I sent the following email out 50 recipients at a time to the entire membership. Each batch was a little different, but all had the same gist.

Unfortunately, I've come to learn that beside suspending my gmail account for a day the email was flagged as spam for a bunch of members. Thanks to all who read their spam/junk email and sent me a note to let me know.

Since not everyone got it, here is the email

Hello -

I wanted to take a moment to personally invite each of you the the Catalina 25/250 nationals coming up this June. This year's event will be in Cleveland, Ohio and it will be held right in the middle of Cleveland Race week at Edgwater Yacht Club. The dates will be June 22 through the 25th.

There will be much more information to follow - posted at the association website WWW.catalina25-250.org.

If you are considering attending, will be attending or want to continue to receive further information via email regarding this regatta, please reply to this message indicating so.

Thanks,

Duane Wolff

My company's firewall blocks gmail for security reasons. Others may as well, just an FYI.

Gmail is no less legitimate than any other address, and from what I can tell, they have way better protection from spam both sending and receiving than any of the others out ther. That being said, I put this post up for that very reason.

Hi Duane, as you know this boat is my entry back into sailing after twenty years of raising kids. So I hope it is alright that I just come down for the party and not race? Cheers.

Hey Duane,
I was skiing at Holiday Valley this week and while taking a break in the lodge I ran into a guy with a race week shirt on. I stopped to say Hi and ask what kind of boat he sailed. It turned out he was your Commodore Mike Vining.
I didn't know you had one of my relatives running the show. What a coincidence not only did he mention you right off but he also knew my buddies Ken and Meg Anderson. looks like I'll be getting a crew toghther to race. count on Nin Bimash being there.

Visit www.johnvining.com to see the some restorations.

At the time of your post, Mike Vining was officially Past Commodore!

Glad to hear your coming I've moved your name into the verbally committed column on the mythical spreadsheet I am maintaining.
