In this issue, you will find the latest Sailing List of Pocono Base, so why not drop these people a line, I'm sure that they would love to hear from you.

Rich Holmes is our new Welfare Officer. If anyone is sick, or needs help, no matter what it is, we would appreciate it if you could give him a call at (570) 629-2742. Rich will see to it that the Base is notified and see what we can do to help out--after all isn't that what this organization is all about ?
If a member, or his spouse, should pass on, Pocono Base would be present at the wake and funeral, if the family requested it, to hold a Memorial Service and to help out in any other way we could.
So if this should happen, then please give Rich a call.
