News From District One
By Dennis Probst Jr.
NAMBA District One Director
Hello to all from District One. As the 2014
season is fast approaching we are hoping
that mother nature will catch up and realize
that it is supposed to warm up during the
spring. Countless snow storms this past
winter season have had us dreaming for
some good boating days ahead. Living on
the East Coast, most of us are stuck waiting
for the ponds to unfreeze. However, the
harsh weather did not stop our District One
members from having a great time at the
2013 annual awards banquet. It was great to
see a nice turn out even with a record
fifteenth snow storm on the way during the
month of March. We have some pictures of
the good times had by all who attended.
I hope this year we grow a little more in membership. I look forward to a new
season of boating and having fun with good friends. I always get a kick out of
watching the kids run along with us old guys. With everyone’s help, the 2014 season
will be fun and safe at the same time. With that being said, I can not wait to be at the
first race. See you all at the pond…. Now where is that ice melt?
