Delhigh's first spring trailer boat rendezvous quickly turned into a

poolside barbeque, thanks to the thoughtfulness and fast thinking of

some of our members at Delhigh.

Due to heavy rain the night before the rendezvous, the boat ramps at

Blue Marsh Lake, where the rendezvous was to take place, were

closed. Therefore, no boats were able to get into the water. Thanks

to Delhigh member, Cindy Kalmar, who arrived at Blue Marsh early

that morning, Delhigh’s Administrative Officer, Lt/C Kathleen Nowroo-

zani, was quickly informed of the situation. Calls were made and

everyone was re-directed to the Nowroozani's home for a poolside

barbeque instead.

Lots of great food, drinks, and a cool dip in the pool was a wonderful

substitution for the Delhigh spring trailer boat rendezvous that never

happened.

Thumbs up Delhigh for coming together once again. Great job as

always.

CORNER

P/C M. Lebeduik,III

Saturday afternoon on our Delhigh Rendezvous in Cape

May County, Wildwood, NJ, a couple of us went with Lt/

C Kathleen Nowroozani to do some boating. After a day

of rafting up with other Delhigh members, anchoring out,

swimming, having lunch and relaxing it was time to return

to Schooner Marina.

As we approached the entrance to our slip, we observed

the USCG conducting VSC boarding exercises to make

sure boaters were in compliance with the state and federal

regulation as well as to make sure all paperwork was in

order. You guessed it, we were chosen as a candidate for

the boarding. The USCG hailed us and asked if we had

ever been boarded. The response was, “Never.” They

asked if Lt/C Kathleen Nowroozani, JN, would mind if

they came along side to board us for a VSC. Lt/C Kath-

leen responded , “You are more than welcome to check

us.” So they came along side, tied up and began the VSC.

Petty Officer K2 Steven Bucker was in charge of the team

aboard a Defender Class Bravo Vessel. SN Patrick G.

McGinnis and the crew from the USCG Station Cape

May, began: “May we see your registration.” “Have you

taken a boating course?” “May we see your certificate and

check your personal flotation devices.” (life jackets), and

went right down the list. They were very polite and cour-

teous during the entire process. Lt/C Kathleen had passed

with flying colors. She had already had a Delhigh VSC

and was issued a decal. Sometimes even having a decal

and being boarded helps reassure that as USPS Vessel

Safety Examiners we are not over looking anything during

a VSC. Little did the USCG know when they stopped her

that she was a Vessel Safety Examiner and that the boat is

always in compliance.

I would like to thank the crew from the USCG Station

Cape May, for helping keep the waterways a safer place

not only for boating but also from a Homeland Security

point of view.

Remember, there is no need to worry about being boarded

by the USCG….. if you’ve had a VSC by one of Del-

high’s excellent Vessel Safety Examiners.

Time again to travel with Nikki and Michael.

Dear friends, Commodore Howard Gasaway, Sr., Fleet Captain Ed “Chip” Hoiler, and Past Commodore

“Fuzzy” Jones introduced me to the Chesapeake Cruisers Association. This is a club that is affordable

and open to all who would like to boat on the Chesapeake. They plan cruises and other events for boat-

ers to enjoy. Yes, I joined.

Being members of the CCA, Nikki and I had the opportunity to go on a luncheon cruise on the Nina’s

Dandy in Alexandria, VA, coordinated by Fleet Captain “Chip” Hoiler. The main purpose of the cruise was

to experience seeing the monuments of Washington, DC from the Potomac River. There were 22 mem-

bers and friends who took time from their busy schedules to enjoy this event..

As we traveled up the Potomac River, seeing the monuments from the water gave a whole new perspec-

tive of what they looked like compared to seeing them on land. The captain did an outstanding job narrat-

ing the entire two and a half hours we were on the water, making us feel like we were part of the era and

construction. The history, from past into the present, made us want to know more about the area, the

monuments, and the individuals who made this all happen.

It is a day trip for most of District 5, and Nikki and I would recommend you consider making the trip. Fleet

From there we went with Chip and Cheryl on their boat “21st Amendment” to National Harbor and Marina

in Washington, DC. It was about a 25 minute ride by water. National Harbor is about a city block and a

half all under a glass roof and side walls, fully air conditioned with waterfalls, streams, shops, offices, ho-

tel accommodations, swimming pool and more. A must see if you’re ever in Washington. We walked

around a while and then stopped for a snack. Then it was time to head back to the dock and return home.

