Membership Report

We just finished with Opening Day festivities and I am amazed how active this club is. Thanks to all who helped make the Pride of Queen City and Opening Day a success. We currently now 380 have active members counting new members, Capt. Bill Gray, Capt. Lynn Sipkens, Capt. Steve Barton and Capt. Tracy Redding, who were initiated at the General Meeting on Wednesday, April 8. Welcome aboard! Thanks to recruiting sponsors Capt. Bruce Ramon for Capt. Bill Gray, Capt. Larry Dubia for Capt. Lynn Sipkens, P/C Larry Chmela for Capt. Tracy Redding, and Capt. Tim Connely for Capt. Steve Barton. We have 3 more applicants that are ready for initiation.

Recruiting boating friends is one of the best ways to help your Club attain full membership. As you know, we are shooting for full membership status, with our goal at 400. Don't forget to grab a few Club brochures when you are at the clubhouse and encourage them to join.

Reminder!
The 2008-2009 Membership Recruiting Lottery drawing will be coming up this fall. There is a $1,000.00 cash prize to the lucky sponsor whose name is drawn! So, get a candidate in mind, and become part of the action! The participants in this drawing will be enjoying very good odds to win. Each person you sponsor counts for a drawing ticket.

So...keep recruiting!
and happy spring cruising.
