It’s That Time of Year!

Room reservation forms for the 2012 summer season should be mailed to the Club’s PO Box on March 1. Remember, only members occupying rooms can send their reservations at this time. Reservation forms postmarked prior to March 1 will not be considered. If possible, give options for different weeks and different rooms to make your chance of getting a room higher. The House Committee will meet to assign rooms once all reservations have been received. Rooms are assigned on a first come – first served basis.

You can view the room layout diagram and pricing information in the Member Section under House Information.

Annual Meeting ~ 2012

The annual meeting of the Hanover Seaside Club was held on Saturday, February 11, 2012. The meeting was memorable for several reasons. First, attendance. I can’t guarantee that this was the largest turnout for an annual meeting ever – but it was certainly the largest in my memory. It was wonderful to see so many members who care about their Club attend the meeting and voice their opinions. It will also be remembered as one of the longest meetings. There was quite a lot of business to conduct and members had questions that took time to answer. Also, this is the first time I remember having more than one person run for each of the officers positions. About twice as many ballots were cast this year as last, so the teller committee worked long and hard to deliver the vote count.

The membership reelected Mike Lewis as President and Jean Lawler as Vice President. Linda Tinga was elected Secretary-Treasurer. Tom Cheatham and Chris Furr were elected to three year terms on the Board of Directors. They join Elise Beall and John Cockrum who have two years, and Duncan McFadyen and Brad Walls who have one year remaining on their terms.

Thank you to Henrietta Godwin and Deak Walden who completed three year terms on the Board of Directors. Both Henrietta and Deak have worked hard to make the Hanover Seaside Club a better place for all members. We appreciate their dedication. Thanks also to our outgoing Secretary-Treasurer, Wilson Horton, who has served tirelessly for approximately 25 years. Wilson is looking forward to enjoying the beach with his friends and family without having to work or answer questions every time he relaxes in his beach chair.

The minutes of the meeting will be posted in the Members Section of this website after they are approved by the Board of Directors.

It’s not too late to volunteer to serve on a Standing Committee. You can view the committees in the Members Section under Hanover Seaside Club Documents. If you would like to serve, notify Mike Lewis by clicking on Contact the President under the Member Section.

Mark your calendars now for the 2013 annual meeting which will be held on Saturday, February 9 at 2:00 at the Hanover Seaside Club!

Annual Meeting!

Just a reminder that the Annual Meeting of the Hanover Seaside Club will be held on Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 2:00 pm in the Club Dining Room. All regular members in good standing (2012 dues paid) are encouraged to attend.

Several changes in our methods of bookkeeping and financial controls will be discussed. At the request of several members, a CPA firm was hired to look into the Club’s books. Grady Windham of Windham & Henderson hopes to be on hand to discuss his compilation of the 2011 books. If he is not available, he will have a report prepared for work completed. Also at the request of the membership, the Board has hired Crystal Ahumada of KeraTech to perform all accounts receivable and accounts payable functions. Crystal will be at the meeting to answer questions about our current budget and financial controls being put in place to improve the operation of the Club. A representative from Phoenix Enviro will also attend to provide information to the membership regarding renovation needed on the 3rd floor of the Club.

If you have not done so, you will be able to volunteer to serve on one of the new Standing Committees at the meeting on Saturday. The Board’s hope is that Standing Committees will improve the overall operation of the Club, allow us to handle business in a faster and more efficient method, and allow regular and seasonal members to have input into the operation of the Hanover Seaside Club.

Elections will take place during the meeting. Two new Board members and the President, Vice President, and Secretary-Treasurer will be elected. You must attend the meeting to cast your vote and let your preference be known!

Maintenance on the website is ongoing. Hopefully all of the documents in the Member Section of the website will be available for members to view prior to the annual Meeting.
