up to be a fun weekend and many people will help out however so far I have to thank my wife Karen for coordinating the shirt order, P/C Tisack for coordinating the permit process for the location and Marty and Dave for agreeing to cook us some great meat on Saturday night. The sign up sheet is in the chart room so please come by land or sea at least for a few hours if you can.

Hello Fellow LYC Members!
What a unique summer we have had! Rain and cloudiness made many of our days questionable for boating, but all in all we can’t complain. When you’re around a great bunch of people, in or on the water, it doesn’t get better that that! Great job to V/C Tim Phillips and Pam Phillips for a great Lobster Broil. John and Renee Petrishin did a fantastic job for the Pirate’s Raffle too. Thanks for all the fun! I am pleased to announce that starting January 1, 2014, we will be emailing your monthly invoice. Please be sure that we have your current email address so we can get your monthly statement sent to you promptly. Emailing monthly statements to our membership will ensure that members receive their
statements in a timely fashion and will also provide a continued savings to our club. Payment methods for monthly charges will remain the same. As a reminder, you are always welcome to have a credit card on file so that we can charge your account automatically. I hope to see many of you at our Red Flannel event this year in Tonawanda. Changing the venue to the canal will hopefully allow families to attend and will also be a more accessible location for those coming by boat. Don’t miss the fun! Best wishes to all for a happy Back to School season!
Johnny: Hey, Mom, I got a hundred in school today! Mom: That’s great, honey ! In what subject ? Johnny: A 40 in Reading and a 60 in Spelling.
Please inform Rear Commodore Marty Houck in the event a member or first mate is hospitalized for illness.
He will need to know who it is, the name of the hospital and the room number.
Officer’s phone numbers are always listed within the Griffon Log.
