A few have responded or I have talked with about the idea of bringing
Shepstones in for a sailing seminar;
Frank & CJ, Tom B, Ernest, John S, Chuck & Cheryl, Ernest, Marty, JR &
Becca, Dave.
I will be happy to contact Steve and Melissa about the Idea without
committing to anything.
Steve has some business in Milwaukee and last time he coordinated a trip to
WYC with his business to help keep our costs down.
After the banquet If it sounds like we are in agreement we can work on the
some of the details and a general timeframe.
As soon as we get the 2006 schedule we can get more specific with a couple
of date options that work around the WYC spring events.
