Many people stepped up to help out this year and I'd like to start with the weeknight crews. They came out week after week, all season long, and did a great job:
 
RO's: Rick Humphrey, Tom Shenstone, Paul Brennan, Keri Humber
 
CREWS: Corinne Lusty, Elaine Parker, Elizabeth Qualben, Stan Gap, Max Smith, Liz MacIntyre, Don MacIntyre, Wendy Moseley, Ann Poole, Jamie Donaldson, Tim Hill,  Noreen Stumpf and Carolyn Weckesser, who came to our rescue many times when we were short handed.
 
We have a good time on the committee boat and, let's face it, we wouldn't do it otherwise, but these people also work very hard on your behalf to get the best race possible on a given night. It makes my job so much easier knowing that I have such dedicated and dependable people on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
 
Now, on to weekend races and regattas, some of them commitments we owe other clubs in payment for helping us with our regatta. It takes a LOT of people to cover the season and I'm thrilled to say that this year, for the first time, I had crews lined up well in advance of major weekend events - little to no last minute scrambling. Thank you. THANK YOU!

So that's it for another season. I hope to see you all, as well as some new faces, next year.
