President's Ponderings

Happy Holiday Season 2015!  This can only mean the beach season is right around the corner.  The Board and various committees are busy planning for the 2016 season.  The bathhouses are being reviewed for fixing, dining is looking at new options with Kevin and entertainment is oh so busy.  Speaking of entertainment Wendy has been able to secure 3 of the top bands for the 2016 season; Those Guys, Brass Attack and for the first time at the GBC Steve Smith and the Nakeds.  Reservations for these nights will need to be in early as we expect a sell-out. 
The dining room now has a new baseboard heating system installed.  This will provide the club with more opportunities during the colder months to host functions.  Please keep the club in mind for booking holiday, retirement, birthday and general parties. 
Please remember to submit your deposit and applications for the 2016 season by December 1, 2015.  We've received a great deal of interest in the club from potential new members.  Our secret little diamond in the rough Club is becoming known to all. 
In closing, from the GBC Board of Directors we'd like to wish everyone a safe, healthy and happy holiday season.  
Membership's Memos

December 1st is an important deadline

If you have an interest in renting the new two bedroom "cabana"  at 221 Sand Hill Cove Rd please contact us immediately. If it is not rented by December 1st, we will be giving it to an outside rental agency for the 2016 summer season.

Please remember the deadline for deposits for the 2016 season is also December 1st. We will be using our waiting lists to fill openings for memberships, cabanas and bathhouses. If your deposit is not sent in, it is likely you will lose your spot. Also, Shareholders will lose their discount if we haven't received your deposit. 

One change in this seasons policy manual:

"Any member who has not paid their bill in full by December 1st of the same year will have their name removed from all waiting lists for add on options. They may request to be added to a waiting list when they pay all membership fees for the following season and will be added using the new date."
