OSCA October Updates!
Ahoy OSCA Fleet!
Well our sailing season is coming to a
close. I hope you've had a great time this year sailing with family and
friends! It has been an exciting year for OSCA. We have had some great times
and our events have been well attended. Thank you for all your support of this
great organization!
We concluded our on water events last
weekend at the Ida Lewis Yacht Club. Saturday made for a great sail down to
Newport with 20+ knots of wind out of the northeast. We had a great gathering
for dinner at the ever popular Red Parrott. After dinner a few gathered for
night caps and watched a great pitching dual between our Red Sox and the
Tigers. The score wasn't what we were hoping for but what can you do. Sunday
morning we were treated to a great home made breakfast of pancakes, eggs and
english muffins. Yummy! Our pizza party was relocated because the ILYC could
not pick up the Patriots game. We watched the first half from The Deck and the
second frm O'Briens Pub. Dinner at the pub was good. During half time we held
our Membership Meeting. The finances were reviewed (thanks Kevin) and we are in
good shape. The next item was a vote on the 2014 Officers. Nominated and
accepted were:
Commodore - Jill Clement
Vice Commodore - Lee Rabbitt
Rear Commodore - Bruce Fraunfelter
Fleet Captain - John Greenwood
Secretary - Deb Chirnside
Treasurer - Kevin Rabbitt
Web Master - Bet Stickney
After the meeting we enjoyed watching
the last minute comeback by the Patriots to beat the Saints. Later that night
the Red Sox had some last minute herotics by beating the Tigers in the nineth.
What a weekend! I want to give a big THANK YOU to Jill Clement for organizing
this event!
