The Meaning of the Veterans Remembered Flag

The Flag depicts the founding of our nation by the thirteen stars that emanate from the hoist to the large red star that represents our Nation and the five branches of our country’s military that defend her.

The white star indicates the Veteran’s dedication to service.

The blue star honors all who serve in the military in the past, present, and future.

The gold star memorializes those who fell defending our Nation.

The green field represents the hallowed ground where all rest eternally.

Ahoy members,

There will be a 16 hour safe boating class for all members and non members of TIYC at the clubhouse on two consecutive Saturdays, February 3 (Starting at 9:00 AM) and February 10.  Cost is $65 and includes materials ($45 for Power Squadron members)

Please see attached for details and to register.

https://www.usps.org/index.php/sss-home   and select the 3-Feb course.

This class is called the ABCs of safe boating and covers basic boating skills and rules.

Starting 2018 (now), those under 19 years old are required to obtain a California Boating Education card.

This class meets the requirements to obtain this card.

You may think, “I am over 19; I don’t need a card.”  But if you plan to allow someone under 19 to operate your boat while you supervise, you too, will need a card.  So even if you are over 18, you should sign up.

It is very informative and helpful, even as a review.

So go to the website on the attached flyer and sign up.

Any questions, you may phone Rich or Mary Holden at 925 376 7497.

Dear Treasure Island Yacht Club member,

Following a tradition, I am organizing the first cruise of 2018 around Treasure Island.

Click here to downlaod the TIYC-NewYears Around TI 2018 PDF file.

We will meet at the Club around 1030 on New Year’s Day 2018, welcome the New Year, meet old and
new friends and club members, sip coffee and eat bagels, and will get ready at the club house around

1130 to pick up crew and passengers. Push off from the dock is scheduled around noon. We should be back between 1330 and 1400 (2 pm) for a delicious lunch of clam chowder and sandwiches.

I am hoping for a significant turnout of crews and passengers. Please refer to the attached documents,

the cruise-out flyer and sign-up sheet. If you are interested in sailing, please return the sign-up sheet to albert@pedrazza.com so that I can plan accordingly.

Again, I am encouraging all members, boat owners or passengers, to enjoy the waters on New Year’s Day.

You may even bring a Bloody Mary or Mimosa! There is nothing better than a fresh sea breeze after a night of
celebration!

Cheers,

Albert Pedrazza

The Freedom Sailboat Owners Assn is going to visit us this weekend.  They are arriving on the evening of Friday the 13^th; having dinner with us on Saturday the 14^th; and sailing out, on Sunday the 15^th.  It looks like they are bringing 6 boats and about 12 people.

Peter and I are hosting the event and would like to invite all of you to come join us in welcoming this great group.  We can also use a little help with set up on Saturday; some food prep (John Harrison has already volunteered to help with the grill); welcoming committee; plate sales; bar; and clean-up.

Even though it is a “Cruise In” this is also a “Club Event” and the more the merrier.  We cannot promise a roasting pig, or the Blue Angels, but we can promise lots of fun and comradery.

The Menu is the famous Pirate Burgers (Beef and Turkey); Peter’s great corn on the cob; salad; and some desert I will conjure up.  The price is $15,00 per person

Schedule:

Friday the 13^th –  4:00PM Club open
5:00PM Bar Open
Close on/ or before 9:00PM

Saturday the 14^th  – 12:00PM Club open
3:00PM Set up
4:00PM Appetizers and socializing
5:30PM  Dinner
Close and Clean-up, on or before 9:00PM

Please contact me, or Peter, ASAP if you can join us.  We will do the shopping on Friday afternoon.  I do not have IT skills to set up the fancy RSVP on the flyer deal, so it will have to be e-mail or phone. You can reach me at this e-mail (until Thursday afternoon); or at 510-932-3275.  You can reach Peter at petevanp@gmail.com , or 510-932-3274.
