Blessing of the Fleet - June 21, 2009
Rev. Peterson led the Blessing of the Fleet ceremony on Father's Day, June 21. He explained the brief service ahead of time to the assembled club members.
The assembled members stayed inside for the service. Summer may be officially here, but someone forgot to tip off mother nature, and it was another cool, rainy day.
Lillian Pansewicz reads a tribute to Tom Cooney during the dedication ceremony of the plaque for deceased Life Members which now hangs on the outside of the clubhouse in the newly renamed "Cooney's Corner".
Rev. Peterson also blessed a cleat with a memorial plaque for Mel Conroy (held by his son), which is now displayed on the display case in the main clubhouse room on the first floor.
