A few of us have take the plunge into networking CLSA on Facebook and Twitter. Karen Hewitt has volunteered to be one of our Facebook admins. Thanks Karen! I hope we can build our network using this latest internet technology.

I would like to thank Eric Bussell for accepting the Membership Chair position for the 2011 sailing season.

Eric has some great ideas and resources to help us promote our club. He's already busy putting together a marketing and publicity plan targeting our Open House in May. I'm confident we'll see some great results from his work.

Welcome aboard, Eric!

This year, in addition to the traditional reasons to attend the
banquet, we would like you to come in order to help us determine what
the goals of the club should be. We have a very brief survey for you
to fill out and then we’ll have a chance to talk about what we do
well, what we could improve, what people wish the club were doing but
is not. We’ll keep it short and simple, never fear, the banquet is,
after all, mostly about visiting with friends and enjoying good food.
 

Make plans to tour over 20 tall ships from Europe, Canada and the US. August 24-29. Tickets start at $15, 9 bucks for kids; 60-90 minute sails start at $44.
