National Yacht Club Celebrate 150th Annual Awards Held Online
National Yacht Club Celebrate 150th Annual Awards Held Online
Thanks to modern technology and the can-do spirit of the Club's volunteers and staff, the NYC held its Awards ceremony online.
Commodore Martin McCarthy told Afloat "We had a lot to reflect on and celebrate â it being our 150th year and Covid 19 year â a year where survival was winning. We thank every winner as they all joined in and shared their thoughts and insights with fellow members. It was inspiring".
Dun Laoghaire Rathdownâs first Citizen, Cathaoirleach Una Power joined the NYC for the online event. Among the items she addressed was the year ahead and she said: âI encourage you to keep the Junior Training going as best you can within the Regulations. Also, I know you have a strong Inclusion programme and I would urge you also to keep a focus on it this year. We hope the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta and other events can proceed during the summer and that all sectors can get on the water and lay the foundation stones for a fully normal season with international events in 2021. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the winners tonight â and also you, the members of the National Yacht Club, for your contribution to sailing and well being of citizens and the Borough of Dun Laoghaire Rathdownâ
The Awards process was run by Sailing Sec. Alan Balfe and his team and every club member were entitled to nominate fellow members, which led to the final selection of the winners:
