Susanna Tellschow and Stephen Wagner write to say that they are going to grill at the Club tonight (Friday, Aug 31) and then do some moonlight sailing. They are hoping some others of you would like to join them.

Also, the forecast is for a beautiful day in the mid-80's for Labor Day. Come and join the group at the Lansing Sailing Club. Picnic is at noon. Bring a dish to pass. LSC will provide brats/chicken/hot dogs, soft drinks, paper and plastic. Bring your family. Invite some friends. We'll have a great time.

 

Tasks That Need Attention at LSC

Fulfill a Duty Obligation

Here are some tasks that need attention at the Lansing Sailing Club.

Completing a task fulfills a Deck Duty obligation. In addition to Docks In, Docks Out and serving on a Race Committee, each member has one Deck Duty obligation every year (such as helping organize a Holiday Picnic). Members who have not met their Deck Duty obligation can do so by selecting something from this list.

After completing a task, leave a note for Rear Commodore Jim Fletcher or Commodore Pat Dolan to receive credit. If funds are expended to complete the task, leave a receipt with your name on it in the Treasurer's box for reimbursement.

Questions? Contact Jim Fletcher or Pat Dolan.

Reinforce Spar/Sail Supports in Small Sail Shed. Reinforce where possible, otherwise replace the spar/sail supports in the Small Sailshed that are loose so that sails and spars have solid resting places.

Add Electrical Outlet In Kitchen. Add another electrical outlet in the Kitchen area of the Clubhouse near the one used by the refrigerator. When installed, add a six outlet plug-in like the one in the existing outlet, then plug the refrigerator, water cooler, coffee maker and microwave into the new outlets - removing the extension cord currently in use.

Remove Weeds from 20' of South Berm. Remove the weeds from 20' of the South Berm (both sides) in preparation for wood chips to be put down. Be careful not to remove evergreens, bushes or ground cover (Bishop's Weed?) planted there. This is a long berm, so there are multiple 20' sections that need attention.

Recent Tasks Completed - Thanks

Repair Siding on Sail Shed - Thanks Dennis Dudley

Repair Accessory Outlet on Committee Boat - Thanks Doug Carlson
