SailTime Channel Islands Sailing Newsletter - November 2009
Ahoy All!
October came and went in a blinding fury of OC challenges, moving, boxes and endless cleaning. In so doing, there was no October newsletter...Interestingly, I did not get one comment from anybody that they missed it. So that got me to thinking that after five years of pumping out the monthly news, it's time to make a change. This will be our last newsletter like this. From here on all "news" items that would normally be found here will be found in regular postings on the blog, at Facebook and at Meetup. The poor ole newsletter has just become redundant and stale. So, its time to move on!
We highly recommend with this passing that you make sure you are signed up to receive notices of new blog posts. You can do that in the space provided here below, or on the blog itself. If you are an RSS feed reader you can also sign up for our feed on the blog.
I also recommend that you sign up for Facebook and Meetup - that way you wont miss a thing going on around here. Follow the instructions below
