Sylvia Ewing, Susan Tonon, Tom Hytry, and Joe Sjostrom. The photos were taken by Joe Sjostrom and Tom Hytry. On Sunday morning we met at the Intrigue s dock and motored out to the finish line where we inflated and deployed the big white marker buoy and then dropped Intrigue s anchor a few hundred yards away. As the racing sailboats crossed the finish line between Intrigue and the marker we logged their boat name, boat number and arrival time, and exchanged greetings and cheers. The committee was grateful for the lunches and drinks provided JPYC. Tip of the Week Want to sit outside and enjoy a nice cozy fire? Check out our fire pit on the north side of the Club. It s the perfect way to keep warm while watching the sunset, roasting some marshmallows, or listening to the crackling wood. Remember to extinguish the fire prior to walking away. Do you have a tip? Send an with your recommendation. Race Committee Who s ready to get on the water, learn something new, raise flags, meet new people, blow horns, watch sailboats glide across Lake Michigan, and enjoy the sunset?
