Last night was the HYC awards night and Colton got Most Outstanding Sailor award. In his evaluation, his instructor also recommended him skipping the next class and going straight into Opti Advanced. She bragged about him in her speech saying he is very helpful with the boats down at the club, very excited to sail, always positive, always listening, and a good racer. Apparently, his class (the beginners) raced the other two classes, and he came in 6th, never having raced before. Caroline’s (his instructor) speech about Colton was just the sweetest. Very proud of him.
They also had their swimming awards. Colton and three of his buddies tied for most miles and got a bag of Swedish fish as reward!
Unfortunately, and very unlike me, I did not get many pictures.
