Upcoming Events
All upcoming events, including Socials, General Meetings and Board Meetings are cancelled
until further notice.
Zoom meeting
No, you’re not watching a “where are they now” version of the Brady Bunch opening. With the
pandemic upon us, we have resorted to video-conferencing using Zoom® as opposed to in-person
socials at Flip-Flops. So, the Sailing Single socializing will have to be limited to these Hollywood
Squares chats until we get the “all-clear”.

From the Helm April, 2020
Members Matter so we are doing a virtual happy
hour on Zoom on Thursday's at 7:00 pm to connect,
laugh and have a cocktail. Check your emails for
instructions. We have had two so far and the
numbers are growing. So, join us to see your
friends faces and laugh with them.
At the last Virtual Happy Hour, I mentioned the
update for Flip Flops and returning to real happy
hours. Lynette Beal and I have been reviewing and
working on getting the updated information. She
has contributed a lot to the club and I asked her to
help since she and I have had a good relationship
with the restaurant in the past. So, I appreciate her
help and thank her for time with Flip Flops.
We have found out there are several steps before
we can get together.
1. First - the Governor has to open the state and local government, i.e. Fort Lauderdale.
2. Second - the Federal Government has bars on Stage 2 of the reopening.
3. Third - there are rules for the number of attendees in one place.
When this does occur, it will be limited to 50
people and 6 feet distance from each other. We are
still waiting to hear the process and look forward to
continuing at Flip Flops as they welcome us back.
As for the Board and General meetings, we will be
doing that on Zoom. The board will meet April
27th and the General Meeting will meet May 7th.
I will send out notices as usual.
Please be safe out there and protect yourselves.
This club for over 30 years will continue to grow,
support members and enjoy sailing and social
activities as we move forward.
Best Regards,
Ethel Facundo, Commodore – 2020

Most of you should have gotten a phone call from one of
our board members. Not being nosy, just want to make sure
everyone is OK and managing in these trying times. We
may not like cabin fever, but it’s better than that other
illness that’s going around.
Also, we’d like to know how people are managing under quarantine conditions. Lina Farrar has sent in some photos
about how she is spending her time (last page). Please send me pictures and some narrative about how you have been
occupying your time. This can be recipes, mask-making, dressing up that one corner of your room you use for video
conferences so we think the rest of your place is equally elaborate, whatever.

From one of our members:
Happy Easter
It has been a challenge staying at home
but I have been enjoying walking ,
cooking and some gardening. Also
doing yoga classes online.
Appreciate all the updates that our
Sailing Board sent us from time to time
and the possible online schedule of
activities. Getting excited.
Wishing all my fellow sailing club
friends to remain safe and healthy.
Also, looking forward to see all of you
again. We need a party and a drink!
Stay safe.
Lina Farrar
