ANNUAL MEETING SUMMARY: The Annual Meeting of Regular Members was held in the parking lot on Saturday, October 24 at 2:00pm. Thanks to all members who attended. We believe this was a record setting meeting – over in less than one hour. There was nothing controversial on the agenda, so the meeting moved quickly. A special thank you to all of the volunteers for this meeting: Francie Godwin, Laurie Hutchens, Lee Lambert, Robert McIver, Steve Jeremias, Michael Gieschen, Brad Walls, Betty Jean Lanier, Helen Marie Romeo, Bob Morton, Anna Hughes, Brian Moore, and the 2019-2020 Board.
The membership approved the following changes to the Constitution:
- Article II, Section V – … if the person elected to fill the unexpired term shall have served less than one half (1/2) of said unexpired term, then that person shall not be limited by the provisions of Article I, Section 3 and may be elected to a full three year term immediately after the expiration of said unexpired term. If elected to a new three-year term, then thereafter all the provisions of Article I, Section 3 would apply to that person. …
- Article IV, Section 2- In the event of a State of Emergency, Governor’s Executive Order, or Force Majeure the meeting may be postponed or held in an alternate manner as determined by the Board.
- Article V, Section 3 – When Constitutional limits allow addition of members, preference will be given to children of current members.
The revised Constitution will be placed in the Quick Links Section of the website within the week.
The following Board Members were elected to one-year terms:
President – Jan Sheppard
Vice President – Elise Beall
Secretary/Treasurer – Brett Riggs
Cher Pridgen and Jake Wessell were elected to three-year terms on the Board of Directors.
The membership approved the Budget for the 2020-21 year. The budget will be placed on the website in the near future.
CLUB WEBSITE: Many of our members have not registered for our new website at www.hanoverseaside.club. This is a very robust site which will make your member experience so much better. You can click HERE to find instructions for registering. The primary member must register first, you must use a 7 digit member number, and names must be EXACTLY the way they are listed in our data base. Please read the instructions carefully. Call the office if you have problems registering.
605 S. LUMINA: Work continues on the duplex at 605 S. Lumina. While we are a few days behind schedule, we feel that the project will be completed on time and on budget. The timeline states that we will be ready to rent the duplex on July 1; however, we hope to have it ready a little earlier. A committee has been appointed to help pick out fixtures, colors, furniture etc. We will continue to show pictures as we proceed.
FISCAL YEAR/BILLING: Our fiscal year ends on Saturday. If you have not done so, please check to make sure you do not have a balance due on your account. You may pay your balance online at www.hanoverseaside.club by logging in and clicking on STATEMENTS or by calling the Club office. As soon as the fiscal year has been closed out, we will be mailing bills for the member year that begins on November 1. Again, you can pay online, by calling the front desk, or by mailing a check to the PO Box. If your address has changed, call the office ASAP to give them your current mailing address.
2020-21 STANDING COMMITTEES: Within the next couple of weeks, the Board will be appointing members to serve on Standing Committees. Both Regular and Seasonal Members are encouraged to serve on committees. To volunteer, please call the Club Office and give your name and the preferred committee. The Committees along with their duties are listed HERE.
UPCOMING MENUS: For the month of November, dinner will be served on Friday evenings and lunch will be served on Sundays. There will be no Tuesday evening dinner. All meals must be paid for when you go through the serving line. Since bills have not been sent, dining room minimums are not available for use. We will not place meals on your account, so be prepared to pay by cash, check, or credit card! As always, you may order dine in or take out.
Sunday, November 1 ~ Fried Chicken or BBQ Pork
Friday, November 6 ~ Prime Rib and Fried Shrimp
Sunday, November 8 ~ Fried Chicken or BBQ Ribs
Friday, November 13 ~ Fried Flounder or Fried Shrimp
Sunday, November 15 ~ Fried Chicken or Lasagna
Friday, November 20 ~ Prime Rib and Grilled Shrimp
SURFBOARD SHELVES/STORAGE: The storage shed on the North side of the building contains shelves that are rented for surfboards. All surfboards MUST be kept on the assigned shelves – not lying on the ground or leaned against the wall. And, no other items, such as chairs, rafts, tubes, or toys are allowed in this unit. Presently, the storage unit is a mess! Everything but surfboards must be removed immediately, and surfboards must be placed on the properly rented shelf. If you have rented a shelf and your Board is too long to fit, please remove the Board from the locker. We do not have lockers longer than the shelves, so we cannot accommodate boards that will not fit. All boards not appropriately stored and other items in the storage locker will be disposed of on December 1.
