   Leukemia Cup Dinghy Regatta The Dallas Corinthian Yacht Club and Corinthian Sailing Club have 
              joined together to host an expanded Leukemia Cup Regatta this year 
              to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society helping to fight 
              blood-related cancers. The regatta will consist of a Dinghy Regatta 
              on April 24-25 at CSC and a Keelboat Regatta on May 1-2 at DCYC 
              on Lake Lewisville. The Dinghy Regatta at White Rock Lake will be 
              open to dinghies and Corinthian Class boats. Five boats of any one 
              class will race as a one-design class. Boats that do not form a 
              one-design class will race as a handicap class. Watch the website 
              and future newsletters for more details. The NOR should be on the 
              website in a couple of weeks.   A New By-Law - Member Service Requirement   At the CSC Annual Business Meeting held on January 15th, 2004 at 
              Royal Oaks Country Club, a By-Laws addition was approved that encourages 
              involvement by all club members in club activities. As an all volunteer 
              organization, without any paid staff, we depend entirely on our 
              membership to keep the club afloat and functioning. The By-Laws 
              change defines a minimum service requirement which has been set 
              at 8 hours for 2004 and applies to each regular and associate membership. 
              This requirement may be fulfilled by the member, or the member's 
              spouse or dependents.   To assist the membership in fulfilling this requirement, projects, 
              such as helping with Spruce-Up Day, special club regattas or social 
              events, cleanup or special construction tasks, will be identified 
              in our club newsletter, The Mainsheet. In addition, a new Help Wanted 
              forum will be added to our website where requests for assistance 
              may be posted.   How will this be administered? It is each member's responsibility 
              to seek out opportunities to serve the club. As part of next year's 
              (2005) membership renewal, each member will be asked to state that 
              they have fulfilled the service requirement or remit a fee in lieu 
              of having performed the service. The Board has set that fee at $100 
              for this year.   The Member Service Requirement may be fulfilled through participation 
              in any of the following activities:  
               Helping with club sponsored work days, shoreline cleanup or 
                improvement projectsAssisting in a club sponsored sailing education program
 Serving on race committee duty for club sponsored regattas
 Helping with club sponsored social events
 Participating on a Board of Director's committee
 Completing other activities approved by a club officer
   Your Board wants to actively involve each of you in the club's 
              activities, for your enjoyment as well as the club's benefit. In 
              many cases paying a $100 fee may seem the lesser of payment when 
              compared to an eight hour service requirement. We understand some 
              members may elect to submit $100 rather than become more actively 
              involved. This is a fee not a penalty and no stigma is associated 
              with a member's choice to elect cash over service. We look forward 
              to seeing more folks involved and sharing in the benefit each of 
              us will see.   Current Posted CSC Service Requests

 Harold Westerheim Honored OLD SALT TROPHY for 2003 was awarded to Harold Westerheim at the 
              annual business meeting. In making the award Max Hibbs described Salt as an ingredient that 
              gives savor, piquancy or zest. It expresses sharpness of wit, pungency, 
              and common sense. Salt denotes a dependable steadfast person used 
              in the phrase "salt of the earth". It also means a sailor 
              when used in the phrase "a tale worthy of an old salt". This trophy is meant for a man who is the salt of the earth; a 
              man who for many years has been the backbone of the Rebel Fleet. 
              We give this Old Salt trophy to Harold Westerheim although over 
              the years he has proven that he will never grow old. Congratulations 
              Harold!   For The Love of the Lake   For the Love of the Lake (FTLOTL) is a grass-roots group of volunteers 
              working to improve White Rock Lake in cooperation with the Dallas 
              Park and Recreation Department. Since 1995, FTLOTL has organized 
              the Second Saturday Shoreline Spruce-Up. The second Saturday of 
              each month, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., volunteers pick up trash 
              and debris at White Rock Lake. The Corinthian Sailing Club (CSC) 
              is one of 44 groups who have adopted a portion of the shoreline 
              and park to reduce the liter and make White Rock Lake safe and enjoyable 
              for everyone. CSC is responsible for maintaining that portion of 
              the shoreline in front of the club. We want to thank Cynthia and Bryan Hagar, Warren Lyon, Bill Summitt, 
              Kevin Flynn, Ken and Kendra Brown, Mac McCoy, Bowman and Jim O'Connor, 
              and Phyllis Blomstedt for participating in the January Second Saturday

