The Latest Fleet Scuttlebutt ...................
I wasn’t sure I’d have much to share this month, but I am happy to report that the club was able to acquire a much needed third chase/rescue boat for our Club’s Jr. Sailing Program. This boat will help us expand our ability to serve more students as well as offer a safer environment for our campers.
Now, I’m just waiting for spring !!!
Fair winds & steady seas,
Jim Garrett - Fleet
New Year, New WRYC
I am very excited for what events 2024 brings to our club. We have so many ideas on the table, to include some game nights, a soup night, and of course our monthly Socials! Be on the lookout for email alerts from WRYC announcing the events. We really want to bring the club to life this year, so if you have any ideas or want to help make this happen, please reach out!
On an unrelated note, if anyone is feeling crafty and wants to assist in decorating an Albacore boat into a daffodil wonderland for the 2024 Daffodil Festival Parade (or wants to participate in the parade or our informational booth), please email WRYC or Autumn Taylor (240) 520-2109
