Birch Bay Village Bulletin - August 2016

The BBV Golf Club promotes an organized

golfing environment created in the spirit of the game of golf, open to men and

women of all experience and skill levels.

The Scramble Club

for beginners and intermediate golfers.

No Handicap Required.

Join new golfers and intermediate golfers and play in orga-

nized tournaments. In a scramble format, each player in a

group hits a shot and then all players play forward from the

group’s best ball through putting. This is a relaxed, fun way

to get out on the course and play with golfers with similar

golf skills. Mondays at 3:30pm. Drop by the Pro Shop to

join.

On Tournament Days

There is still room on the course for other players.

Red, White, Blue Tournament Results The tournament held on Saturday, July 2 was a scramble for-

mat with four person teams playing from six red tees, six

white tees and six blue tees. This tournament with a $500

payout attracted a group of 48 players and the winning team

had a score of 55. Congratulations to these winners, and to

all who came out to play. First Place team: Chuck and Zoe Coplin, Jim and Lin-

Fundraiser Tournament

Fish Fry Dinner, Live Auction The Fundraiser tournament / Fish Fry held on July 16/17 was

another great success for the players and auction attendees.

The Social Committee served up a delicious meal. Many

thanks to Herb Beitel and Bob Simpson who kept the auc-

tion fast-paced and fun.

The community support for the

Fundraiser was outstanding with

a record number of hole spon-

sors, auction items and raffle

items; and member-selected diffi-

cult, but fun, pin locations. The

funds raised will help continue

our Junior Program as well as

course and facility improve-

ments.

Thanks to all our sponsors, do-

nors, tournament golfers, auction buyers, Al Koch and Stu

Smith in the Pro Shop, and our social committee for making

this a success.

G O L F L E S S O N S JUNIOR GOLF - for youth ages 8-16 years with lessons on

Saturdays at 10am (weather permitting). Juniors will learn

golf fundamentals, course etiquette, course management, and

rules.

INTRODUCTION TO GOLF -This flexible golf instruction

program goes for five weeks and consists of five 90-minute

lessons taught at the practice area and on the course. This is

an excellent class for a beginner’s introduction to golf or for

a long time golfer who has never been trained on the funda-

mentals of the golf swing.

Classes cover putting, chipping, pitching, and full swing with

irons, fairway woods, and driver. During the on-course por-

tion of each class, we cover topics such as: golf etiquette,

course management, and the rules of golf. By the end of the

class, students will be familiar with playing on a golf course,

how to play with other golfers, and will have a practice plan

that will help them improve their newly acquired skills.

The following class is forming for August: Fridays,

2pm - Adults - Introduction to Golf

To find out more about our Golf Club programs, email Ernie

Hutchins at [email protected] and be added to the

mailing list for program announcements.

Summer Reminders for All

Respect private property at all times.

Non-golfers: The golf course may seem empty and invit-

ing but it remains in use for golfing only. So, please,

no walking, biking, playing, etc., on the course; don’t

risk being injured or causing inadvertent damage to

the course.

Honor the ‘honor box’: If you don’t have a valid/current

Annual Golf Pass and the Golf Shop is closed, you

must pay the $14 day fee.

Golfers: The course is still prone to damage during the

summer, so please keep motor carts on the concrete

pathways as much as possible, keep hand carts off tee

boxes and greens, and repair fairway and green div-

ots that you and others make to keep the course

healthy and in good playing condition for those who

follow. Thank you!

See you on the tee at BBV!!!

YACHT CLUB NEWS

And the hits just keep on coming! The Birch Bay Village

YC Cruise Committee just keeps bringing their ‘A’ game

when it comes to hosting cruises. The “Around Orcas”

cruise, hosted by Russ and Marsha Murkowski and co-

hosted by Ralph and Marion Falk, was another example

of the energy and creativity that our cruising team

brings to cruising.

The cruise started off with an impromptu stop at

Sucia Island. It seems many boats had the same idea, and

we had a significant contingent to get a jump start on

the festivities. Then it continued strong on the two Or-

cas Island stops, Rosario and Deer Harbor. Cruise

Hosts on Bays Finale (Russ and Marsha Murkowski), and

Keolani (Ralph and Marion Falk) were joined by Blown

Away (Steve and Lynda Brand), Commander (Bill and Lyn Rackley), Makena Cove (Rick and Lynda Smith), Phase 2

(Bob and Pat Simpson and their delightful guests), Sans

Souci (Ed Stipkala and Marian Hickey), Shepherd Moon

(Dave and Gaye Sawicki), and True North (Chris and Ag-

nes Doutre). Benz (Jerry Stege) returned home after

Sucia but most of us continued on as far as Deer Har-

bor. At both stops, our hosting team organized some

fun activities, like a scavenger hunt and some games. The

Simpson crew won first prize in the scavenger hunt, but

there were several prizes handed out, including a pound

of bacon for Commodore Bill Rackley. You’ll have to

ask him how that came about.

As the acting Cruise Committee Chairman, I im-

press upon the hosts that all the plans for meals on the cruise are strictly a function of how much energy they

want to put into it. After all, they’re supposed to have

fun too. But that never seems to result in a shortage of

delicious meals provided for the hungry cruisers. The

hosts really outdid themselves this time, I think, with

toasted bagels in the breakfast menu at Rosario, where

even a bit of rain couldn’t “dampen” our enjoyment, and

individual fruit-granola-yogurt parfaits for breakfast at

Deer Harbor. And if you missed this cruise then you

missed what was possibly the yummiest burgers for din-

ner. And, of course, our cruisers always come through

with delicious side dishes and appetizers.

