on Duplicate Dues that
was sent out to some of
the Pine Island crew

the Board has Authorized

Trish and I had a wonderful Time in San
Diego, we could not have done it all if it was
not for the outstanding support we received
from the Crew, as we did not have a local
Host as we typically have.
Trish and I took time to go down and check
things out, This was on our own Dime.
We also tried number new things we have
not done before, one was the Hop-On & Hop
off Trolley tour. Did you know that cost was
$35 each for the Trolley Tour but you paid
only $20 each,. We will try and do more
events like this with the Association Picking
up some of the cost, (That is what your dues
are all about.)
Trish & I also sponsored night at the ball
park, we had some great seats and had great
time even though we had to give away some
tickets.
We are still looking at finding some support
for the Ships Historian for AV7 & AV12.
See you in DC
