On Saturday, May 4, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation will sponsor Great Strides, their largest national fund raising event, at Mayfaire Towne Center.  In 2012, Great Strides raised nearly $40 million to help support life-saving research, quality care, and life saving programs.

The Wessell family, along with the Hatch family and lots of friends, will be walking for Team Jozie.  We invite you to join us.  If you would like to register to walk with us, go HERE to register.  Be sure to note that you are a walker who is a member of a team and choose Team Jozie from the drop-down menu.  If you would like to support Team Jozie, but aren’t able to walk, go HERE to make a donation.

Team Jozie appreciates your support!

Victoria, Jozie and Bryan Wessell

Due to a previously scheduled dinner, the March 15th meeting of the Hanover Seaside Club Board, originally planned for the Club dining room, has been relocated to the conference room at Container Products Corporation at 112 N. College Road. The meeting will begin at 6:00 pm.

Getting tired of deciding what to cook every night, going to the grocery store, cooking, then cleaning the kitchen? It makes me tired just thinking about it! Why not take a break and join your HSC friends for Tuesday night suppers at the beach? Let Mollene, Beth and the crew do the work while you enjoy great food with good friends. The menu changes weekly – and the people who attend get input into the next weeks meal. You can call the Club on Sunday to find out the menu for Tuesday supper. Reservations must be made by Monday at 6:00pm. If less than 50 reservations are made, the meal will be cancelled. You will be notified on Tuesday if the meal will not be served.

Hope to see you there!

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.

Come ring in the New Year with your Hanover Seaside Club friends!  The celebration will begin at 8:00.  Enjoy music and dancing, and heavy hors d’oeuvres.  BYOB.  Reservations are required and are limited to 100 members and their guests.  Cost is $10 per person.

There are still a few rooms available for those who would like to stay.

To make party and room reservations, call the Club office at 910.256.2726.

Come join the fun!
