On Friday August 15th. Ballots for a new board of directors were mailed to all
paid members of the downtown boathouse. It is VERY important that you return the
ballot in the included, stamped envelope by September 15th. If enough ballots
are not received by the closing date the result will not count. So PLEASE send
the ballots back as soon as you can.
It has bee brought to our attention that some of the ballot envelopes had the
