________________________________
Update for 2021: The new
year is just about on us. Our first meeting will be Sunday
February 21st at noon. Woody was able to book Jonathon Tenet as
our speaker. You may remember he was harbor pilot on the Golden
Ray. We hope a lot of you will attend. Brunswick Country Club
has had a lot of activity in the past few months and their
cleanliness and social distancing policies have prevented any
COVID cases. You will enjoy great fellowship in a safe
environment. We look forward to seeing for lunch that day.
Scholarship Program:
We are resuming our scholarship program and very excited about
it we have done pretty well at fund raising, but could use a
little more support. We would love to have your support. Jim
Bruce has set up a new payment app on our website at GIMOAA.org.
You can donate thru that app as well as pay your dues. Check it
out. It’s easy to use .
Need A Volunteer:
Our team needs someone to help out with the administrative
details of our scholarship program. It requires a minimal
amount of time, and I believe you will find it a rewarding
experience. Call Dick James at 703-975-3632 and I’ll fill you
in on some of the details. We look forward to having you
onboard.
