The Auxiliary is a vital, long standing integral part of SBYC. It provides an opportunity for men and women to get involved, make new friends and meet new members. Our objective is to encourage and support the spirit of fellowship among its members through organized yearly programs, run and manage the Ship Store, support the Junior Program and Sand Crabs and to assist the Spray Beach Yacht Club financially. Some of our year long activities include Book Club, Bridge, Bunco, Golf, Mah Jongg, Stitch and Chat and Walking for fitness. Our summer programs often include arts and crafts, games, dinner, outings, movies and special interest events.
Auxiliary Activities
Barnacle Book Club
Join us on five Friday evenings throughout the summer for the Barnacle Book Club. At our meetings, we enjoy delicious desserts, wine and other libations, good company, interesting discussions of (usually) interesting books, lead by (bad-tempered, overworked, grouchy persons) inspirational leaders. Meetings start on June 26. Hope to see you then to enjoy good books, delicious desserts, and each other's company. The Barnacle Book Club also continues during the off-season with meetings held once a month on Tuesday afternoons. Contact Monica Kanopka or Wendy Glavis for the summer sessions and Lorraine Blazewizc for the off-season sessions.

Walking For Fitness Exercise Class
Join us for a low-impact workout using videos by Leslie Sansone. This is a FREE indoor video walking session. Keep your heart rate moving and increase your metabolism with 45 to 60 minutes of in-place walking moves that target your lower body, core, and upper body. You make the session as intense or as easy as you like. We vary the workout by adding resistance bands and light weights: Mixed-Up Mondays, Wednesday Weights, Firming Fridays. All fitness levels are welcome! Wear sneakers and comfortable clothing and bring water and a towel if desired. SBYC Members only please. Contact Mariann Fuca.
Daily 8:00 AM
Mah Jongg
Mah Jongg (also known as Mahjong) is an ancient Chinese game played with tiles. It's a game for beginners to advanced and has become popular with over 35 SBYC women. Many of us will help teach the new player. You only need to own the yearly game card, which can be ordered from the National Mah Jongg League. Many of us own the tiles necessary to play. It is not necessary to buy a game. Come join us every Thursday in the main club house during the season and in the small club house during the off season. If you are new to the group, be sure Nancy Cope gets your email address in order to inform you when the club house is not available for our use, due to prescheduled events.
Thursday 1:00 - 4:00 PM
Golf
Ladies golf is played Wednesday mornings at Atlantis Golf Course in Tuckerton. The ladies play both 9 holes and 18 holes. All levels are invited to join us. We have great fun and always plan to do lunch after our rounds. This year we are starting on Wed., May 13th. Contact Sherry Draper.
