Membership Happenings
With Board approval at the May Board of Directors meeting , our Young Adult category will take a new direction .
This change , rather than trying to keep members to age 25 , provides young adults through age 35 a transition to Regular Membership in FWYC . The steps for this age driven category grants these members an affordable avenue to become full Regular Members . This category has worked well at the Pensacola Yacht Club for over 25 years and has provided PYC with a steady stream of young people who become Active ( Regular ) Members . This change has come about through over a year and a half of research , contacting yacht clubs and finding a plan that should work at FWYC . The bylaw change to this category is posted on the bulletin board in the glass case . Please take a look at it and let your Board members know if you support this initiative . In addition , please email the membership committee ( membership @ fwyc . org ) is you have any questions about this change . We will be happy to answer questions or entertain any comments .
We are all getting excited about the Family Fun Day and Blessing of the Fleet on Saturday , 20 May . There will be fun for any age , especially children . Please bring your friends , coworkers , neighbors , etc . This is a community event and we hope to showcase our club to people who are not members . If you haven ’ t been contacted about volunteering for this event , please email Shari Seaton , the FCA coordinator at ssseaton @ cox . net or membership @ fwyc . org . We need YOU !
The new Menu has been very well received . Eric is going to tweak some things that members have wanted and did not see in the menu . A revised edition will be out shortly . As we often mention , this initiative came about because members requested it on our survey . Now that we have a more inclusive menu , we all need to support this effort . If we keep eating the same thing on the same days , then we are no better off . Branch out , try some new things on different days or evenings !
With warmer weather here , we are signing up more new members . One reminder about timing : Applications for Seasonal and Reinstatements need to be into the office 2 weeks prior to the next Board Meeting because those
6 require only one reading or voting by the Board . All other categories , Friday before Board meeting will offer sufficient time because they require two Board readings .
