Distinguished Volunteers
The MVYC Board of Trustees has voted to award the Mount Vernon Yacht Club's Distinguished Volunteer Award to Bonnie Breneman. Bonnie is a long-time club member and a recent Past Commodore who also held several board positions leading up to her election as Commodore. During Bonnie's tenure in that position, her significant accomplishments included implementing the Marina of the Future project in the wake of Hurricane Isabel, and the planning and implementation of MVYC's 50th Reunion gala. The Marina of the Future project included relocating C and D docks, converting A and B docks to floating docks, and rebuilding Outer W. Bonnie continues to contribute, serving on the MVYC Membership Committee where she keeps the membership records and finances in order and drives the annual membership renewal effort. Bonnie also is MVYC's liaison to the Potomac River Yacht Club Association (PRYCA), participates actively in Power Fleet event planning, and acts as treasurer for the periodic Club-wide cookouts on the point. Bonnie's diligence has contributed greatly to keeping these events in the black. (So consider yourself warned-- don't try to get in without paying!) Please join me in thanking Bonnie for her service to the club.
