Save the date! Our Sportsperson-of-the-Year Dinner is going to be held on Saturday evening on November 8th. Once again, the dinner will be held at the Captain’s Inn located at 304 E Lacey Rd., Forked River, NJ. This is a dinner you don’t want to miss, just ask anyone who has attended over the last three years what they thought of it. It's going to be a great event again this year. This sit-down dinner starts at 5 PM with a cocktail hour. Appetizers will include: bacon wrapped scallops, mini crab cakes, calamari and pigs in the blanket. A cheese and cracker platter along with bruschetta and toast will also be placed at each table. That will be followed by a dinner beginning with a house salad and stuffed shells with vodka sauce. Then you will have your choice of 4 entrees, prime rib, a broiled seafood combo, chicken marsala and pecan salmon. All entrees will come with potatoes and vegetables. Finally, dessert will consist of Tartufo & mini pastries. Coffee, tea and soda are also included. There will be a cash bar.
As always, we will have gifts and silent auctions along with a 50/50. We will have a lot of really nice prizes including some for the ladies. We are requesting that our member clubs and individuals donate something for our raffle and/or our silent auction, or perhaps a bottle for our basket of cheer. To make a donation, please contact Don Marantz at (908) 347-1434. Tickets are $100 per person. John Toth will be handling the ticket sales as well as the seating arrangements this year. John can be reached at tothjohn@verizon.net or at (732) 656-0139.
Nominations for the Sportsperson of the Year will be made at the JCAA’s General Membership Meeting on September 30th. Start now to think of who from your club should be nominated to receive this prestigious award!
