Dave set up the tent and Penny and Jan provided breakfast refreshments to the captains and crews. The participants consider the Barnum Bay race to be their favorite.

BBYC ANNUAL ICE BREAKER

wOn Saturday, April 27th, 2019 we held our annual Ice Breaker event. 28 brave sailors bucked the weather and gathered  at the Lake Arrowhead Chalet beginning at 4:00 pm for social hour, followed by a meeting and a pot luck dinner.

Dave and Mayo Ewandowski, our capable commodores, welcomed our guests as they arrived. After some great appetizers, and smooth drinks, Dave and Mayo provided us with tasty sandwiches and Dave's famous baked beans. In addition to the appetizers, friends brought lots of colorful salads and decadent desserts. It was quite a feast.

Dave ran the meeting, going over the successful events of last year and reached out for volunteers to head next year's committees.

There will be more details about this meeting coming soon.

A good time was had by all!

WELCOME ABOARD

WINTER SOCIAL - JANUARY 2019

The annual BBYC Winter Social was held on Saturday, January 5, 2019 at the home of Penny and Ron Callan. Eighteen of our members gathered to start the new year off sharing stories and enjoying good food and drinks together. It was nice to get to know some of our new members better. We all started looking forward to another year of sailing and club events.
Thanks to everyone who brought delicious food and drinks to share. We missed some of our sailors, but we will hopefully see you all at the Ice Breaker on April 27.
