Photos of the wildlife around HYC.

In preparations for Easter, I’ve pulled my recipes for our family dinner. This month, I’m sharing my favourite recipe for ham with an awesome ham glaze. Once again, the recipe comes from a terrific Canadian cook - Barbara Mayhew. Her blog “My Island Bistro Kitchen” has a ton of great recipes. I’ve tried different ham glazes. This is by far the best. Enjoy!

In 2017 & 2019 we experienced some dramatic high water levels which lead to our adjustable dock project. At least 2022 gave us some pretty good months – that is until levels dropped precipitously in the Fall leading to boats grounding out getting to/from their slips, plus a challenge at Haulout. But overall it was manageable. So what does 2023 have in store?

A monthly update from HYC’s Commodore.

As we begin the month of March, I am wishing all Highlanders “Sláinte is táinte” meaning “health and wealth”. This month’s recipes are a maple walnut fudge and a one pot chicken tortiglioni dish.

Here are some things that will help you to have a successful launch day.

Beautiful photos of the wildlife around the club.

Recipes from Gayle for a Kit Kat cake perfect for Valentine’s Day and a pulled pork sandwich for the Super Bowl.

As I am compiling this, we’ve just experienced a horrible winter storm. With freezing temperatures, I think of comfort food and specifically a hot bowl of homemade soup. In the Galley this month is my recipe for an easy version of Chicken Noodle Soup.

On November 16th the Bluffers Basin Racing Committee held their Race Awards Night and HYC cleaned up. Taking the podium in every division. Congratulations and well done to all!

A message from HYC’s new Commodore, Steve Masson.

That stretch of extended summer weather we all enjoyed over the weeks after haul out has ended and the colder winter weather is now upon us. Thanks to all the hard work of our club winterizing crews, HYC is ready and prepared for the cold months ahead.

Meet our new Fleet Captain and learn about his goals for the coming year.

Some yummy cookies just in time for the holidays and a delicious copy-cat pear salad.
