Welcome To St Marys Boat Club
on Beautiful Grand Lake St. Marys, OH
COMMODORE'S ANNOUNCEMENTS
SMBC’ers – The Club building is officially winterized for the year, with one of the final acts being trussing up the Old Man on our bow and the chain up across the winter storage area.
A few notes:
I checked all the boats after this week Thursday’s high winds and everyone’s looked good although I need to learn more about tying up my tarps! The lock on the chain is the same as the shed key. Please re-lock it when done. It won’t stop a determined boat thief but a raised mast will. The water is off in the club. If you use the restroom we will sink your boat Camera looking aft generally does a good job showing the boats, the one forward where the boats were. If you want access, send your email to smbc@bright.net If you want to work on your boat this winter, great and if you do a walk around the club for any issues. Looking into installing water level sensor in our sump hole to avoid water backup Mark April 17 on your calendar for Spring Splash Dinner & Cocktails at Idlewild.
I miss the lake.

SMBC's "To-do short list" helps the club
The Board of Governors wish to thank its members for all the help that was given this year to accomplish the many items on the Club's to-do list. With members like you the St. Marys Boat Club becomes better each year. Every task completed by a member makes the club better for other members and potential new members. After all, SMBC is a second home for many of us during the summer.
Thanks again!
