Mountain View Yacht Club Rumor - No More gas rebate program

[Gilligan]

I heard a highly credible rumor that MVYC will no longer provide the gas tax rebate program for members and renters. I looked at their accurate info web site TODAY, under services, and found this :

1. Fill out and sign the Gas Tax Rebate form.
2. Give the Gas Tax Rebate form to the MVYC office staff.
3. The office will hold all receipts for your summer gas purchases.
4. At the end of the season the office will submit all your receipts to the State of New Hampshire.
5. Sometime after December you will receive a check for "Road Toll Off Highway"

Well isn’t that interesting. It debunks the rumor I heard, but… But the information on their site is a few years out of date. A few years ago item number 4 changed. This year and the past few years the MVYC office sent the receipts and forms to the boat owner, and the owner then forwarded them to the State. So that MVYC web site statement has NOT been correct for a few years. The club USED to send the forms directly to the State (as is claimed by the MVYC web site) but that system changed, as I said, a few years ago.

But I thought the MVYC web site was the ONLY place for accurate information about the club? So, do you believe the MVYC web site even though that part of the rebate program changed a few years ago? If you use that program you know I am RIGHT and the MVYC web statement is out of date.

And to the current rumor about the demise of the MVYC Gas Rebate Program. Do you believe that they are offering this Rebate Program (like it says on their web site today) or do you believe the rumor I heard that this service will no longer be offered?

I know that Mountain View Yacht Club Board Directors are adamant that forums that allow anonymous posts are not the place for reliable MVYC information. Only the MVYC.BIZ web site has the truth. I’ve demonstrated that this is not always the case. The MVYC alleged April 2005 Open House is an example. I asked about it on the forum because there was NO mention of the event on the MVYC web site. You can see that thread if you want to.

Someone else mentioned that the MVYC slip map on their web site (today) is over a year out of date. The foot bridge shown was torn down and a new one built in a different area.

So, in spite of the current information on the MVYC.biz web site to the contrary, has anyone else heard the rumor that MVYC will no longer provide the Gas Tax Rebate Program for members/renters?

P.S. I heard another rumor. I heard that Alien UFO pilots flying around the Lake do not believe that the MVYC Board of Directors exist.
