2004 Oyster Roast / Fall Awards Party
George Devlin Remembrance
The Thistle Fleet #2 Fall Awards party was on Nov 13th at Crescent.
There was well over 30 people there on a clear, cool, November evening.
The fire was warm, the food was fantastic, and the company...well what can be
said but the people make the party. Below are photos just before the
awards and at the bottom of the page is the list of trophy winners and the
meeting agenda. After the meeting we shared stories of George Devlin who
past away recently. To see a Tribute Page for George click

Here are some so-so pictures taken by yours truly. Even from these you
can tell it was a great party!
