Commodore’s Message

I am honored and excited to introduce myself as the new Commodore of our esteemed club. As the first female Commodore in our 66-year history, I am deeply grateful for the trust and support shown to me.

My primary focus during my term as Commodore will be to:

Continue the Fiscal and Structural Stability of the Club: Prioritize financial health and organizational resilience to secure the club’s long-term success.

Preserve and Celebrate our Rich History: Complete the documentation and publication of our rich history while initiating the process of archiving essential club documents for future generations.

Strengthen our partnership with the Seafarer Foundation by ensuring both organizations work collaboratively to achieve our shared mission and goals.

And last, but definitely not least, embracing the Joy of Seafaring by celebrating our passion for cruising the Chesapeake Bay, enjoying camaraderie, and living our best lives on the water and ashore!

In the coming months, we have several exciting events and initiatives planned. I encourage each of you to get involved and share your ideas to help us grow and thrive as a community.

Thank you for your unwavering support. I look forward to working together with members and our partners to make our club the best it can be.

Warm regards,

A. Joyce Price-Jones
