Civic Association Annual Meeting 

All Civic Association members are invited to our annual meeting on Monday, November 11, 7:00 p.m., in the Lodge Auditorium. Our keynote speaker will be Bob Stevenson, who will speak about the Chesapeake Bay’s surviving lighthouses and tell stories about the perils of being a keeper on the Bay. 

After retiring, Bob answered a call for volunteers to help preserve the Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse, a National Historic Landmark. He has been leading tours aboard the lighthouse since 2007, and he has served on the Board of Directors of the Chesapeake Chapter of the United States Lighthouse Society as the Education Coordinator. Bob will be joined by his son Adam, who has sailed the bay since childhood and has developed an enthusiasm for the history and importance of America’s lighthouses. 

Our primary order of business that evening will be the election of members on the CAHHH board of directors whose terms expire at the end of this calendar year. In the October Harbour Lights, we included the slate of candidates proposed by our Nominating Committee, and Civic Association members were invited to nominate other candidates by October 8. Having received no additional nominations, we will accept by acclamation the slate as proposed: 

• President: George Merchant 

• Vice President: Julie Weatherly

• Secretary: Ann Marie Kelly

• Treasurer: Michael Alin 

We hope to see you on November 11.
