Selection will be made by on line voting by the membership.

Brief Sailing History:
Thomas Young and his father racing EL FEO during the January 2006 LCYC series.  Thomas, LCYC's top Optimist sailor, joined team FEO last November during LCYC's Wurstfest Regatta.  Thomas, who is 12 years old, has been a regular part of my local crew ever since.  last month I was not able to make the club race due to a scheduling conflict.  Thomas offered to skipper the boat for me with a pick up crew, his Dad and 6 year old sister Sobela (who spent the day below deck napping).
Submitted by Bob Gross, Owner of EL FEO.
