It is not an easy task to be a DN Rear Commodore. 
1)  They all have day jobs.
2)  They are continually communicating with sailors at ice sites throughout their
      regions.
3)  They access every weather website in the universe, consult with local weather
     forecasters, and agonize over every snow flake or rain drop.
4)  They maintain hotlines and an email network, as well as posts on the Forum
5)  They put together race committee and scoring teams, never knowing for sure
     when and where these folks will really need to go into action.
6)  They find places for regatta headquarters, set up the arrangements, and then 
     cancel.
7)  They try to prep and race their own boats.
Cool  They're gracious to all.

It's a dirty job, but one that is essential to the DN Class.

You all have our sincere appreciation for your efforts.

Mark: 

Not to mention:

Keeping a gorgeous wife happy and raising a beautiful baby girl... 
Providing a nurture ground for newcomers to the sport, a shop that birthed 10 boats last year, and
Keeping an E-scow program running.


Thanks.
