[Board] One Sky Request - Renting out space

[Roy Briscoe]

Hi all,
I talked with Joe Nadeau about this and his read on Article XIV is that we can not rent the space out to OneSky as a fund raiser for them because PYC does not directly benefit from the event. Which was also my read on the article after Dick pointed it out. Next steps: I can contact OneSky and let them know or are there other ideas?

    I think we should definitely support them on a Monday or Thursday
    night as a private event.  I do have one question, however, in that
    I thought it went against the bylaws (Article XIV) to hold "fund
    raising" events at the PYC other than those that are raising funds
    for the PYC.  Maybe Joe Nadeau should be asked to clarify this.

        Board Members,
        

        
        We need to get back to One Sky with an answer if we are
        interested in providing the space for their Gala fund raiser
        event. I've only heard from one person so far, what does the
        rest of the BOD  think about this idea? Nancy has proposed that
        we could offer them a Monday or Thursday night, is that what we
        want to do? If so, would we like a representative from One Sky
        come to the next Board meeting with a proposal?
        

        
        Thank you,

                Dear PYC Board members,
                

                
                The PYC Challengers Cup
                  committee met with the One Sky
                  Challengers Cup committee on Friday January 22, 2015
                  to start discussing the
                  2016 Challengers Cup.
                

                
                One Sky is thinking about doing
                  some fund raising this year
                  to help cover some costs of providing equipment to
                  their clients. Where the
                  Challengers Cup is their big event for the year they
                  are looking into having
                  sponsors for the Cup and a “Gala” cocktail party in
                  the week prior to the Cup
                  where their sponsors and anyone else who wants to
                  purchase tickets can attend.
                

                
                One Sky has asked if they could
                  use PYC for the Gala event
                  for one evening in that week before the Cup race. They
                  are not expecting PYC to
                  help with the sponsorship drive, except maybe to
                  provide the function space.
                  One Sky would like to come to the next board meeting
                  to present their idea and
                  provide us with more information. They are aware they
                  would need to hire a
                  policeman and our capacity limit might be around 130
                  people.
                

                
                The Gala would be in the middle
                  of September, which is not
                  our most busy time and they are aware that the PYC
                  function space is also club
                  house which they would be taking over. They were
                  thinking of having it the Friday
                  or Saturday before the Cup, but we indicated that the
                  club house is generally
                  only used for private functions on Mondays and
                  Thursdays in September.
                

                
                Do you think this is something
                  PYC would be interested in
                  assisting them in?
                

                
                Regards,
                Challengers Cup Committee
