Although I was unable to attend the Chili Cookoff, I hear it was a great hit! Thank you Jennifer Curtis and the Knapp gang for taking charge and providing yet one more great event this season!
As we come to a close of the season, Nan Schultz and her committee with Nick Mates is preparing for our Final Bash. We have chosen the theme: Nautical Adventure. It will be hosted at the Marriott North (Keystone at the Crossing) on November 6th. Cocktails begin at 5:30, Dinner at 6:00 and Dancing at 8:00. We will have a door prize drawing at 10:00 for a FREE ECSC 2022 Membership! Cost is $30 per member and $35 for non-members. $50 at the door for those who do not pre-pay RSVP. Please be sure to RSVP by October 30th! Checks can be mailed to Nick Mates. For Zelle payments, please contact Tom Moore. This will also be your last opportunity to vote for next seasons board. Special Room rates are also available for those who wish to get a room for the night!
I will begin putting together our 2022 schedule of events in December. If you have any suggestions or would like to see something new and different on the schedule, please do not hesitate to let me know.
As always, it is a pleasure to serve my fellow sailors!

*** LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS TO HELP WITH THE ECSC SOCIAL MEDIA. ***
Our club has a very active Facebook group (as most already know), but we also have an Instagram account: @eaglecreeksailingclub
Instagram is more about sharing photos than Facebook is. I’d like to find someone who can help make more posts on the club’s Instagram account. This can be as easy as snapping photos (with your phone) of various boats sailing on the lake or people hanging out around the club. Ideally, the club account would make about 2-3 new posts a week. If you are interested in helping with ECSC’s Instagram account, please reach out to publicity@ecsail.org.
We also have more T-Shirts and 1/4 zips for sale (shown below). If you would like to buy one and have it mailed to you, please contact publicity@ecsail.org.
COMING SOON: Soft shell ECSC jackets (see picture below). I ordered about 22 of these in various sizes. They probably won’t be done until after our Final Bash, so I will make announcements on the Facebook page and can mail the jackets to those interested in buying them.
Sizes & colors are limited to what’s in stock. First come, first served!

The 2021 season is quickly coming to a close. The Lobster Fest was a great success! We served 125 Lobsters and 35 steaks. Thank you to Kenneth and Karen Orndorff for hosting and Erich Rose for his steak grilling skills! Bruce and Ethel Brenner and Steve Earnhart for your boiling skills! I continue to receive positive feedback about bringing your own side dishes for your own group.
Our next event is the Hornback Chili Cookoff held on Saturday, October 16th. This event is hosted by Jennifer Curtis and her crew. She always does a great job offering a family-friendly event with fall activities for the kiddos. For those of you who are new to the club, bring your best pot of chili and fixings. Everyone will have a chance to taste and vote on the best pot and then enjoy a full bowl….or two. Start time is roughly 5:00pm following the regatta. Keep an eye out on Facebook and your email for additional details. Save the date for November 6th for the Final Bash! More details to come.

Our beach party in July was a great success and I do believe a good time was had by all! A big THANK YOU to Nick Mates and his crew, Jackie Deppe, Chuck & Nancy Goff, Tom & Kathy Newgent, Tim & Ardi Hollingsworth, and Jim & Weir…and Amy Miller for arranging the caterer. Also, I do believe the Hobie raffle was a great success as well! Thanks Dennis Robertson and Jenipher Gee for taking the lead on the fundraiser for our Junior Sailing Program!
Although we are taking a break from events in August, Amy and I continue the planning process for the remainder of the season. Our Labor Day event will be held on Saturday, September 4th from 5pm to 7pm. The club will provide the Burgers and Brats and are asking attendees to bring their own side dishes to share with their own group. As we did for Memorial Day, we will cue the tables to the serving line. We are actively seeking a host/hostess and volunteers for this event.
September 18th is our Lobster Festival! We will begin at 5pm. Due to the increasing cost of Lobster and Steak, we are requiring Pre-Paid Reservations. Cost will be $20 per members and $25 for non-members. RSVP and Payment required by September 8th! No reservations will be accepted after September 8th as I will be submitting the final lobster count to the lobster company. We will have a table set up at the Labor Day event to take reservations and payment. You may also mail your reservation and check made out to ECSC to Vickie Greenough – please refer to the club membership directory for address. Please contact me for alternative payment options.
The final bash planning is well underway! Be on the lookout for our survey and additional information. We will require Pre-Paid Reservations for this event as well.
Thank you all for your patience as we continue to navigate the pandemic. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sail On –

Hello!
It’s been fun getting to meet new people while distributing the 1/4 zips to the 100+ members that bought them. I’ve recruited some family assistance from my mother, Katie Williams, in helping sell the new apparel. A huge thank you to her for the assistance!
As I mentioned in my last article, I have some T-Shirts being made as we speak. I will likely do the sales a bit differently this time around. For anyone interested in paying $6-$8 or so in shipping, I’ll just take orders online and ship everyone their T-Shirts. I’m sure we’ll have many shirts leftover that we can bring to Wednesday night festivities, Sunday racing, and all the social events. But I thought a 100% streamlined, online sales process could be easier. We’ll see if that’s true!
Please see the Letter-to-the-Editor submission from Rich Fox at the bottom of the Harbormaster article. Everyone is welcome to contribute an article to the Telltales. If you’re interested, please send your article to publicity@ecsail.org.
