Pancake Breakfast & Opening Social Reflection
Fyr Bal Tradition Continues: Pancakes for Sailing Scholarships
We had another successful Fyr Bal Pancake Breakfast honoring Aaron R. Moore and raising money for sailing scholarships! It was great to have new volunteers flipping pancakes and clearing and setting tables. Seasoned volunteers made quick work of slicing 48 lbs of strawberries, grilling 60 lbs of Marchant’s sausages, and making over 650 pancakes and greeting 275 hungry diners. With the help of all of your smiling faces we raised $3200 that will cover sailing lessons for Door County’s local children. We’re already looking forward to Fyr Bal 2027! -Jane Reyerson Ford & Lisa Forsman

A Meaningful Start to the Season
On June 13th, we gathered to bless our fleet for the summer season, remembered those that had passed away in the last year, reconnected with old friends, and made new ones. Thank you to all those that came out and especially to our coordinator Kristy Hoag, our volunteers Duska Pearson, Laura O’Rourke, Fran Morof, Joan Anderson, Stefan Anderson, Lisa Gifford, Marguerite Roza, Will and Calvin Hoag, Max Travnicek, Lisa Olson, Sarah Olson, Rob Cowles, Julie Watkins and Pete Moegenburg.
We remembered: John Guenther, George P. Kraemer II, Melissa Mielke, Jean Reynolds, Joan Schaup, Maureen Schmidt and Dr. Anne Wyman.
Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate these special EYC traditions. From pancakes on the dock to evenings spent together by the water, it’s the people and memories made here that continue to make EYC such a special place. We’re grateful for a wonderful start to the season and look forward to many more summer days together at the club.
