OCTOBER 2009

October 2009

Hello Scuttlebutt readers ... I have finally finished upgrading my computer system, a long and difficult battle with trons!  At least I'm 99% functional with some issues still remaining. 

What's happening this weekend?  Delta Boat Racing in Isleton -- Yippie!!  Yes, boat racing is returning to the Delta, October 3 & 4.  Please visit the website for more details:  www.deltaboatracing.com.  I will be there taking photos and enjoying the fun!  Hope to see you there too.

I spoke with Tom Trainer, owner of Delta Yacht Sales, today and he was up beat about the boat business.  I was happy to hear some good economic news for a change.  Also, John (JT) Tourtellotte has joined the Delta Yacht Sales team.  JT worked for Marine Max prior to coming to Delta Yacht Sales.

The 62nd Annual Rio Vista Bass Derby & Festival is coming October 9-11.  The is the oldest fishing derby in the west!  Enjoy festivities all weekend including:  live music, carnival, vendors, soapbox derby, arm wrestling competition, lunch & dinner cruises, karaoke contests, arts & crafts, motorcycle and car show, and much more.  Rio Vista Chamber of Commerce, 707-374-2700.  Website: www.bassfestival.com

Eight Bells

We extend our sincere condolences to Ken Scheidegger and family following the sudden passing of his wife, Elvera Moore Scheidegger.  Elvera was the daughter of John Moore, who was the original owner of Moore's Riverboat Restaurant.  Ken Scheidegger is the President and Founder of the Discover The Delta Foundation.  In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been set up at the Discover The Delta Foundation to honor Elvera.  If you wish to contribute, please send to:  Discover The Delta Foundation, 106 W. Brannan Island Road, Isleton, CA  95641.

We also mourn the passing of Tom Stumph who passed suddenly at the end of September.  Tom was a local representative for Hydro Hoist Boat Lifts for many years.  He was a friend and super guy who once rescued me when I was adrift in my boat on the San Joaquin River.  I remember him fondly.
