The weather gods smiled all over us this past Saturday! The weather was perfect, our communication with the sailing community was perfect, the seas were perfect and most of the participants all ran together in groups which made it a very fun day!!

Thank you to everyone who helped make the day the success that it was:

* NJPPC Planning Commitee Volunteers
* NJPPC Members who participated
* Participants who traveled from far away including Mike Fiore and Team Lucky Strike from Florida
* NJ State Police for permitting the event and escorting us
* The card boats who all made it and were a huge hit!
* Doreen from www.lucidideefastboats.com and Tim from www.sharkeymarine.com for sharing the the hundreds of photos that they took
* All of our winners: 1st place Don Cronin / Bob Christie's Perfect Storm
$1000 (donated it to Shore Dreams For Kids!!!)
2nd place Rich Intile / Mike Intile's 38 Donzi
$600
3rd place Dawn Jameson / Mark Jameson's saint of a wife!!
$400

The commeradarie, friendship and jokes being shared at the dinner Saturday night was priceless. This is our 9th year in existance and I cannot tell you how honored I am to be the President of this club. The friendship that is shared among everyone is something that you don't find at all poker runs. Thank you for making NJPPC the club that it is!

You will find over 300 pictures (so far) on the web compliments of Doreen and Tim:

A big thanks for all the hospitality we received. It was worth the long trip from Florida. NJPPC puts on a fantastic poker run. The people, food, and boats were awesome. We can't wait untill next year to do it all again. Hope to see a lot of you on the Key West Poker Run in November and thanks to Sharkey for this pic
