So much windsurfing, so little blogging. REALLY????? 2015 has been a pretty good year so far!
We had a lovely day to eat and drink with BABA friends back in March at the BABA Season Kick-Off Party. Thank you to Ann & Mike for hosting! The Pat Pugh Award (for supreme volunteerism) was awarded to Coby Leyden for his dedication to running our Hatteras trips. Thank you to East of Maui for co-sponsoring the award.
I’d also like to thank all the volunteers who have put time and effort into running our club throughout the year, and to those who step up when asked to help with specific projects:
Dave Iseri, Vice Chair and Sponsorship Coordinator
Ann Jackson, Secretary, membership coordinator and lots of help with Mayo Watersports Fun Fest
Helen Van Gelder, Treasurer
Janice Emerling – for running our Learn to Windsurf Clinic with Ultimate Watersports
Coby Leyden – Hatteras Trip Coordinator extraordinaire
Mike McCormick – for coordinating Mayo Watersports Fun Fest and providing leadership and expertise to our board of directors.
And our Members at Large who serve in many ways:
Bill Anderson
Warren Evans
Fan Pat & Colin Pitts
Maureen & Albert Pritchard
Mark Raginsky
Fred Thomas
We voted on our slate of officers and steering committee members and we welcomed Amber Kasbeer as a new Member at Large.
Thank you to Jeff and Darlene Forte for bringing Something Special to Mayo for our ECC Regatta – a good sized boat is critical to holding a serious race event! And Thank you also to everyone who volunteers to help with tasks large and small during our Hatteras Trips. Coby handles many many details, but he can’t do it all, and having volunteers take on responsibilities during the trips is critical to their continued success.
Mark Storch won drawing for the complimentary ABK clinic – can’t wait to hear about his progress.
No photos were taken, but I can assure you that we had a great spread of food, the weather was wonderful and we had lots of goodies from our generous sponsors.
