Hi All!
Well, the Grey Goose finally landed last Sunday! After two postponements we were able to run the Grey Goose and it turned out to be an absolutely beautiful day for sailing: A steady 10 knot wind and 65 degree temperatures. The race lasted over two hours and once again, THISTLE came from the middle of the pack to win, Congratulations THISTLE!
Following the race we had a fantastic cookout thanks to John and Janine Motsko and Barry Hall. It was a great end to a fun season.

With the end of the 2016 racing season I’d like to thank everyone for their participation and give a special THANK YOU to a number of volunteers: Judith Stribling for doing the scoring, Betsy Cottingham and John Womack for taking care of the Small Boat Days, Sue and Bob Gordon for hosting the Gosling cookout, Janine and John Motsko for the Grey Goose cookout, Barry Hall for making a season of after-race cookouts a reality, and new member Leah Creswell for stepping up and hosting one when no one else was available. THANK YOU ALL!

Pete
