Commodore’s Log for November, 2023

SIBC had a Great Celebration at the Year-End-Bash on November 14th at the Sunset Pavilion at the Delegal Marina. The dinner was catered by B Catering and the food was great and plentiful. We were treated to a great pasta salad, fried shrimp, BBQ chicken and herbed Mahi Mahi. Let’s not forget the deserts: a chocolate tort cake, Tiramisu log cake, cheese cake and Pumpkin cheese cake. We had a host bar that served a variety of great wine and rum drinks while they lasted. The music provided was great background music during dinner and after dinner we danced to our hearts content to “OUR KIND OF MUSIC” ….Oldies but Goodies.

In addition we also were able to conduct a little SIBC business and voted to accept the new SIBC Bylaws.

On Nov 2nd, a few of SIBC’s more adventurous members and Sea Sisters went kayaking on Ebenezer Creek. When we arrived at Ebenezer Creek at 9:00 am and it was 35 F out. This was going to be a COLD Kayak trip! The few hearty souls on the adventure were able to see the Ebenezer Creek historic ecosystem first hand although the creek was very low and we were limited to travel along the main creek bed. Our members were able to kayak this scenic black water creek that flows through Effingham County and connects to the Savannah River at the Ebenezer Historic site. The guides showed us the giant cypress and Tupelo trees that inhabit this area. It was truly a unique experience. A Good Time was had by all although because of the frigid temperature and that many kayakers were wet, we did not make it to lunch…Oh well, next time we will do this trip in warmer weather with higher water levels.

Here is the Tally:

Ballots Collected at Year-End-Bash – 29
Absentee Ballots Collected – 3
Number of members approving the Ballot measure – 31
Number of members abstaining to vote – 1

96 % of our members present at the Year-End-Bash or represented by an Absentee Ballot voted to implement the New SIBC Bylaws. This meets our criteria of: “Amendments to the Club’s Bylaws shall be approved by a 2/3 majority vote by members in good standing at special meeting called for said purpose or by written proxy or by electronic communication.” New Bylaws are formally approved and will govern SIBC going forward.

Thank You for participating.
