In memory of Dick Cole (Past Commodore, 2003, who passed away earlier this year) the Cole family is making a contribution to the Club for the oysters this year.  Thanks to their support we are able to keep the cost to $5.00/person.  Dick always supported FBYC racing and social events.  His presence around the oyster table will be missed.