   MINUTES OF THE 2004 CORINTHIAN SAIL CLUB 
              ANNUAL MEETINGJANUARY 15th, 2004
   The meeting was called to order by Frank Richards at 8:00 PM Commodore Richards opened the meeting by welcoming the membership 
              and directing their attention to the by-law ballots and financial 
              statements on each of the tables. He then began the discussion of 
              old business with the reports from the board members. OLD BUSINESS: COMMITTEE REPORTS Registrar of Slips and Davits - Jeff Bodkin:Davit utilization is currently at 96% and has hovered between 
              that number and 93% throughout the year. Boat pad fill rates have 
              remained close to 60% occupancy throughout the year. It was noted 
              that many of the members have re-built davits in the past year and 
              this has helped the overall appearance of the Club facilities. Mr. 
              Bodkin will continue in this role for 2004
 Rear Commodore Membership - Dudley Bayne:It was noted that the Club had 201 Regular Members in 2003 plus 
              92 Associate and 8 Honorary for a total of 301 Memberships. Overall 
              we had 60 new members join the Club in 2003. Mr. Bayne will continue 
              as Rear Commodore Membership.
 Rear Commodore Pier - Mo Berry:Mo indicated that his efforts for 2003 were 30% under budget. Projects 
              undertaken in 2003 included replacing the Laser pad and walkway 
              nearby, renovation of the fire suppression system, replacement of 
              the walkway at the South gate and starting the expansion of the 
              tack room. Thanks were offered to Allen Schmidt for his efforts 
              to maintain the Club facilities. Greta Mittman was introduced as 
              the Rear Commodore Pier for 2004.
 Rear Commodore Entertainment and Publicity - Steve and Dee McCombs:Dee began her presentation by indicating that the social budget 
              for 2003 was slightly over budget and ran through a list of items 
              purchased for the many successful events that were hosted. It was 
              noted that our efforts to sell CSC coffee mugs were very successful 
              having sold out of inventory very quickly, but that we did have 
              several T-shirts available for purchase from the variety of events 
              sponsored by the Club in 2003. Dee felt that their efforts in 2003 
              held true to the traditions of the Club but was proud of the new 
              traditions introduced such as the Sailing for Rhino's fundraiser 
              which raised $1800 for conservation; boats / beer / and brats party; 
              and live auction at the awards dinner which raised $4,600 for the 
              Carol Gough Sailing Education Fund. A special thanks was offered 
              to Michael Mittman for acting as the auctioneer at this event. Rear 
              Commodore for Entertainment and Publicity in 2004 will be Bob & 
              Diane VanBuren.
 Rear Commodore Sailing Education - Sandy DennisonIt was noted that the adult sailing program, woman's racing program, 
              and juniors sailing programs all had a successful year in 2003. 
              A special thank you went out to Bob Harrington for his work on the 
              adult sailing program and Kai Kunnapas for her very successful Dawn 
              Riley sailing clinic and fundraising dinner. Plans for 2004 will 
              include a Spring Break-Out Party for the juniors and a junior sailing 
              email subscription to better keep the information flowing. Sandy 
              indicated that he would return as Rear Commodore Sailing Education 
              for 2004.
 Rear Commodore Equipment - Bob Harrington:Accomplishments for 2003 included the purchase of a new 18' Boston 
              Whaler rescue boat and rebuilding the davit for same to accommodate 
              the additional weight. Bob thanked the many folks who helped out 
              with the adult sailing classes and indicated that of the 29 students 
              who participated in 2003 four purchased boats and are now keeping 
              them at the Club. Bob will continue as Rear Commodore Equipment 
              for 2004.
 Vice Commodore - Tom Miller:The 2003 racing program at CSC was a successful one with well 
              attended weekend races and many newer members taking advantage of 
              the Wednesday night series to increase their skill levels and enjoy 
              the Club. Special events for 2003 included hosting the Area F qualifying 
              events for the Adams and Mallory Cup competitions. A special thank 
              you was given to Bob Gough for his help as PRO for these events. 
              Additionally the format was changed for the Lake Championship which 
              was determined to be a success. It was noted that the Club purchased 
              US Sailing Rule books that are still available to the membership 
              at a very reasonable cost. Plans for 2004 include race management 
              seminars and our hosting of the dinghy portion of the Leukemia Cup 
              Regatta, a very prestigious and worthwhile event. A request for 
              volunteers to help work this event was made to the membership. Tom 
              will continue in his current capacity for 2004.
 Treasurer - Greta Mittman:The Club began the 2003 calendar year with $66,000 in working 
              capital. A budget was set for the year with $133,000 of income and 
              $174,000 of expenses projected. Notable capital expenses in this 
              budget included the purchase of the 17' Whaler rescue boat and replacement 
              of several piers and docks. Actual revenues for 2003 fell $11,000 
              short of the forecasted amount at $122,000 which was largely the 
              result of more stringent enrollment requirements for the Junior 
              Sailing camps. Additionally the Club did not receive any income 
              from advertising sources using the facilities. Offsetting this loss 
              of income was a $14,000 reduction in expenditures largely as a result 
              of the facility improvements and junior sailing equipment costs 
              coming in significantly under budget. It was noted that the social 
              programs did come in over budget for 2003, but generally acknowledged 
              that these efforts benefited the membership as a whole. The club 
              also supported several charitable causes related to sailing. Going 
              into 2004, the Club has $28,000 of working capital available. The 
              $52,000 in the emergency fund remains and invested in certificates 
              of deposit. Total reserves for the Club in 2004 are $80,000. It 
              was also noted that the Club still holds title to the 15' Boston 
              Whaler and that it is available for purchase. Susan Justus was announced 
              as Treasurer for 2004.
 Secretary - Rob Edwards:Commodore Richards announced that Rob was ill and unable to 
              attend this evenings meeting. He thanked Rob for his success in 
              publishing the newsletter in 2003. For 2004, Bob Manning will assume 
              the duties of Secretary.
   BYLAW CHANGES   At this point Commodore Richards put the issue of changes to the 
              bylaws before the membership and introduced Jeff Bodkin, chairman 
              of the bylaws committee, to lead the discussion. The format used 
              to review and vote on the 7 proposed changes was a discussion of 
              the intent of each issue with an opportunity for members to raise 
              any questions regarding the proposal being discussed. After addressing 
              all questions from the members regarding the proposals the floor 
              was opened to discussion on each point in turn. Once the membership 
              had concluded the discussions each point was brought to a show of 
              hands vote. Had any of the votes been close a re-count via written 
              ballot was available. Based upon 42 voting memberships in attendance 
              and a 2/3rds majority required to change the bylaws a quantity of 
              28 votes were required to enact a change. The results and number 
              of affirmative votes are shown below. The revised bylaws, along

