Harbor Dedication

June 17, 2022

When school is out for the summer and summer solstice is near, what better place can you be than the GPYC? This year’s In Harbor Rendezvous opened on Friday night with a celebration that marked the opening of the Club’s newly renovated harbor. Commodore Grobbel was joined by members of the Board of Directors, Harbor Committee members, representatives from E. C. Korneffel, and officials from Grosse Pointe Shores. Commodore Grobbel noted the significance of the harbor renovation and thanked the members who, over many years, have contributed their time and energy toward this achievement. At the conclusion of the ceremony, Commodore Grobbel and Vice Commodore Fish toured the harbor by boat, greeting members along the way. Meanwhile, members who remained on the Terrace enjoyed an evening of dining and DJ music. At sunset, an assortment of kids’ inflatable flamingos and other floating toys took over the pool for a Dive-in-Movie night featuring Disney’s film, Encanto. Popcorn, cotton candy, and s’more mix were the bill of fare for Dive-In Movie goers.

Family Fun Activities

The Family Recreation Center was the center of Saturday’s action. Members enjoyed drop-in play for Tennis, Pickleball, Bocce Ball, and Cornhole games. Our racquet sports professionals hosted Pee Wee Tennis Clinics for different age groups. The clinics were well attended and sparked an interest in Tennis among the youngest members of the GPYC community. After a morning full of activities, members enjoyed spending time on their boats or enjoying the pool, Gazebo, and Harborside Grill for the rest of the day.

Father’s Day

June 19, 2022

The annual Father’s Day Brunch was the perfect way to wrap up the In-Harbor Rendezvous weekend. The dads and grandfathers had fun and a lot of laughs celebrating their day. Members enjoyed Alex playing the guitar and singing in the background, creating a memorable experience during brunch. Many guests enjoyed the delicious food prepared by our expert culinary team. The buffet was filled to the brim with eggs, sausage, bacon, and the omelet station, which is always a favorite. The Donut Bar was a hit and satisfied everyone’s sweet tooth! It was a special day celebrating fathers for all they do!
