Autumn, with all it's beauty is here, and will be gone in just a few weeks.  With that in mind we tried to plan many opportunities for our members to enjoy the SJRYC while our Michigan weather is still agreeable.

Saturday, October 1st, the 3rd floor of the Club will be beautifully decorated to welcome all the past Commodores in attendance as will as Susan Greco, this year's Commodore and the rest of our 2016 Board of Directors.  The Commodore's  Bash is held each year to honor those who have excepted a role in leadership and have spent many hours stewarding the SJRYC for it's members.  Our staff has planned a terrific menu and will need your reservation ASAP.   After dinner, Slim Gypsy Baggage will entertain both dancers and other music lovers for the evening. Tickets to see the band only will be available for sale at The Keeper's bar beginning at 8pm, Saturday evening.

The St. Joe River Yacht Club Euchre Challenge will start again on October 5th and continue through December every Wednesday night. We have 40 members who have already joined the Challenge and hope to have many more. Several of our leading players had not played euchre before April of this year when we began the competition. There is room on the second floor of the Club for many more challengers, so come join the fun.  Come early and have dinner or a drink, but be in your chair ready to play at 7 pm. We play 7 rounds switching partners every 15 minutes. The weekly trophy is presented at 9 pm to the player with the highest score for the evening. You can invite friends and family to join you for a game, however only members can compete to become the SJRYC Euchre Challenge Champion for 2016.
