Let
me start by thanking a few people for your help and support with this year’s
Installation Dinner: Paul and Winky Scannell, obviously without you two I would not be where I am today. Alice Gibson and Becky Wilson, for all your time and effort in decorating, organizing, and cleaning of the Club. It turned out beautiful!! Lonnie Gibson, Don Wilson, Jim Arnold, and Chuck Carroll, for cleaning, stripping and waxing the floors. Freda Lucido, for your time in preparing the great looking flyers and programs. Belynda Zobb, for your contribution of the flags. Kathie Hammer, for your Invocation, Ed Collins, for emceeing the event. Lawny & Lisa Chapman, for providing music into the early morning. Scotty Wigmore, Dan Gorman, and Chuck English, for your time helping everyone at the bar. Last and not least, Chef Paul and his DVC's HRM Catering team. I could not have asked for a better meal than what was provided. I THANK ALL of you for a wonderful night!! To my Board of Officers and Directors, with your support I look forward to a great year of fun and entertaining parties. Of course it will also take the participation of the members as well. As a reminder, if you look on Sportsmen's web page (www.sportsmenyc.org) you will find a list of upcoming events. Be sure to check this year’s calendar due to the many changes made throughout the year. |
Don
Lucido does a great job of keeping our website up to date. We look forward to
adding as many events as we can and continuing with support of our wonderful
club. That can only happen with your help. I know I'm not alone in saying I
enjoy an evening of good food, music, and socializing while enjoying a
beautiful view of the Delta.
With
January behind us I look forward to your continued support in keeping
SPORTSMEN YC the BEST Yacht Club on the Delta !
P.S.
Let's continue making Sportsmen YC the place everyone wants to be. Encourage
and invite your friends to our club events. It's always nice to meet new
people. GO SPORTSMEN!!

We
had our annual Installation Dinner on Saturday January 14th.
It was an outstanding event due to the hard work of some of our Club
members. An
outstanding dinner was provided by our very own Chef Paul and the Diablo
Valley College Culinary Arts Program.
Once again, Alice Gibson did a terrific job of setting up a wonderful
venue and Lonnie Chapman provided the music and entertainment. Our
second event of the year is the Sportsmen Crab Feed on Saturday January 28th.
This annual event brings members together who work hard cleaning the
crab in preparation for the tasty meal.
Thank you to the committee members for volunteering your time in
support of another successful event.

I
know this is going to be repeated in other newsletter articles, but I have
to say it as well. I certainly enjoyed the Installation Dinner and I think
Commodore Scannell did a great job with the format and its organization. Many
thanks to Alice Gibson, with the help of Becky Wilson and a few others, in
getting the place set up and decorated.
If you did not attend, you missed an excellent meal prepared by
Chef Paul and his top notch crew; the food was beyond description. It
was my pleasure to sit at the head table in the company of so very many
fine people. I am certainly looking forward to working and socializing
with these folks and all members of the Club. Based
on the things that I have observed so far, this is going to be a very
productive year with the
leadership and involvement by the members of the Club. Congratulations
to our new Port Captain, Chuck Carroll, and our new Fleet Captain, Darlene
Dawson. These two experienced members will be invaluable in making this
year a success. Thanks
to everyone for everything you do.
