Oktoberfest

Lake Ogleton, September 26-27

11 boats participated in the Oktoberfest raft-up in Lake Ogleton:

• Wayne and Joan Savage, Jubilee (Raft Captain)
• George and Lisa Thuman, Wind Dancer
• Jon and Lori Jones, Wind Orchid
• Mario Taisch and Lori Burkhart, with guest Beth, Sea Cara
• Debbie Smith and Mike Vacarro, with Mike's parents Mike and Delores, Resolve
• Gerry and Jeanne Helldorfer, Ragtime
• Mike and Marie Yates, Prego
• Jon and Marilyn Van Tassell, Escapade
• Don and Mary Ann McBride, Coelumar
• Dan and Martha Bliss, Brunelle
• Bev and Mike Davis, with Walt and Sue Dennison, Ayewash

The weather was wet and windy. We formed two rafts and rather than have crews dinghy back and forth, each raft grilled wurst and had dinner.

It was also the first raft-up for newly renamed Wind Dancer and George and Lisa held a renaming ceremony.
