VIEW FROM THE HELM

June already! Summer is upon us. For me that means getting up extra early to start sailing at sunrise, getting four to five hours of wonderful sailing in, then getting off the lake before it gets hot. Anyone, who wants to join me on such a schedule for the mid-week cruise on June16, will get a free ice-cold lunchtime drink at Wild Horse West, compliments of your Commodore.

This month at the general membership meeting on the 15th, Glen Vortherms of the Maricopa Water District will provide the presentation. The water district manages the east side of the lake including the two launch ramps, boat storage, RV park, and is landlord (or would that be waterlord) to Pleasant Harbor Marina. Bring your questions and come learn about the history and operations of Maricopa Water District.

We would like to proceed with wrapping up the orders for our LPSC t-shirt/tank top program. If you want a shirt but did not get a chance to make an entry on a sign-up sheet, then please contact me by June 13. We hope to order the shirts in time to pass them out at the June general membership meeting.

Stay cool this month and don’t forget a hat and sunscreen.

Tom Dumbauld, Commodore
