COMMODORE'S MESSAGE

 

Greetings and welcome to the 72nd year of the North Lake Yacht Club! 

While serving as your Commodore, I look forward to the many sailing and social events that are planned for the upcoming year, and connecting again with club members, neighbors and friends around the lake. 

The Flinks are not a sailing or fishing family, but we have enjoyed being members on Reddelien Road on the big lake since 2011.  We've enjoyed many hours watching the regattas, boating and floating around the lake, and volunteering with other members at the fun club events. While serving on the Board, I have learned a lot about the club history, and the dedicated members—both past and present, who have helped to provide us with our wonderful clubhouse and grounds.  North Lake members, we are truly fortunate.

I would like to thank all of our volunteers—again both past and present, for your generous donation of food, money, time and talents.  There are a variety of ways for everyone to participate, and it is most appreciated. Our events depend on you, and I guarantee you will have fun and make friends while helping!

I welcome any questions or suggestions you may have for the Board to consider, and if you take any photos that you would like to share, please send both to northlakeyc@gmail.com.  I am also happy to speak with you.  I will be emailing monthly newsletters and any other important announcements that pertain to North Lake or its members.  Should your email address change please be sure to let us know.

If you are new to the lake, make sure to take advantage of the many events and socials that we have scheduled this year. And if you are attending for the first time, please find me or one of our other Board members.  We will take the time to introduce you to some very fine friends and neighbors!

Again, it is my pleasure to serve as your Commodore, and I look forward to a fun and safe year on North Lake!

North Lake Sailing School

Know anyone interested in learning how to sail? North Lake Sailing School teaches sailing to kids ages 5 – 16 as well as Adults. Students do not need any previous experience and can start for the first time at any age within that range. In fact, they do not need to live on the lake either! Grandchildren, cousins, friends are all welcome to register.

Sailing school is a great way for the kids to enjoy the daily pleasures of lake living. We offer summer long classes as well as several one-week camps for those kids that want to try it out or are involved in a number of other summer activities.

Sailing school is scheduled to begin the second week of June and online registration opens after the first of the year. Click on the link below to find out more about our class offerings:  www.nlss.us
