    Welcome to new members, Ray and Katie DeGrella and their daughter Olivia.  They are from Carmel and will be sailing a Catalina 22.
    Our Harbormaster is still subleasing slips with member #382 being the happy recipient of the most recent sublease.
    Just a reminder that our AED unit is available 24/7.  It is mounted in a clearly marked box on the east wall of the racing shed.  We have two sets of electrodes, adult and pediatric.  The adult pads are attached to the unit, the pediatric pads are in the box.  The unit is very self explanatory.  You turn it on and it talks you through the steps.  There is also a small screen that shows what needs to be done.
    Our next new member orientation session will be Saturday, August 3 at 11:00 am in the upper shelter.

    Our support team this year is:

    Ralph Meriman

    Dan Nicholas

    Barbara Nicholas

    Tony Hubbard

    Wayne Myers

    And I don’t want to forget our Commodore and the Laser course Race Chairman for the second year Geoff Endris.

    Thank You….

    Last month the Jr. Team ran the Jr. summer camp at ECSC with over 40 young sailors learning the ropes. Thanks go out to Christina Williams our camp director this year. Dennis Jr. Robertson assistant director and to the ECSC Jr. Team members for their support and skills in having a very safe two weeks. And many thanks to Dennis and Jenipher Robertson for all of their help.
