Board Members
General Membership
Hello,
We would like to let everyone know that Shari and I will be taking a leave of absence from all club activities for the remainder of 2025. I have resigned my board position as Parliamentarian. As this is an appointed position, Richard as Commodore will appoint a new Parliamentarian.
Everything is fine, however, we are at a point in our lives where other commitments take priority. We need to focus our time and energy towards those commitments, but will remain members in good standing. We wish everyone well and we will see you on the water (although Shari said you will not see her on the water; more likely in the back yard at the Moose Lodge).
Sincerely,
David Young, Past Commodore
Shari Young, Past Vice Commodore
From Richard Panuschka, Commodore
Please join me in thanking David and Shari for their many years of service to this club. SLTWYC would not be the club that it is without their hard work and dedication. Here are a few notable accomplishments of the Youngs for SLTWYC:
- Merging the South Lake Tahoe Yacht Club and Windjammers Yacht Club to form the South Lake Tahoe Windjammers Yacht Club
- Reinstatement of the club’s 501c3 non-profit status
- Establishment of a clubhouse (even if it didn’t survive COVID)
- Restructuring the club to survive the COVID-19 pandemic and Caldor Fire
Shari and David: your service to this club has NOT gone unnoticed and I can’t thank you enough. This is NOT “goodbye”!
