From theBoardroom

We hope you are enjoying our feature, "From the Boardroom." This monthly feature will help members stay informed about important actions, policy developments, and special projects that were addressed at the most recent Board of Directors meeting. As Commodore Fish has stated to Club members, his goals for the year include increasing transparency and making sure members understand the many social activities that are taking place at the Club, as well as, what is happening with Club finances. We hope “From the Boardroom” will spark member interest, lead to suggestions for improvements at the Club, and provide information that members find useful.
