Jeff: "but I see positive changes at the Club" "Positive changes"? Please help this old country boy understand what you are talking about. Retail sales are down from last July, bottom line performance is off by 48%, and last night the menu for dinner was the same old nothing. The closest thing to a premium bottle of beer was National Bohemian in a can. The only thing that could be considered a positive is the economic stimulus we provided to the surronding community with our over the top six figure payroll."It took us 40 years or do to screw it up" Speak for yourself. When I left the board in 2010 after three years of service the Yacht Club had just enjoyed its best year in ten. We actually came within $15,000.00 of breaking even. Those numbers are now in the rear view mirror and we are back up to just shy of $175,000.00 in losses before depreciation and after $100,000.00 in decorating. So, in reality, it only took us two years to "screw it up". Marty |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Actually, there is a basis to believe things will get better. For the first time in my memory, we have hired a well qualified manager to run an operation like this. He has only been on the job for a couple of months... but I see positive changes at the Club. In my opinion, the food and service are better and there is more variety. It took us 40 years or do to screw it up so a complete change in two months is not possible. Will it get better? I do not know ... but I am willing to give this significant change a chance to work and I have increased my use of the club on that basis. Hope to see you there sometime. Jeff Knepper |
