Jerry,

I Hope the recovery is going well still and hopefully you will be using

that IMPBA card this year maybe racing a 12-Hydro at a race or two?

Happy Birthday and like John said many more to come.

Enjoy The Holidays With The Family,

Mark Sholund

Hi Steve,

I believe the picture was from 1969 or1970. It was at the IMPBA Annual Regatta in Buffalo NY. The trophy was given for the largest participation by a club at the regatta. I was president of the WMRBA club from Detroit MI at the time and honored to receive it for the club. Thanks for publishing it.

Cervical Spine surgery is not all that bad in itself. It is all the other things that surface when your getting a bit older. Getting better every day!!! Thanks for asking. Jer
