SJRYC FLEET 2016

Louie Tremblay

Fleet Vice Commodore

Well here we are the end of October and we just officially closed the SJRYC Racing Fleet 2016 Season at the Cups and Flags Banquet on Saturday October 22, 2016.

The morning of the Banquet, the Annual “Foul Weather Open” was held at Pipestone Creek Golf Course in Eau Claire Michigan. There was quite a crowd for the 4 person scramble with Tee off for 18 holes at 10:30 AM. The weather was a little cool but the sun was bright the sky and course were beautiful with all of the colors of fall! A great time was had by all.

The overall winner was Stuart Boekeloo. Katy Powers received a bottle of wine for the longest drive while Eric Mallen and our Commodore Susan Greco each received a bottle of wine for the Men’s and Women’s closet ball to the hole.

The Banquet began at 6:00PM with Cocktails and the annual Trivia questions put together by our Fleet Captain and Chief Race Officer, Jim Schrager and Ken Zimmerman. It is something I look forward to at the Banquet as it is always a challenge and great fun.

A fine dinner put together for us by the SJRYC Staff of Lasagna, Green Beans, Salad and Bread and was enjoyed by everyone! The nice surprise was the Dessert made by Linda Mitchell of Little Beauty III! A Sailboat cake complete with Blue Water and White Puffy clouds! Delicious!

After dinner the awards were presented by Jim Schrager and Ken Zimmerman announcing the Section Winners for the JaM and Spinn Spring and Summer Series, Off Shore Series and JaM and Spinn Boat of the Year. Gifts were also given out to the Race Committee thanking them for all of their hard work and dedication throughout the year as well as the Fleet Captain. They are very much appreciated.   

To top the evening off for us the Cubbies won!! They are on their way to the Series against the Cleveland Indians!!!! Go Cubbies! Go Cubbies! Go Cubbies!
