Members of the Month

The Flag and the Board of Directors are pleased to announce that Ian and Marie Blackburn have been named the Members of the Month of August 2013. Marie is the Treasurer of the First Mates and is very active in that role. Many times you have seen her with a bucket full of tickets to sell for various First Mates functions. She is always willing to help with whatever needs to be done. You can find her in the kitchen anytime there is a meal to prepare. Anytime there is outdoor cooking to be done, you will always see Ian right there with a spatula in hand. He walks the island and if he sees something to be done, he just does it without being asked. They both do many things to better the club without looking for recognition or a pat on the back. One example of this is the merry-go-round by the kid’s playground. They took their vacation time on the island to completely redo it, by replacing boards, sanding it completely down and repainting it. If you haven’t seen it yet, take a walk down by the playground and see what an awesome job they did. Welcome Ian and Marie to the Order of The Anchor.
