The
Commodore’s Special Award was started by Bob Slocum to recognize help that
he received in the years of low water at the yacht club.
This award is an adjunct to the Bail Bond Trophy, to
be awarded by the commodore for special service to the club. It is not
necessarily awarded every year, and is intended to be reserved for special
occasions where an individual or group of individuals performs in an
outstanding fashion.
Note: Please let us know if you
can help with filling in the blank years regarding why recipients were
chosen.
