Westmoreland Yachting Association
2012 Change of Watch
The 2012 Change of Watch, held at the Lighthouse Restaurant, is now in the history books. 35 members attended; men in their ties and the ladies wearing their best. It was a nice dress up affair with a sit down dinner and an experienced DJ giving us the music we wanted. After the meal and before the dancing, we thanked the past year's bridge and welcomed the new group that will do our bidding for 2013. Commodore Bolin also presented awards and certificates to a few of our members; whose achievements are summarized below.
To Buzz and Doris for leading our effort at winning the Grand Prize at the 2011 Stratford Hall Coaching Days
To Linda Weaver for her creative composing of our WYA song
To MJ Smith and Carey Bolin, the Martha Stewart Award for a grand job staging our year's events
To Patty Kasold a certificate of appreciation for attending PRYCA meetings and keeping us informed of PRYCA happenings
To Kathy Carroll, the Spirit Award for generously preparing the best drinks we've ever had
To Bob Blunt for winning the Wet T-shirt contest at Cobb Island Summer Kick Off
To Diane Burton for winning the Bead Contest at the Cobb Island summer Kick Off
To Mike and Vicki Enos for winning 3rd place in the Best Decorated Boat Contest at the Summer Kick Off
Linda, Patty, and Kathy were unable to attend so we'll give them their Award or Certificate next time we see them!
The party had to finally end and over 90% of the attendees were still there and dancing when we had to shut the event down.
MJ and Carey were the first to test the place settings that they deserved as they staged the event. Thanks to Katherine Smith who contributed her decorating skills and efforts to create a wondrous setting.
And Joe Head kept the music coming as we enjoyed.
Lori's getting wound up now.
The Lighthouse and staff did a wonderful job and could not have been more gracious. Our thanks, again.
