[C320-list] C320IA Open positions--WE NEED VOLUNTEERS!

[esquirecatering at rcn.com]

On last night's sail the crew and I spent a lot of time discussing 
officers for the C320 association.  First of all, we concluded that 
the organization is too provincial:  why are all of the officers 
from the United States?  For that matter, why are all of the 
regattas in the United States?

We concluded that a perfect ticket would be Richard Walker as 
Commodore with Annie Bennett as Vice Commodore.  It would 
be just and fitting to have Richard take over the reigns since he 
is the de facto host of this year's regatta.  Annie as Vice 
Commodore would then start planning next year's regatta for 
Sydney (yes, we know that it couldn't be in August).  This 
would be exciting sailing, expand our horizons in geographics 
and in officers outside of the United States, give us all 
something to dream about for a year, and reward Richard 
Walker for his diligent, brilliant, and dedicated work for the 
year.

Let's raise a glass to the idea of my crew and go for 
Commodore Walker and Vice Commodore Annie.

Warmest (actually, hottest) regards,

Adam
