Hello all Coastal Ski & Outing Club Members,

I can’t believe it is August already!  In some ways this year is going so slowly and yet we’re well into the summer already.  Keeping that in mind, your club is adding more socially distancing activities to our monthly events.  Take some time to look over what is on the Website Event Schedule and sign up for the ones that strike your fancy.  We look forward to reconnecting with you.  If you have any suggestions for activities, please text our VP of Activities Gene Young or President Elena Moglia .  We would be happy to get your ideas.

We are trying something different for August.   We will be having a Beach Meet-Up on Tuesday, August 11 at 5PM, followed by a ZOOM Monthly Meeting for non-beach goers.  I know I said we were canceling meetings until September, but let’s meet at the Beach at 65^th Ave North in Myrtle Beach.  Bring your own Beach Chairs, Drinks, and Food to enjoy a social distancing.  Meet Up with fellow members.  Those not able to join us on the beach can Zoom in at 6PM for a short zoom meeting “broadcast” from the beach.  A zoom meeting notice will be sent to all members.

Collection of Annual Membership dues are being taken now and are due by September 1.  Already, 60 members have renewed their 2020-2021 membership.  If you plan to attend the members’ meeting on September 8, you can also pay then.  If payment is not received by the September meeting your membership will become inactive and you will no longer receive club emails and notice of events.  Just fill out the membership application, which was emailed to you in the Weekly Communication dated July 1 and mail the application, along your check for $25, for each member, to CSOC, PO Box 8043, Myrtle Beach, SC 29578.  The application form is also on our website.

Stay Safe Stay Healthy,

Elena Moglia
