I'm not a big fan of self-promotion, but I wanted to thank Rick Dennis for nominating me for this award.
This award is for a Fleet Member staff or volunteer person who has provided exemplary work on a daily or part time toward the long term maintenance and preservation of a historic naval vessel and/or toward the proper exhibition of that vessel to the general public. Each nomination must be submitted by or endorsed by the manager or director of said vessel.
http://www.hnsa.org/awards.htmI am honored to join the ranks of Tom Bowser and Lesley Waters as previous winners.
Mostly, thanks to all my volunteers who consistently come out time after time over the last 3+ years to work on the Batfish deck.
