Of course, the best part of MVYC has been meeting the many great Club members. Rick and Lisa have 6 children, 4 of whom were part of the MVYC Dolphins for many seasons. Now that they are grown, it is nice to have Saturday mornings back. (Oops, I mean, we miss cheering on the Dolphins every Saturday…) For those who do not know him, Rick does not take himself too seriously. (But he does take punctuation and spelling seriously. If you catch any errors in the weekly newsletter, please let him know!) |
