[Sonar] Recognition...one more item

[Jim Gresham]

Check with Cappy for names.  Wayzata High School and others have had a great year competing.  There is a great group heading in a week (11/12-11/14) to the Chicago Yacht Club Great Lakes championships.

I was reminded that another item to put in the bio is significant accomplishments.    We have some under 18's that are already making their mark on the sport  (Nate,  Kaitlyn)...and this would be another venue of recognition.

Kathy Kuchera and I would be happy to put the recognition page together.



What would be needed:



- a photo

- A quick bio as follows:  when started,  what boat and skipper/coach, WCSC student?, crew position, notable recent results, favorite sailing moment, what they look forward to next year.

Make sense?

My daughter Bri Dickel was regular crew with the Sonar fleet this season as our 4th (so she was out a lot) on batmobile.  She also did the Sonar team racing and was available for SOTN.  She is 15 with many choices available to her activity-wise.  She started sailing this spring and liked it so much (the sailing, the people, the fleet, etc), she bailed on soccer (something she had done since she was 7...  So that is telling!).   She is planning to return next season and hopefully will get a chance to steer (we tried to setup this season but schedules conflicted).

Nate Olmsted, 9, was also on board a good number of races as well.  I am sure his earlier Sonar exposure has helped him become a very good Opti sailor this season, which in turn has contributed back.

Cheers!
Hans

As long as we're talking about special recognitions,  I would like to also suggest special recognition of the under 18 that participate or skipper within the Sonar fleet.



I still have extra medals from the LOWISA youth regatta which we've given out before but I'd also or alternatively like to suggest that we create a page link from the Sonar site that features the names,  photos and a one line sailing bio.   (I can design and put that together).   I can name the link  "Outstanding Sonar Fleet #5 Youth".    I think we'd be the only fleet that would have this.



We have a number of kids who actively crew,   sometimes in pretty tough conditions  (I'm thinking of Alan's boys in the SOTN Friday and Team Racing regatta) where they could just as easily be on shore with their friends at the mall.    I think this is worth some recognition.
