A Time for Socializing

/

Thank you to everyone that came out to the Oktoberfest. It was a lot of fun! The next social is the Oyster Roast this weekend which should also be a ton of fun. There is also a possible Christmas social in December, however we are still in need of a host for that event. Please think about volunteering, it’s a great way to let your creative side show on the club’s dime. Get in touch with Autumn at bariautumn@gmail.com.

The Board of Directors meeting will be November 12th at 6:30pm, as always, members are welcome to join!

Welcome to Falll

Fall has come, which means cooler days and night, and some of the more popular socials at WRYC. Oktoberfest is happening this coming Saturday, October 5. Thanks to all of those that have volunteered to help as well as those that will be in attendance. It will be a great time. The annual Oyster Roast is coming up quick and you can RSVP for that now. I would highly recommend doing so!

Even though the weather is starting to get cooler, there is still plenty of time to get out on the water, or use the club, even if it is just for a nice walk. The club belongs to you, use it!

The Board of Directors meeting is October 8 at 6:30pm. As always, meetings are open to the membership.

Membership Corner

Welcome New Members!

Jack Denious is our newest Junior member. Jack is part of the Farinholt family and grew up coming to the club / attending junior sailing. He is also cousins with the Wilson family (Jane and Charles). Jack resides in Manhattan and visits family in Richmond quite often.

 

At the last board meeting it was suggested to combine the Social and Membership Committees into one larger committee with two co-chairs and a committee of 3-5. This is a work in progress, but having extra hands will ensure efficiency with planning and executing socials for current members while incorporating creative ways to attract new members through events. If you are interested in being part of the committee please email wareriveryc@gmail.com.

Active, engaged members are what keep our club attractive and relevant! Invite a friend to a social or refer them to the website to learn more about our club. Your support is appreciated in spreading the word about WRYC and our community. Should you have questions, ideas, or want to volunteer with membership opportunities please reach out to Josh at joshuajamesnp@gmail.com
