From the Commodore

January, February and March

2012

Greetings to all PCKC members and Happy New Year! Having been elected Commodore last fall I would like to thank our previous Commodore Chris Rine for all her work with PCKC over the years. For those who I haven’t had the pleasure of meeting, my wife Keri and I moor our boat Andiamo (a 34’ Pacemaker convertible, pictured above) at Port Superior on the bulkhead on dock four. We have been boating in the Apostle Islands since 2001, getting our first boat in 2004.

You’re Commodore,



PCKC Winter Party

Please mark you calendars and plan to attend the winter party this year, hosted by Jim & Gini Beran, from s/v Dasein, Slip 193 Dock 4 PSMA. (Pictured above left) Good eats are planned and it’s always good to see you all and get caught up on winter activities. Hope you can make it! Hot and cold appetizers will be provided by PCKC, please bring your own libations. BYOB

Please note that we need volunteers coordinate the lunch on May 12th this year. At this point we have no one scheduled to host this event and if no one steps forward, it will have to be cancelled. Please contact the commodore at commodore@pckc.org or 612-987-3940 if you’re interested in helping this weekend. THANKS!

 



In addition to our launch lunch, PCKC will be scheduling a this year. Details are still being organized but the date is set for SATURDAY, JUNE 23TH. We’re looking at either a group sail to one of the islands, and/or a gathering that night at a designated anchorage. Be sure to put the date on your calendar – more info will be out at a later date. http://www.summersailstice.com/3/
We’re still considering other events for the summer. As always, if you have suggestions or want to volunteer
for events, please let me know. I can be reached at commodore@pckc.org or 612-987-3940.
