AOTH XI Thank you!

[roadtripse]

Thanks to everyone who actively participated in putting on a piece of the run this weekend.

I thought it went very well and it was through the efforts of several folks.

First, I want to thank the core of the MWDC, Jerry Eisele and Byron Scholle. Then there is Elizabeth Porter and my wife Jill. And of course, our tow boat captain, Tim Neckel.

Then there were our Sponsors, the DMRS who bought the People’s Choice Awards and Precision Propeller, who had lots of props to try and donated a couple for the Fun Rally Raffle and Auction.

The JRM wait staff and gas dock team are first class citizens and really enjoy having us.

Thanks to all of you who volunteered as pace boats on the Fun Run. Job well done.

Of course, there would be no auction without Tom West. Mike Lipschutz, Jr., our official auction accountant is a big help, together with Elizabeth. Thanks to those of you who donated auction items and those of you who bid high! This is how we truly break even on the run and have seed money for next year.

Finally, thanks to all of you who took the time, got your boats ready, and came out and ran them. It was a great display of the community that I believe is strong here. I truly enjoyed seeing you all and please come back again next year!

Best one yet!

Now, where are the pictures?

Nice job by the Midwest guys for putting this on. We had a blast.

Now come down to the Gorge so you guys can relax, cook out and run those boats some more.

What a fantastic weekend! Thanks to Todd, Jerry, Byron, Elizabeth and everyone else that put in so many hours and hard work to put this event together. It is without a doubt the best event of the year.

Thanks to Jim, Russ, Bill, Elizabeth/Jerry, Stan for the rides for me and my crew. We all had a wonderful time. I intend to have a working boat next year for sure so I can return the favor!

Bill, Andrew is still grinning from getting to drive your boat! He said to tell you how much he enjoyed it and sends his thanks.

Stan, Bill, and Russ, thanks for showing Andrew and Lisa such a great time!

Aaron, LOVE that video, thanks!

Extra special Thank you to Todd and Jill for our ride to the Falls on Thursday. It was a beautiful thing and I'll never be able to thank you enough.

What a great way to get the season started! Can't wait for next year!
