Membership
Membership Updates We have been working to clear our waitlist for Full and Social Memberships, so you will see many fresh faces around the Club this Fall! Please help me to welcome the following new members! Violet Storer & Henryk Switala , Lisa & John Quetti, David & Lee Ann Lester , Cam & Nicole Jenkins, and Jason Brooke were all welcomed in October. I would like to add Sally Ledbetter (who is joining Kimberly Porter’s Membership) and new trial members Lindsey & John DeMeo (who are getting married at our Club) to the list of those new members who need to be welcomed! Community Support Speaking of Community Support, be sure to see the advertisement for the Love of Cats Gala , another organization we support. Jan & Jim Rich are members who created the Vicki Bretthauer organization. The fundraiser is Saturday, January 28 th and will be held at the Club. Check with Jan if you are interested in attending this casino event! We are still collecting for the Food Pantry in the lobby. Keep bringing in non-perishable items and we will make sure they get over to the Food Pantry. It would be great if you could bring a donation to the Food Pantry if you are coming to the Annual Meeting of the Membership on Thursday November 17 th . This year especially, those less fortunate need food due to Hurricane Ian and inflation. Let us help to make this a special Thanksgiving for our neighbors. Toys for Tots this year is going to be great! We will again be passing the boot at the Annual Meeting for Toys for Tots and, of course, you can send a check or drop toys off at the boxes that we will have in our lobby. But wait, there’s more! Dwyn Von Bereghy, Community Relations Chair, and I are thrilled that our new staff members Missy Duffy (Dockmaster), Youssef Qualidi (F&B Manager), and Chef Brad Reich along with some of our Marina Equity members have a special evening planned for us in support of Toys for Tots. On Saturday, November 19 th there will be a Dock Walk where some of our members will open up their boats for tours from 4p to 6p. We will then follow this Dock Tour with a Clambake on the patio in support of Toys for Tots! These employees along with some of our marina equity members came up with this idea and WE LOVE IT! What better way to support our community and meet members? So, 10% of the price of the Clambake will go to support Toys for Tots. Sign up for this fun event! Fla-mingle anyone? Back by popular demand, we will again have our Fla-mingle Table available on Friday evenings at 6:30pm beginning on Friday, November 4 th . With hope, many of you will join in the fun. We hope to have board members host the table frequently so all members can ask questions, or you can just make some new friends. Either sign up online or call the receptionist and say you would like to be seated at the Fla-mingle Table. If we get a lot of folks asking for the table we will set up two tables (one may be at a later time to spread out demand on the kitchen. We are all about service you know!) Calendars the Month and Season Be sure to click on the Nov 2022 monthly and FY2023 calendar links found in the email announcing this issue. Our first Boaters Night and Wine & Dine of the season, the Annual Meeting and other functions, Dock Stroll and Clambake, Thanksgiving, and a Family Fishing Tournament along with a Casual Italian Buffet are all clubhouse events that everyone is welcome to attend! I hope you are looking forward to a fun season!
