I have said this to many people that SMYC has given to me much more than I ever gave to Club. I have learned so much from our Members and use what I have learned in my business and life in general. To tell you that I appreciated ALL of your support throughout my years as your Commodore would be an understatement. I would like to thank ALL of you for your assistance and guidance. We have a new leadership team coming on board and I wish them the best. It is extremely healthy for an organization to get fresh ideas and goals through their leadership. So, when you run into our Board as of January 1 st, please thank them for stepping up for our Club. Bryan Gahan will do a great job steering the ship. Thank you to Ryan Rybka, Ron Ilk, Jayne Wisniewski, Mary Karwacki, Paige Hans, Tom Billingsley, and John Erickson for your service to our Club. I would be remised to not thank our outgoing Board Members. They have been a great group to work with. Thank you Mike Gengler, Jan Ruggles, Katy Steinhaus, Betsy Reifscheider, and Bob Jepsen. I appreciate your time and your commitment to your Club. Finally, Mary Jo and I want to wish our SMYC family and friends a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year s! Hope to see you down at the Club!

6 DECK THE HALL!!! I want to thank the following members that assisted in decorating the club for Christmas! I was more than surprised to see all of these members show up and eager to help!. A very sincere thank you to Bill Wheatley, Mike Trock, John Nowicki, Kathy Manna, Sandy Webb, Ron Ilk, Bob Ilk, Dennis Anich, George Prudop, Linda Daly and Jim Rothschadl. Please forgive me if I left anyone out. Bob Ilk also was able to hang the remaining burgees that we have received from various yacht clubs. So, what used to take Bill and myself a day and a half to decorate, we were done in six hours! Thank you to all! After our Installation event, we will be taking everything down, so if you need additional hours please feel free to help. Trim A Tree Party was a huge success! Many followers of the Larry Lynne Band arrived bringing appetizers and the dance floor was never empty! A numerous array of terrific ornaments were entered in the contest and I am sure the judging wasn t easy. However, our winners were: Ray Hollnagel 1st place Karen Puetz nd place Karen Kilman - 3 rd place Congrats to all of you! Happy Holidays to all, and, please don t forget to check the Christmas Card Box in the Hall for your cards I noticed it s already over flowing. Mary Jo Haag
