LSC eNews August 2015

From the editor The Bay turned on an absolute pearler of a day for the visit by our new website developer at the end of July and the Club was at its very best – from the immaculate grounds to the warm welcome at the bar and bistro – congratulations to all concerned for all the hard work ‘behind the scenes’ which makes the visitor experience so pleasant. We truly are blessed with our beautful little corner of the Bay. Lots of activity ramping up, with Spring in the air and the Interclub Bay Cruise (September) and our AGM (October) just around the corner, with a number of events planned for October/November. Deadlines for the September edition are Friday 16th (advertising review and bookings – to Karen) and Friday 23rd (photos, reports, stories and news – to me, please). My work commitments will be pressing tight in the next six weeks, so there may be some variation in the timing and content of the release of the September eNews. Please continue to get in touch with your ideas, stories, news and contributions – email me at

• Sea-lift (boats to 60ft) • Chandlery • Boat storage • Slipway : mono/multi-hulls, houseboats & trimarans • Hardstand facilities, service area and refit sheds • Shipwrights and mechanical repairs Membership Handbook – help needed We would like to produce a Membership Handbook to provide prospective and new Members important information about the benefits of becoming an LSC Member and the provision and use of our Club and boating facilities. I would like to ask any interested Members for their thoughts about and assistance in the creation of this handbook. All help greatly appreciated. Karen Davy May 2015 Edition Update on the LSC website Work is well underway in the background, and the first draft of the new-look site and proposed home page is scheduled to be presented to the Board at the next meeting in September. Among the site’s new features will be an enhanced events calendar and easier access for functions enquiries and bookings. As well, eNews advertisers will also be able to ‘cross-platform’ with the planned new online Member Services Directory. What features and information do you, our Members, believe the new website should include? Do we also, for example, reinstate the ‘Boat Log’ list of vessel names and Member’s first and last names? Please call or email Karen Davy or Matthew Tesch (details on pp.2 and 4 of this edition) by 31st August.
