SOCIAL COMMITTEE NEWS
SOCIAL COMMITTEE NEWS
SOCIAL COMMITTEE NEWS
Carin, Brenda and I (Derith) met over zoom to discuss ideas for social events for the 2022 summer season. We looked to the survey to improve on social.
14% of our membership who responded to the survey last summer answered that they were only somewhat or not satisfied with the social events.
Using information from the Survey we discussed ways that could make all members happy about the social events at the PJYC for the 2022 summer season.
The survey showed a split between those that are OK with paid events and those that are opposed. I will try to make sure that there will be as many free events as paid events to make it fun for all members and as many free options as we can host.
The survey showed a split between those that wanted more Wednesday night member dinners and some who wanted weekly events spread to other days of the week. My hope is to mix up the days of the weeks, host events evenly spaced in the calendar so that everyone will have an opportunity to join in the fun.
Not surprisingly the survey also showed that we have a few vegetarians, some that do not eat meat, others that do not eat fish, and some encouraging all round healthier options. I will try to remind all of those that sign up to host events to be most inclusive while planning. I also encourage all members to consider hosting the type of event that you’d like!
With that said, I am posting the events that have hosts at this time, some events do not have dates set in concrete as yet so that we can be open to others that may want to host an event.
As chair of the Social Committee I am encouraging members to volunteer to host an event. As a newer member I can only recall the fun events that made me want to continue as a member of the club, there were so many fun dances and dinners that attracted us to the PJYC in the first place. Please host one of your favorites! I will be happy to help in what ever way I can to produce your event by advertising it through social media, signage in the club as well as help with planning, help with food purchases or party supplies.
Welcome to Summer at the PJYC 2022
Wednesday, June 15, 2022 5:30 Cocktails, BYOB, Dinner at 6p
We have a host for Wednesday July 13’s membership cookout. The Lobster Dinner will be held on July 23rd, a Saturday night. Steak night will be an August event though a date has not been set. Mike has agreed to host the Pig Roast again this summer, a date will be set soon. We have a couple of people interested in hosting the Fishing Tournament and that date will also be announced soon. Please email me at fotoderith@sbcglobal.net with your event idea and or dates for an event. We have so many members who are willing to help with events (points) you will have great support and help with whatever fun event that you plan.
In the past we have had such events as a Christmas Party, Italian night, and a brunch. Other ideas that we talked about were a Mexican fiesta, Finger Food Friday and more of the beer and cocktail Tiki Bar evenings. Get creative and give me a call with your event and date.
It would be great if Dock parties and raft outs were be put on the calendar so it you have a date, please email me so that it could be added to all the other fun events!

PJYC MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION
Individuals and families are eligible for membership with PJYC. An application for membership can be located in the document download section of the PJYC website. Individuals and families without boats can be members of PJYC and participate in a wide range of social activities and enjoy the Upper Point Judith Pond waterfront. An interview with the PJYC Membership Chair is required prior to Board of Trustee approval of the membership. Individuals and families with kayaks are encouraged to become members as the Club has covered storage racks and easy access to hand launch adjacent to our property.
There are currently no slips, of any type available for occupancy. A waiting list for slips is currently in effect and one must be a member to be placed on the waiting list. Depending on the length of boat and conforming slips, it does often take a few years for the list to clear. We do not experience much turnover from year to year.
Interested in becoming a PJYC member? Email us at the email provided here in the website, the Membership chair will respond to further discuss membership procedures and details on member responsibilities and member requirements.
