Welcome
Home John Gage!
Shrewsbury Power Squadron member, John Gage
is completing his 3 yr. around the word sailing trip on his boat,
“DreamCatcher”. This has been a life long dream of John's, which he has made
come true. The squadron got together to welcome him home on May 12th. A few of our larger boats went out to meet him. Other members joined in as passengers.
Squadron members, family and friends met at the Raritan Yacht Club in Perth Amboy where John was there for a brief welcoming get-together.
Among some of the awards presented were an award from Shrewsbury Power Squadron, a Certificate from District 4, and a Certificate of Recognition signed by (then) Acting Governor Codey.
