Updated list of tasks 07 May Work Party
Good day everyone,
Below is a list of tasks for tomorrow's Work Party. If you haven't been able to attend a WP as of yet or are unable to complete your two WP's please contact our Volunteer Co-ordinator Dwight Koshman who can help arrange club tasks that can be accomplished at other times.
There are a number of projects that remain to be completed at the club. We require members that are available to take the lead or assist with any of the below tasks and run with it until completed.
1) The broken mast rack on the hill has to be replaced in the existing holes. We can’t leave mast on the ground on wood blocks.
Also all masts must be installed this year as the storage area s and racks need to be checked and upgraded. Usually the last date for mast installed is June 30. This will make it easier the remove the tree over the shed and mast rack
2) Extra fingers are prepared for the visitors dock or to build a dinghy area from the visitors blue dock. The finger presently tied to the blue dock has to be removed to replace the barrels.
3) We need 8 dock anchors frame built for concrete so we can carry out the program to check anchors. We have 5 anchors ready for the check and exchange schedule.
4) Check for barrels at the docks.
5) Paint touch up and second coat for the back deck. Replace the glass tops and set up the deck.
6) Finish repairs to the back entrance door area.
7) make ready the race markers and install in water
8) Move the sailings dock to the beach area and install the ramp.
9) The weed blankets need to be installed. The team has been doing this for 10 years and need assistance from new younger members.
10) The hill side of boat winter stronger needs the mall trees removed. This was started in the fall but not complete
11) 2 water tanks have to be installed under the deck and piped in to the main plumbing supply.
The bar area and bathrooms need a major cleaning.
12) The break water will need to be floated and moved to the front of b-dock., drilled and filled and reinstalled. Presently the chains holding the breakwater in place have been moved by the ice or are broken. I will need to check the alignment and report on needed repairs. Brad has agreed to check and remove the plug this weekend and start the process on Saturday.
13) The dock steward’s office should be cleaned and set up for its original purpose. The main office desk should also be used for the office supervisor only. I propose a half door with a shelf for business between members and the supervisor. The meet and greet area is not the main office. We have lots of space upstairs.
14) Finish tool set up in garage.
15)
16) Finish the dingy rack repairs and store the dinghies.
17) Finish mast storage rack and replace the masts.
18) Build concrete anchors 32 by 32 by 6 or 8.
19) Reposition the water break by checking the chains and adjust the chains as needed (north .south in line with tires to absorb and reduce hitting).
20) Build wind sock for the concrete pad on the spit and drill holes in the concrete at the spit sign for the base of the wind sock.
21) Finish cleaning up the small trees on the bank.
22) Grind corner of front door and tap the screw for the screw fitting.
23) Place d dock finger in position, replace barrels if missing.
24) paint the blue dock on the visitors dock (Yes Blue)
25) Paint deck. Replace the glass on the outside tables

Club Series Wednesday night racing - 1830 start
A reminder to all that sail racing has begun with the Sail and RC/Race Committee running a Tune Up race on May 4.
We hope to expand our Wednesday fleet this season and encourage any new members and/or existing members who don’t currently race to join us. If you’d like, we can help to arrange crewing opportunities with experienced racers to help you get your feet wet so to speak.
Alternatively, join us on the committee boat for one or two and get a front row seat. You will soon see that it’s not nearly as rough and tumble as you might imagine.
We realize that Wednesday nights might be difficult due to work schedules or travel distances so we will be happy to run a couple of Saturday or Sunday races if we get the demand.
We hope to see you out there.
Scott Brown
Race and Regatta Chair
