Welcome aboard! Watch your step!

Kudos to Andy “Gilligan” McNab and Mike West for getting our web site up and running!

So yacht and polo fans, this site is where you come to catch all the latest news regarding the club. It will be updated monthly from September to April. More importantly, it will be updated as needed anytime so check back often for updates. Or not.

Your Board of Directors has accomplished a lot in the three months we have been in existence. Yacht and baseball caps for the lucky lifetime 50 Chartered Members, cheap hats for the 18 (and growing) Associate Members, a great trip to Santa Anita, Wednesdays Meet, Greet and Drink parties and the formation of the “We Are All Going To Be Rich, Or Not” fund. Upcoming we have the $2,000 par 3 Anchor Golf Tournament and BBQ on March 14th, the Firebirds Pints and Pucks hockey game on March 15th and the Credence Clearwater concert at Aqua Caliente on March 22nd.

And if that’s not enough, two trips to the South Point Casino in Vegas, the official casino of the TP/TP Yacht & Polo Club as follows:

  • March 16-18 — Join Thurston & Lovey and the Vice-Admiral and Secretary on this short trip to celebrate our Secretary’s birthday.
  • May 3-6 — $200,000 BINGO EXTRAVAGANZA where the Commodore won $2,000.

If you are interested in any of the above (designated) events, please contact me for details or check back on this site soon.

A lot has been covered in our first rollout of this website. More will be added in the in the days to come (Mission Statement, Designated Events, Franchise Opportunities, 2026 and a whole lot more.
