Sportsperson of the Year Dinner/Dance

Don’t forget, our Sportsperson-of-the-Year Dinner is November 14th at the beautiful Crystal Point Yacht Club in Pt. Pleasant. Individual tickets are $75.00 each and tables of 10 are $600.00, a $150.00 savings. This is a major fundraiser for JCAA. Tickets can be purchased by contacting Dan Miller at 609-641-7821 or by email at blueangray@comcast.net.

Nominations for sportsperson of the year can be sent to me at pturi6@comcast.net or can be nominated on the floor at the October general membership meeting. A short bio of approximately 150 words is required. As of this writing we still do not have a keynote speaker.

This year due to economic conditions it is difficult obtaining donations from the different vendors who have helped us in the past. We are in desperate need of prizes for this year’s dinner. We need prizes in value of at least $25.00 or more. We need door prizes, Chinese auction and silent auction prizes.

Every club and their members patronize different bait and tackle shops up and down the coast. If each club solicited a donation from the shops that their members patronize on a regular basis, I am sure these shops will help us out as many of them have in the past. Jersey Coast doesn’t have the manpower to solicit these shops ourselves. It would be greatly appreciated if your club could solicit these different shops for us and obtain a prize.

In addition to fishing & boating equipment, we do need prizes for the many women who are in attendance at the dinner. Many clubs have a women’s auxiliary. It would help us out a lot if the women solicited prizes from stores they frequent on a regular basis also.

If you obtain a donation, please make arrangements with either myself or someone from Jersey Coast to have these prizes picked up. We need these prizes well in advance of the November 14th dinner.

I can be reached at (609) 660-2126.
