 “Signing Off” from the Vice, SEA you at the Club

   I would like to start out by saying Leshia and I had a wonderful summer working with everybody on our rendezvous we feel we made some great new friends. The frost bite was a rocking good time with the help of our members who did not allow a little rain to stand in their way of a good time and thanks to Lester Mateyak for cooking those wonderful ribs we all enjoyed. The summer went by much to fast for my liking but isn’t that the way it always seems.  Our boats are getting ready to be shrunk raped and winterized so we must think ahead to fall and winter so if anyone wants to have a party let Tony or me know. I would like to thank everyone who helped with rendezvous and tiki parties this summer. The list is long so bare with me Roger & Darlene Mateyak, Denny & Clair Luedtke, Tony & Lisa, Lester & Jane Mateyak, Dennis Hawkins, Terrible Tom Donahue, Bob & Judy Williams,  and Jack & Cindy Lobaido, Jim Bush and son in law Eddie without any of these people the summer fun would not have been possible. Remember October 10th we are having the Misty fund raiser so please come out and help a Mariner in her time of need. The fun starts at 5pm. Once again THANK YOU all for helping and attending all of this summers events and making them the fun they were.

Your Fleet Captain Travis Hotchkiss
  

From the Buoys Belles  …

      The next Buoy's Belles meeting will be held on Thursday October 8 at 7:00pm. We will be nominating/electing officers for next year. Please make every effort to attend as we did not have enough participation at the September meeting to begin the nomination process. We are an organization who supports both Mariner's and the community and hopefully, we can continue to do so with support from the membership. There are no attendance requirements for meetings. Just come, participate, enjoy yourself and help the Club. Hope to see you Thursday!

Chaplain Ed Maluchnik,

     Our deepest prayers and condolences are sent to Jane and Dennis Trombley and their family for the loss of her son and his brother. Please continue to send prayers for Barbara Burns.

     I would like to thank all of you who have sent cards and all of you who have sent prayers. Through the course of the accident, I have found out that I have lung cancer. I am not sure what they are going to do with it just yet. This will be my last term as Chaplain since I will be quite busy with treatments of some kind. I am proud to have been your Chaplain for the last nine years and hope someone steps up to take my place. I do plan on retaining my membership and hope to see all of you at the club. Please continue to send prayers.
