WOMEN ON THE WATER BY NANCY BERBERIAN
The Women’s Committee of the Chicago Yacht Club continued to provide a full array of activities for the women of the Club throughout the last half of the year. The women were on the water this year and having fun! After completing 12 Friday night Sonar sailing sessions in August, WOW participated in the Inter Committee Challenge and had three Sonar boats in the Chicago Regatta. These robust On the Water activities will continue in 2022. We were equally active on land this Fall. From an evening with the crew of the Maiden Factor, to enjoying wine paired with Chef Larry’s amazing creations at the Harvest Wine Dinner, and to participating in the popular Networking Club Crawl, the ladies enjoyed their time at CYC. The year concluded with the WOW Holiday party. With over 50 guests, the ladies shopped for jewelry from Kendra Scott and made ornaments under the guidance of Sara Proctor. A great time was had by all. The Women’s Committee has begun planning for 2022. The year will kick off celebrating International Women’s Day. We will have new craft activities and an evening with the CYC Pastry Chef, learning baking and decorating tips. Dinner lectures are in the works along with the traditional events. And of course, the WOW Sonar Sailing Series will continue. A special thank you to the Women’s Committee members for all their hard work and great ideas! Please keep reading Dock Lines and the CYC Calendar for future WOW events. All members are welcome and we look forward to seeing you at WOW events throughout the season. Happy Holidays and a healthy, happy New Year! ✶
