One month closer to summer and sailing in Michigan: anticipation, always a good thing! On the topic of anticipation… in this issue the new Committee Assignments will be published! Everyone has been assigned to one of the thirteen standing committees of the Pontiac Yacht Club. It is a long standing tradition and a great opportunity to meet members, get involved and keep the Club viable.

It is a great honor to now be included in a long line of Pontiac Yacht Club Commodores writing the first Commodore’s Corner of the new sailing season! I am proud to follow so many great volunteers, who have given so generously of themselves to the Club. I wish past Commodore Glenn Smith Sr. (1981) was here to read this; surely he would have some improvements! I miss seeing him on the end of the dock.

Wow! Can you believe it. PYC has welcomed 24, count’em 24, new members in 2009.I believe Bob Mathers has set a new record for new members and there is still time to join. What is even better, our new associates have become active at PYC. Already many have volunteered to help at club functions and work parties. If you are a new member, welcome, and if you are an old member and see a new face at the club be sure to stop and say hello.
Not only are we welcoming new families but some of our old families have grown this season. The Flack’s, Warner’s, and Humphrey’s all had babies this year. Fortunately all were born before the Whitecap, allowing new Moms and Dads to sail in the event. Congratulations to you all. As a special treat, Ryan Flacks' daughter Marissa was present to see his family win the Whitecap regatta with 2 first place finishes.

I have just finished entering race results from this past week and suddenly realized that we already completed the summer series of races and are into the fall series. The summer is going fast, as it always does, but what a summer it has been!
We have succeeded in racing two races on Wednesday night, had successful adult and junior sailing programs, a wonderful anniversary party with 150 attendees, can boast of the publication of PYC’s 75 year history book, (copies still available from Joan Green), a more organized and spacious parking area, and a interior face lift for the club house, to name just a few accomplishments.
