Changes to the by-law Section 4 covering Boatshed and Outside Storage
The General Committee has approved changes to the by-law Section 4 covering Boatshed and Outside Storage. The changes relate to:
– Use of the Sailor App instead of cards to sign on and off for races, which feeds in to the storage points calculation
– SUP storage allocation process
– Ability for a member to store one SUP within that members allocated boat storage spot
– Storage of A-class catamaran beach wheels on the boat unless used for ground level storage, and removal of rudders from A-class in their storage spots when practical.
– Approval required for storage of a boat on the floor in the general area, for a maximum of one week
– Potential penalties in the event of a breach of any storage by-law will include a 5 point storage penalty, or removal of the offending boat/equipment to the outside storage area pending resolution
– Other minor changes

Duty and Sailor App 2022/23
Attached is a copy of the Duty Roster up to the end of December 2022. Please check the roster and make a note of the days which you have been rostered on.
If you are unable to attend your rostered day, then it is your responsibility to arrange a swap, and notify the following people. The earlier the swap can be arranged, the better.
- Your Class Rep
- Duty Roster Manager – Paul Stamp – pdstamp84@tpg.com.au
- Club Manager – Amanda – manager@elwoodsc.com
You can use the Sailor App to see all members who have been rostered on. This is located within the ‘Member’s Only – Duty Roster’ section of the Sailor App.
You also have the ability to contact a member via this section to help with arranging a duty swap.
Sailor App
We will once again be using the Sailor App to manage the racing operations of the club. This includes, the Sign On and Sign Off procedure. It will be the same as in previous years.
For our new members, then please read the attached document for how to setup and register the Sailor App on your phone. You will need to do this before you can Sign On for your first race.
If you have any trouble or questions with the Sailor App, then please let Paul (pdstamp84@tpg.com.au) know.

AGM Notice Correction The AGM meeting notice issued on Aug 18 incorrectly stated that junior members are eligible to vote at the meeting. This should have stated that Student Members (that is full-time students paying for Student Membership) are eligible to vote, not juniors.
AGM 2022
Notice of Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting of Elwood Sailing Club Inc. will be held at the clubhouse on Friday September 2, from 7.00 – 9:00 pm.
Please note the change in location: previous advise was that the meeting would be held online as a zoom meeting only, but we have decided to hold the meeting at the clubhouse. This will allow better interaction between members, and allow us to run more easily the secret ballot which will be required due to the number of members nominating for the General Committee.
This Notice contains information on the meeting and what you need to do if you wish to attend or nominate a proxy, or nominate for the General Committee.
AGM Attendance and Proxy Form
To attend and vote at the AGM you must be a current financial member. Senior, Family Senior, Family Partner, Life, and Junior members are entitled to vote at the meeting; Associate Members are not.
If you do not plan to attend the meeting and are entitled to vote you may appoint another member as your proxy using an AGM Proxy Form (click for link). Please email your proxy to secretary@elwoodsc.com , or hand or send by mail to the manager.
