Membership – August 2017

A big welcome to three new members in July.   Troy and Jeanne Whitted and their son, Jake, of Brownsburg sailing a 22 Hunter.  Keith Burton, a former member, now living in Carmel and sailing an O’Day 23.  John Wells of West Lafayette sailing a J24.   We have had a total of 17 members  join ECSC since 1/1/17.  We do have a short waiting list for slips so if you are not going to be using your slip for the remainder of the season, contact Dennis Robertson to arrange a possible sublease for the rest the 2017 season.

Our new AED is in place (in it’s own box on the outside of the racing shed, to the left of the bulletin board) and is available to all members 24/7.  We have both adult and pediatric pads available in the box.  There is a short instruction sheet inside the box with the AED.  Once activated, there is a small screen on the AED that shows where to place pads and there are voice commands that walk you through the procedure.  For more information, you can Google and find a great deal of information.

Christy will conduct a third New Member Orientation session which will be held Sunday, September 17 at 1:00 pm in the upper shelter.  All new and prospective members are welcome to attend.

Hope to see all of you at the Lobster Fest on Sat. August 19th.  The evite invitation was sent out on August 3rd.  Please RSVP and pay the $12.00 fee via that invitation.  Any questions, contact Eric and Kathleen Jones or our social chairman, Vicki Greenough.