   ELECTION OF 2004 OFFICERS Commodore Richards then introduced Past Commodore Bob Gough who 
              chaired the Past Commodores nominating committee. Bob presented 
              the proposed slate of officers to the Club for 2004. A motion from 
              the floor was introduced to accept the board as proposed which was

              to conduct the new business portion of the meeting.   Commodore Wade presented Frank Richards with a CSC burgee as a 
              gift of thanks for his stewardship of the Club in 2003 and then 
              introduced 5 initiatives that he would like the Club to focus on 
              in 2004.   NEW BUSINESS   CSC will join DCYC in expanding the Leukemia Cup Regatta to a two 
              weekend event and host a dinghy regatta on White Rock Lake for the 
              first time. Mark Smith and Red Dog Jones were announced as CSC co-chairs 
              of this event. A request for help from the membership in the areas 
              of sponsorship, entertainment, and social events was put to the 
              membership.   CSC will host the US Snipe Masters Regatta on October 7-9, 2004. 
              A total of 30-50 boats are expected to attend this 6 race series 
              which will receive national attention.   Social events like the First Friday series of parties will continue 
              in 2004. Commodore Wade asked the membership to continue to make 
              use of the facilities and participate in these events.   A long term plan for Club infrastructure improvements was suggested. 
              Maintenance of Club docks will utilize a new materials such as galvanized 
              steel and plastic as a test bed for additional projects to come. 
              Results will be shared with the membership as a whole and comments 
              will be requested. Assuming the results are positive these technologies 
              will be applied to the entire facility including those areas renovated 
              in the last 3-5 years. Commodore Wade expressed his hope that the membership will continue 
              to be involved in the day to day business of the Club.   In closing Commodore Wade acknowledged that the bylaw changes have 
              been sensitive issues but asked that the membership keep in mind 
              that the intent is to make the Club a better place.    AWARDS Recipients of the following awards were announced.Old Salt's trophy: Harold Westerheim
 Norm Watkins award: Sandy Dennison

                |  |  |  |  |  |  |  Club membership grows solidly but slowly. Regular membership increased 
              by 5 members during each of the past two years. The number of associate 
              members increased by 15 in 2002, and declined by 5 in 2003. The above numbers are net. The total number of regular plus associate 
              members went up by 20 in 2002, and was constant during 2003. However, 
              people come and people go. During 2003, 63 new members were added 
              to the Club roles, so that 63 members left (moved away, got sick, 
              got lazy and took up golf, or whatever.) During 2002, 66 new members 
              were added, so that 46 went away. Honorary membership declined from 
              10 to 8 during 2003. One member passed away, while another requested 
              that they receive no more communication from the Club. Friends of the Club increased from 4 to 10 during the past two 
              years. The additions were members of other sailing clubs who generously 
              contribute to Corinthian Sailing Club in various ways. Respectfully submitted,Dudley Bayne
