Letter from the Commodore

Dear Point Lookout Yacht Club Members,

 

Spring 2021 is here and I am pleased to have the opportunity to serve as the new Commodore for the Point Lookout Yacht Club.  I cannot express how humbled and how it’s such a great honor to be the new Commodore!   Please also give a very big welcome to our new Vice Commodore Paul SanPaolo and two beautiful Co-Social Commodores Sasha Todaro and Elyn Coyle. Also want thank Jan Heinlein, John Bono and Bobby Todaro for the exceptional work they have done and truly appreciate their continued support.

 

I also want to give very special thanks and appreciation to Past Commodores and Exec Members that I had the privilege to work with.  MaryAnn McCruden, Ellen Kramer, Peggy Hoffman and Rob Feihel.  

 

As Commodore we will continue the legacy of  Peter J. Gerlett as he so eloquently stated that “We, of the Point Lookout Yacht Club, share a common love of the sea, the art of sailing and the joys of comradeship that bond us in mutual respect and purpose.

We are pledged to promote the skills of seamanship, respect for our fellow sailors, respect for our sea and all its creatures, love of our country and its values, and the rights of all to share in its natural bounty and beauty.”

We have survived and prevailed during the most challenging times, we made the best of 2020 and now are forward bound to another wonderful 2021 season.  Although we remain diligent in safety first with social distancing, with ever changing limitations & restrictions on social gatherings.  We will tack and trim as we go to continue to make every moment as Incredible as the last.  PLYC has remained positive and resilient together.  

 

Always know that as your Commodore, I pledge to fully support every PLYC member and the community.  I am open to listen, help and support any ideas, suggestions and conversation that can make things better no matter how big or small.  Everyone is welcome to call, text, email or come aboard my Dulcinea. 

 

We look forward to seeing all of you soon within the coming weeks, whether it be in person, virtual or on the water. Keep an eye out on the PLYC membership form and club’s calendar for the new upcoming events for 2021.

 

Although we may be faced with challenges along the way, we will strive to do our very best to make this another fun and successful year.

 

I wish everyone a rewarding and memorable summer sailing season!

 

Sincerely 

 

Katerina Xenos, Commodore

Point Lookout Yacht Club

 

 

 

 

It’s Unanimous!
