*** LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS TO HELP WITH THE ECSC SOCIAL MEDIA. *** Our club has a very active Facebook group (as most already know),  but we also have an Instagram account: @eaglecreeksailingclub Instagram is more about sharing photos than Facebook is. I'd like to find someone who can help make more posts on the club's Instagram account.  This can be as easy as snapping photos (with your phone) of various boats sailing on the lake or people hanging out around the club. Ideally, the club account would make about 2-3 new posts a week.  If you are interested in helping with ECSC's Instagram account, please reach out to publicity@ecsail.org. We also have more T-Shirts and 1/4 zips for sale  (shown below).  If you would like to buy one and have it mailed to you, please contact publicity@ecsail.org. Sizes & colors are limited to what's in stock.  First come, first served!

Hello! It's been fun getting to meet new people while distributing the 1/4 zips to the 100+ members that bought them. I've recruited some family assistance from my mother, Katie Williams, in helping sell the new apparel.  A huge thank you to her for the assistance! As I mentioned in my last article, I have some T-Shirts being made as we speak.  I will likely do the sales a bit differently this time around.  For anyone interested in paying $6-$8 or so in shipping, I'll just take orders online and ship everyone their T-Shirts.   I'm sure we'll have many shirts leftover that we can bring to Wednesday night festivities, Sunday racing, and all the social events.  But I thought a 100% streamlined, online sales process could be easier.   We'll see if that's true! Please see the Letter-to-the-Editor submission from Rich Fox at the bottom of the Harbormaster article.  Everyone is welcome to contribute an article to the Telltales.  If you're interested, please send your article to publicity@ecsail.org.

Members, I received the 139 quarter-zip jackets last week and have been handing them out to everyone that placed reservations on the Facebook group.  We have about 20 extras that I'm selling as first-come, first-served. My next goal, since it's getting warmer and warmer outside, is to order some ECSC t-shirts.  I'm looking into the below design in 5 or so different colors.  The shirt is a very nice, soft, and thin material. I'm thinking the cost for these will be around $13 - $15.   For these I probably won't take reservations.  I'll order a bunch and sell them at the different ECSC events.   That'll be encouragement to attend our events! Hope you're enjoying the new swag! See you on the water! EJ Williams,  Publicity Chair

Members, Last month I recruited a graphic design friend to make some small modifications to our logo to make it look more professional.  You may have noticed it on the top left of the website already.  For anyone that want's to use this updated logo, please click here to download the PNG file. (yes, this PNG has a transparent background). I now have "vector" files, too, so anyone looking to print something large should contact me and I can provide a file that is scalable to any resolution/dimension. While I had her working on our logo, I asked if she could make us a cool design for the back of a jacket. We came up with the below graphic.  I took initial orders for this 1/4 zip jacket on Facbeook and got about 100 requests.  I added 30 that I can sell at social events to anyone interested. I'm  looking forward to seeing more ECSC attire out there!   If these jacket sales go well, I'll likely expand the options to hardshell jackets, shirts, coozies, etc. ECSC quarter zip jacket ECSC quarter zip jacket See you on the water!
