Membership July 2017

Welcome to five new members in the month of June.  Several are on the wait list for slips so if any member finds they will not be using their slip during the 2017 and wishes to sublease the same, please contact Harbormaster, Dennis Robertson.

The next New Member Orientation will be held in the upper shelter house on Sunday July 16th at 1:00 pm.

At their June meeting, your ECSC Board voted to purchase an AED (Automated External Defibrillator).  This AED will be mounted on the east side of the Racing Shed and will be available to all members for use if needed.  This is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias and is able to treat them through defibrillation.  The device will talk a responder  through the necessary steps.  AED’s are safe and simple enough for anyone to operate.  Also the Good Samaritan laws cover well-intentioned use of public AED’s by lay people nationwide.   This will be a welcome addition to our club.

Two great events are coming up soon and all members are welcome to attend.   The July 4th Pig Roast is the afternoon of the 4th at 4:30.  Please plan to attend and bring your favorite covered dish to share.  Then soon thereafter is the Beach Party, the evening of Saturday July 8th.  This will be catered so a head count is needed and the cost is $10@.  Notify Nick Mates if you plan to attend.
