Commander’s Report
D/C Maureen Samuels, JN
I love visiting all the Squadrons in our District. It is a privilege to
get to attend the Changes of Watch. Each Squadron is related
in purpose, but they express themselves differently. Cincinnati
has the tradition of having a princess to reign during the
Change of Watch. Dallas and Cathy’s two grandchildren are
precious princesses.
Hoosier has the best flag officer: Guy Waddy changes the flags
with flair. Dayton’s Change of Watch is always elegant. Bluegrass is a close group but who scheduled the COW on the day
that UK played? Evansville Bend had a lot to celebrate; both
Janice Elwood and Sam Richey got their life member plaques.
Wabash Valley waits until the Snow Birds come back from
Florida. And then there is Louisville, my squadron, where I got
the opportunity to swear in my commander, Faye Kugele.
Cincinnati and Evansville Bend both had afternoon Changes of
Watch and this gives the members who don’t drive at night an
opportunity to come.
I see differences in the traditions of each squadron, but I also
see the similarities. We all love boating, and we all know the importance of education.
Come to the rendezvous at Warsaw; come for the day or the weekend. Bring your boat or come and sit on the banks of the Ohio and
enjoy the company of your fellow boaters.
We will have a weather seminar and learn more about boating and
we will have FUN! If you are interested in taking this seminar on
Saturday, 1600—1800, be sure and indicate it on the reservation
form. The instructors will be Susan Durstock and Kim Fisher. Cost
is just $35.00. Suggested price is $65.00 and has been discounted
for the rendezvous.
See you on the river!
Maureen
