Text Box: March 2007 Text Box: Commodore’s Report - Ray Dillon Text Box: The saying goes, March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. However, for me, March signifies that springtime is around the corner and that means sailing season! Thank you to those who attended the cruising club planning meeting, thanks George, you know how to put together a great party. I heard the food was great, our loss that we could not stay for dinner; Text Box: the wine tasting, new members Bill and Joyce sure made an impression with the outstanding veggie, meat and cheese tray; and the general membership meeting, Brad, you sure are a great rear-commodore. Your board has been hard at work, be sure to read the At the last board meeting section to see what is happening. Remember, board meetings are open, feel free to join us at a future board meeting. Text Box: At the last board meeting... Text Box: The GRSC board meeting was held on Tuesday, March 13th. Jim Wade stepped down as Vice Commodore due to work issues. The board will nominate a replacement at the April Text Box: board meeting. Anyone wishing to take Jim’s place, please contact me. The race schedule was discussed and will be finalized for the April 21st lottery meeting. Due to the Text Box: circumstances with the Vice Commodore this year, the board is looking to the membership for ideas on how to enhance/improve the race schedule for 2007. Please e-mail your ideas to Text Box: rjdill61@sbcglobal.net. There are no bad ideas, some just more workable than others.
