The 2007 Annual General Meeting was held November 29th, at the Winnipeg Winter Club.

Approximately 30 members were present to hear Darrell Stewart present a Docks and Grounds Redevelopment project, which is being explored by the board. Feedback by ZZYC members on this project is important and the topic was discussed at length. Two retiring board members, Tannis Scott and Sharon Gorenstein, were presented with gift baskets for their work at Zig Zag for the last two years. Our caring thoughts are with Joanne. The new slate of officers was presented and approved and can be viewed on our web at Contact Us.

The interesting evening concluded with wine, cheese, fruit, and conversation.


 

The 2007 MSA Awards and Volunteer Appreciation Ceremony was held November 9th, at the Fort Whyte Centre.

Justin Alkier, Vanessa Stewart, Chris Ferguson were honoured as well as our 10 Learn to Sail instructors, our volunteers, and our two MSA boardmembers, Marilyn Ferguson (VP Operations) and Barb Parke (VP Teams).

Did you receive your 2007 Porthole magazine - A Year in Review - in the mail?

This is the Sailing News for Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario and has many interesting articles about the sailing by our sailors. If you didn't get your magazine, call MSA at 925-5647 and they will be happy to send you a copy.

The cover picture of this edition is ZZYC's head instructor, Gord Parke, and RLWYC's head instructor, Royden Brousseau sailing the Olympic Class 49er from Kenora to Clearwater Bay, after the Richardson Regatta finished. It took 4 hours and they got home just before dark.
