SUBJECTS: In Memory Of: - Catching Perch - Election Dinner 2018

To All WRBC Members,

RE:    IN MEMORY OF:

It was brought to my attention that Boat Club Member Jim Hoops father had past away recently on Nov. 15, 2017.
A Monetary Gift on behalf of the WRBC was sent to the family.

RE:  CATCHING PERCH

For those of you who are interested in Perch-there had been limits being caught at Montrose Harbor, Navy Pier, 87th and the Calumet Harbor / River in the past couple weeks.  So if you want a fresh perch dinner get out there and catch some.

RE:    ELECTION DINNER 2018

Just a reminder that our first meeting of the year 2018 Election Dinner will be at the Whiting American Legion Hall Post 80 across from Walgreen's parking lot on Indianapolis Boulevard on January 30, 2018 at 6:00pm with cocktails being served till 6:30pm. Dinner will start at 7:00pm.  Once everyone has eaten, the election meeting will begin.

Remember do not park in the Walgreen's parking lot, for your vehicle will be towed.

There will be a mailing in January regarding the Election Dinner, etc.

Keep in mind the Boat Club Building is open 24/7 throughout the winter months.

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, I would like to wish everyone Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Happy Holidays,
Mike Hill

Commodore's Notes - RE: LAST MEETING - THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS - ELECTION DINNER - NOTES

MEMBERS:

Our last meeting for the year will be held on Wednesday, November 1, 2017 @ 7:00PM at the boat club building instead of Tuesday, October 31, 2017 because of Halloween running on the same day as our normally scheduled meetings.

As another year is coming to a close, I just want to say thank you to everybody who has helped make this club a great club throughout the year. In addition, thank you for all those who have helped volunteer again in all of our events and activities.

For our new members, I would like to remind them that this club has been in existence for 63 years and still going strong. As with any club, it takes involvement and dedication to make it successful.

I hope everyone has enjoyed this first full year at our new facility and looking forward to many more years of the same.

JUST A COUPLE NOTES BEFORE THE YEAR ENDS:

1. The building will be open through the winter months for everyone to use at their convenience.

2. As most everyone knows, we do not have monthly meetings in November or December, but will again resume for our first meeting on the last Tuesday, January 30, 2018 at the American Legion, Post 80 in Whiting across from the Walgreen's parking lot for our annual Election Dinner. Further information regarding Election Dinner will follow via U.S. Mail.

Also, we will meet at the American Legion, Post 80 for the February and possibly March meetings, depending on the weather.

3. I have asked for an update on our Wi-Fi and flagpoles. I have not heard anything back from the City of Whiting as of yet.

4. Please continue to check our website for events that may be taking place in the next few months such as a Super Bowl Party, possible Poker Night, etc.

Last but not least, our Country is experiencing extreme peril. So I would like to leave you with something that was passed on to me...

For all who remember Red Skeleton. Please click on this commentary classic by him as he explains the meaning of the words in our "Pledge of Allegiance".

Again, Thank You,

Mike Hill
