Dear OSYC Members and Their Guests, This coming Saturday July 2, 2011 is another big day for our club (although how can we top the wonderful past Children’s Day???). We will have a race as, Micheal, our race committee chairman announces, if conditions permit: skippers meeting at 12 noon and race gun at 1 p.m. The fired up grill will be ready about 6 P.M. for our “club burn”, and then Ken is providing Jimmy Buffet music and Jimmy is bringing the CD player for our entertainment. We, as members, are suppose to bring the meat or vegetables as each family desires to be cooked by our Commodore Ken. He will also provide 2, as not yet announced, side dishes. The rest of us are asked to bring an hors d’ oeuvre, another side dish to share or a dessert that will knock our sandals ( not socks) off. If that is not your wish, you might donate $3 to defray club costs. Aloah or island shirts, tropical hats and parrot-head costumes are most welcome-we might even come up with a prize or two. Also, if anyone has tiki torches, lanterns or other island decorations, please bring them. We plan to have our feast on the point as we might even catch a breath of wind down there. Happy 4th of July to all and to all our ancestors who have fought, died, or worked our land so we might have the freedoms we now enjoy. –Grayson
