A big thank you goes to Joanne Suffel and her crew for preparing the crane-out lunch. They served approximately 100 people. Preparing food for this number of people requires tremendous planning. The chili was delicious, the weather cooperated, all teams inside and outside were well organized.

Friday the 13th turned out to be a good day. Thanks again to all those who cooked, baked, served and help prepare food for the lunch that helped crane-out go as smoothly as it did.

Thanks from Joanne:
To all the fine young ladies and gentleman who helped make crane-out another huge success; a great big thanks!

All the food prep and kitchen help was fantastic. I could not have done this without all of you and you made it so fun as well. The only thing for next year is that I will make sure we have chili or some other dish for those members who are vegan. This is the first year we didn’t have one and I apologize for not thinking of it.

Also a big thank you to everyone else who worked to actually get all our boats out safe and sound. What a great team effort by all.

Wishing you all a warm and safe winter. See you in the Spring.
