Special Work Day Called Saturday, May 17, 2008 9:00-about Noon

GRSA Commodore Jim Hudson has called for a crew of volunteers to come to the Club this Saturday morning (May 17) to assist Facilities Chairman, Captain John Swenson put the finishing touches on the Club facilities and grounds to get the place in tip top condition for the Memorial Day Regatta and Social that kicks off our Summer Season of fun and relaxation.

The "to-do" list is not all that long, but everything needs to get done. We plan on installing rubber bumpers on the docks, we need a couple of folks to bring some waders or hip boots as you might need to stand in the water. We need to raise the Flag pole, which was knocked down earlier this year during one of the nasty storms that have washed out much of the Spring sailing season. And there is a lot of grass that needs cut, weeds that need trimmed and a pavilion that needs cleaned.

The first work day of the year was the Spring Workday on Saturday, March 29.  Thanks to all who came out to help.

Some boats in the yard are starting to take on an appearance of abandonment. Please come out and drain the water that is collecting and creating a breeding ground for mosquitoes and clear out the growth under your trailer. Also, make sure there is air in the tires should there be a need to move your boat around the yard.

Thanks again for all of the help!!

John Swenson
Facilities Chairman
