Club Chatter

We had a successful, fun, productive summer thanks to our incredible staff: Molly, Kim, Ned, Nancy, Donna, Ehmet, Askhat, Amber, Adilet, Arnur. A special Thank you to Bill and Jan Hoffman for their amazing contributions throughout the season. The team not only worked together but they all did it with enthusiasm and genuine love of our wonderful club.

I also wanted to thank the board and membership for welcoming them with open arms. It’s amazing to me what true respect and appreciation on both sides can […]

A couple of weeks ago in Tidings we heralded the opening of the summer Club season with, what was meant to be, a gentle reminder of a few policies. Our intention was twofold: to overcome members’ confusion and to help Roe by stating the Board support of policies we were asking her to implement.

We have received feedback from our members that our tone was a bit draconian. We wish to apologize for giving that impression; our mission is to ensure all who participate in activities, […]

The Auction runs online the full month of May, similar to our virtual auction during COVID.  100% of the auction proceeds go to the Repair Fund.

Work is underway now […]

As many of you are aware, the January back-to-back storms in Maine have taken a major toll on coastal properties. The Club, unfortunately, has not escaped unscathed.

As reported a year ago, in the January 29, 2023 Tidings Newsletter, “The septic system leach field is reaching its final days and needs to be relocated from its current precarious location, as the water encroaches during severe storms”. As evidenced in the accompanying photos and video, this prediction has come to pass. The Board plans […]

Happy New Year, Club Members!

All Summers must come to an end! To our members ~

Thank you from the Board, General Manager Roe, and the entire staff for a successful season. Even with the challenges of weather and staff turnover, members were cheerful and understanding. This contributed much to the Board’s mission to provide a place of relaxation and social engagement from a beautiful vantage point. This will be the final weekly Tidings for the 2023 summer season but look for the occasional Tidings wishing you all well and keeping […]

The beach was aglow for a beautiful Small Point wedding last Saturday, September 9th.

Congratulations to Nick Warner (son of Club members Lisa Turner and Brad Warner) and Haley Oleynik, who began their married life by exchanging vows from the Club’s wedding lawn overlooking Big Beach.

The SPC Board wishes to remind members that they may sponsor non-members who wish to use the Club for their wedding venue.