At Deer Harbor, our hosts arranged for a van to

take anyone interested up Mount Constitution. The

view from the top is spectacular, and it really reminds us

all of just what an amazing part of the world we live in.

And a bit of the history of the island can be found there as well. Anyone who cared to could stop in East Sound

for a bit of shopping, then Bill drove everyone back to


YACHT CLUB NEWS CONT’D

the boats where some serious afternoon loafing could

happen. We even had time for an impromptu jam ses-

sion with Agnes Doutre and Steve Brand.

Our last evening at Deer Harbor was really fes-

tive, with a dinner at the Deer Harbor Inn. By this time,

Larry and Sharin VanderYacht joined us, just adding

some more happy smiles and good energy to our fun

group. It was a huge group, and the staff at the restau-

rant never skipped a beat serving us. Special requests,

split plates, and separate checks didn’t faze them at all.

And all this enhanced by the fact that they gave us a

room to ourselves, which allowed for a bit of a presen-

tation to be done. The “Boo Boo” burgee was earned

by and presented to Steve Brand. But you’ll have to ask him how that came about. It was a really great way to

top off this segment of the cruise.

Alas, many cruisers had commitments back

home, so only five of our boats went on to Roche Har-

bor. It was a tearful farewell for some on Wednesday.

Three days of warm, gorgeous weather settled in mak-

ing it easy to just laze around, shop, explore Mosquito

Pass and English Camp by dingy, or climb up on

someone’s fly bridge and enjoy Roche’s daily lowering of

the “colors” ceremony at sunset. The next morning our

hosts pulled off another hit potluck breakfast. Featured

were Marion Falk’s fabulous breakfast casserole and

Marsha Murkowski’s tasty breakfast burritos. The last

afternoon saw a really fun Bocce Ball tourney at the har-

bor’s almost regulation and almost level courts. Every-

one played. Ralph Falk presented the winning team a

tasty chocolate bar then pulled out another large bag of chocolates in which everyone shared. It was a great way

to spend a pleasant afternoon.

Finally, it was time to return to Birch Bay. Some

went straight home and some went to Sucia to get a

break in the long ride. Two went to Jones Island. Wher-

ever they wound up, they all wore smiles as they

thought about the wonderful trip they had just complet-

ed. I can’t say enough about the team on this year’s

Cruise Committee. I hope everyone had as much fun as

I did, and I hope to see lots of you on the next cruise.

Agnes Doutre.

MARINA TIDBITS

Dock space in the BBV marina is very limited. To pre-

vent accidents and keep unwanted difficulties from aris-

ing, it is necessary for everyone to pitch in and keep the

dock area around each boat slip clear of: buckets,

shrimp pots, crab pots, extra lines, buoy’s, tender/dinghy’s and a host of other items. (see Marina R&R’s

5.5 regarding keeping the docks clear of debris).

I know it can be difficult to both remove fishing gear/

crab pots from your boat in order to clean and straight-

en up without placing items on the dock. Extra items

that you are tempted to leave on the dock should either

be put back on your boat when you are finished clean-

ing it, or be removed from the dock entirely.

Items left on the dock are detrimental in many ways.

Wet items left on the wooden dock does not allow the

wood to completely dry and hastens wood rot. Nor-

mally this is not a big deal, however it has a cumulative

affect if it is done over and over again for many years.

Items left on docks are also subject to being stolen OR,

if left for too long will be confiscated. Also, when items

are left on the dock it makes dock maintenance difficult.

Even something as simple as sweeping mussel shells and

barnacles off the dock becomes a major ordeal. When

that happens, the Dock Guy (me) will just move to the

next finger and clean or do maintenance there.

Please, let’s all do our part to maintain a safe and litter-

free dock facility.

Thank you

Terry (The Dock Guy)

MANAGER’S NOTES

I was asked to clarify for membership the difference be-

tween an A.E.D and a defibrillator, there seems to be some

confusion as to terminology.

An A.E.D. and a Defibrillator are the same thing. The

A.E.D. units are Defibrillators. There are currently two

units in the Village. Security has one in the Security truck

and there is one mounted by the door in the Clubhouse.

When first purchased, we needed a doctor's prescription

to be able to purchase the units, but over the years the

unit have become so automatic and easy to use, that one

can purchase them at Costco. The units talk to you and tell

you how to hook them up and then will not allow a shock

to someone who is not in need of a shock, so do not hesi-

tate to use one if there is ever an emergency that may re-

quire a jolt..

CITATIONS

REMINDER—when it comes to removing those

pesky weeds from your property, DO NOT

BURN them out. Burning weeds might seem like

a quick way of dealing with them, but many unin-

tentional fires have been started that way espe-

cially during this time of year when vegetation is very dry.


OFFICE NOTES

NOTARY

Notarization at the BBVCC office is BY AP-

POINTMENT ONLY. Please do not show up

at the office without an appointment, the nota-

ry is not always available. Contact the BBVCC

office at least 24 hours in advance to set up an

appointment for the notary.

Thank you!

ATTENTION

Do your part to keep BBV the wonderful place

it is to live in. Do not drop cigarette butts or any sort of

trash on people’s property or even com-

mon areas. There are plenty of trash cans

available at the parks throughout the Village. Also, don’t let your dog onto people’s prop-

erty to ‘do their duty’. Be respectful, pick up

after your pooch. During the summertime there are more

people walking, riding bikes or skateboards,

or driving their golf carts on the BBV roads,

drive cautiously and be aware of your sur-

roundings.

MARINERS

If you have room and are willing to sublet a

portion of your dock space for a crab boat,

please contact the BBV office. There is al-

ready a wait list for monthly moorage, so an

available spot would be greatly appreciated.
