ATLANTIC ZONE REPORT

Activity Update from CNAG Atlantic.

 

CNAG Atlantic Chapter met August 28th in the WO/Sgt’s Mess Shearwater with 35 members present (the hurricane scare kept some away).  Plans were presented and discussed for the Fall meetings - especially the Mini Reunion scheduled for October.

 

Gerry Young volunteered to lay the wreath for the Battle of Britain on behalf of CNAG September 18th at Sullivans Pond.

 

Following the regular meeting, everyone enjoyed a Steak BBQ and all the trimmings.  Thanks Yvon for organizing this.  We reminisced  and got caught up on various summer events.

 

The 4 October meeting of CNAG Atlantic was in the format of a Mini Reunion held in the Shearwater Aviation Museum. About 55 members enjoyed coffee, tea and muffins at 10a.m. followed by a Memorial Service led by Minnie and Buck Rogers.  The ‘Grog Crew’ of Dave Warner, Gerry Young and ‘Buck’ issued “Up spirits” in true Navy tradition.  Brunch was served about 12:30 with fish chowder, chilli, rolls etc on the menu.  After everyone dined, a regular meeting was held.   Wonderful music from ‘Our Era’ was provided by Jeff Collins (rocky’s son) to conclude a fun day for all who attended.
