Labor Day Cruise to Mystic Seaport

Join us by land or by sea as we enjoy the Labor Day weekend in Mystic Seaport. It’s always a treat to enjoy the grounds of the Seaport after hours! A big thanks to Pete Stump for being our port captain for this year’s adventure.

If you have any questions, join us on Wednesday 8/26 on our club porch for a Cruisers Happy Hour starting at 5pm. The tides are very favorable for mid-day departures/returns.

Yoga is back!

Fellow club member Cheryl Miller will lead a restorative yoga class on Monday evenings from 6:00 to 7:00 PM starting on 9/18 through 10/16. This all-level yoga class will incorporate grounded movement, restorative poses, and pranayama (or breath) exercises, and will conclude with an extended Savasana (relaxation pose).  Participants will have an opportunity to slow down, use props to facilitate longer holds, find stillness, and release tension from the body and mind. 

Bring a yoga mat, a beach towel or blanket, and yoga blocks if you have them.

Tuesday Evening Meditation @NCYC

  •     5:30-6:15 PM

  •     September 5-October 24, 2023

NCYC is inviting members to our new 8 week Meditation Group each Tuesday evening at 5:30 PM beginning September 5, 2023 at the club. 

Caryl Horner is the facilitator & a meditation coach. She is also a member of NCYC. 

This will be a weekly guided group meditation. Chairs will be set up for meditating or you can bring a meditation mat/pillow if you prefer. There is no commitment to attend every week.  Just join us when you can. 

If anyone needs to learn how to meditate, you can arrive early any Tuesday at 5:15 PM, and Caryl will provide individual meditation instruction, so that you can join in the group practice at 5:30 if you wish. 

We will be setting up Zoom for the meditation practice to include those who prefer to meditate with us virtually. More info to follow on the Zoom details. 

Herbal tea will be available after meditation. 

By meditating together we will reduce stress and gain the many proven physical, cognitive and emotional health benefits of meditation. We will also have fun meditating together!
