I just want to thank everyone for making this such a great event. Without running the risk of forgetting people, let me just list the areas of help:
Roger had a committee boat full of people who had never seen a sailboat race before. He had a training session Friday evening for all involved. Bobby McCullough cooked some great burgers for everyone.
Saturday we had some fantastic food. A number of new members did jobs so far in excess of anything we'd ask, it was just really so wonderful.
Saturday evening, Jacob from Rotiers catered the food. No, he didn't make Rotiers classic food, he added his own twists to the items. There was not much left over! A number of people brought pastry to share. Wow!
Ken Gum brought some homemade beer. All I can say is: I never imagined Ken could make such great beer.
Sunday, Kevin and Vicki Baker came up from Lewisburg to make us some breakfast. Kevin's smoked sausage was fantastic. Thank you so much guys. They got a real bonus as there was a little puppy obviously looking for a home. Kevin and Vicki took him home and will be rewarded with a great dog, no doubt!
And then there were the chase boats. Thanks to everyone who did such a fantastic job helping keep the courses set in most difficult conditions.
I just can't express how wonderful it was to see such a wide group of people participate in this event. This is how friendships and clubs are built! Thank you all so very much!
And thanks to our sponsors! Joe Waters, of Waters sails made us sail bags for trophies. Bob, from the Franklin NAPA store embroidered the logos and stuff for the sail bags. Gregg Merriman and Tiger Marts kicked in some money. They were just all so generous. :)
