Membership Regatta Standings
Tuesday September 13, 2011 04:40PM
onAs Membership Chair I organized a membership recruitment “regatta” or “campaign” for 2011, the monthly results of which have been displayed in the Log. Each time a member sponsored an applicant, their names were to be placed in a hat for a drawing at year end, with no limit upon entries. Prizes for sponsors drawn from the hat will be gift certificates to West Marine in the amounts of $500, $300, and $200. Under the NOR, any single sponsor can win more than one prize, or all of them.
As the year comes to an end, and we round the last marks into the months of October and November, the race is hotly contested. The leaders with two sponsorships are Carrie Russell, George Burke and myself (but as the Event Organizer, I am disqualified). Tied in a fifteen way tie for Third, each with one sponsorship are Ric Bauer, Chris Rouzie, Mike Dale, Rick Klein, Tony Sakowski, David & Julia Lee, Carl & Diane Simon, Bill & Clair Prior, Sydna Street, George Burke, Martin Jubenville, Miles Booth, Doug Stinchcum, Alex Alvis, and Mayo Tabb.
There will be Membership Meetings the second weeks of October and November. Anyone sponsoring additional new members approved by the Committee and by the Board for Publication by the November Board Meeting will be scored in the Regatta.
Contesting Sponsors need to get their new members’ applications and sponsor letters in before the October or November Membership Meetings to improve their chances.