Thank you “Chip” and Cheryl for a great day.

Until our next adventure ………. Nikki & Michael

We Do More Than Just Boating

By Cdr Joseph Stemrich

As the commander of the Delhigh Power Squadron I do more than just go boating. It is one of my favorite past times, but no so much for my wife. So when she asked me for the second year to participate in a mini-triathlon to help raise money for research to find a cure for ALS disease, also called Lou Gehrig’s disease, I reluctantly said yes. We started to train for this 200 meter swim, 12 kilometer bike ride followed by a 2 kilometer run. When we started our training we only knew that we were not in shape so we decided to start by training slowly and work our endurance up. In January I decide to really start thinking about training. I didn’t actually start working on the track until early June when I actually went to the Bethlehem Township Municipal Park to start with one lap around the track, 1.3 miles, twice a week while I carefully monitored my caloric intake. As my re-search proved, there was no reason for me to give up beer because as you may already know, beer is high in carbohy-drates necessary for sustained energy. I then encouraged my wife to join me on the track; after all she was the one drag-ging me to Buffalo, New York, for this “Tri-It-Tri.“ I started to nag her, I mean encourage her, to get out there with me. It was difficult for us to get and stay motivated; it is easier to work out on the couch with the remote control in your hand. Then on June 15

th Cam and I watched on television in utter amazement as Nick Wallenda, that son-of-a-tight rope walker,

walked across Niagara Falls on a three inch tight rope. He said that he hoped to inspire people that they could do any-thing that they set their mind to doing. I was inspired, not to find world peace or to be on the D5 Bridge, I was inspired to complete the (play inspirational music here) train and complete the “Tri-it-Tri-in the–Buff”, yes my friends that’s what it is called. So that day we went to the township park and before you know it I was doing four miles around the track riding our bikes back and forth 5 miles to the park and swimming 300 meters in the Atlantic Ocean between lifeguard stands. (Ok, so the swimming thing I only did once because it was really hard.) Then came the weekend of the big “A Tri in the Buff.” Camilla and I traveled to Buffalo, NY, and stayed in this very cool B&B that was a converted from a church, rectory and convent (insert your favorite joke here) for two nights. On race day I woke up to an egg, granola, yogurt and fruit breakfast. We were running late and got a little lost on the way there so we got to the registration table just minute before it closed. I should have procrastinated just a little longer that morning, but with my number in hand or on my chest, Cam and I made our way to the transition area. For all you non-triathletes, the transition area is where you leave your bike and all your other equipment you need to transition from the swim to the bike to the run. I was lost and confused at this point and the race had not even started, we missed the pre-race meeting and the Elite group was ready to start. This is when I first discovered that this was not just a fund raiser for Cam’s family. (Her brother-in-law, Jack Hains, had passed away in 2010 from ALS (and it is a terrible way to die), and last year his sister was also diagnosed with ALS.) This was a real competitive Triathlon with people competing for Olympic spots in London. There were judges and official looking people with name badges and hats, police controlling traffic and emergency para-medics looking directly at me. I wonder what they thought about this middle age fat guy in spandex. (Just kidding I was not wearing spandex, dream on.) Fifty-five minutes after the real tri-athletes started, they brought Cam’s group up to the line to start. A guy with a mega-phone gave instructions as her group climbed out onto the rocky shores of Lake Erie to the start line. I was very proud of her, she was ready to go and I must say looking pretty toned in her bikini. You buy that right. And away she swam for about 5 meters when she stood up and started to walk. The water was very shallow where we were supposed to swim, but she was off.

Five minutes later my group was set to begin. As we left the rocky beach area I got off to an excellent start and I am proud to say I was out in front, until we got to the starting line where I was forced to wait for everyone else until the horn started the actual race. I started with my now famous dolphin swim, where you keep diving forward again and again and again until you get to the end. After getting out of the water I was able to get out of the transition area in a mere 8 min-utes. Apparently the triathletes competing for Olympic time trials get out in under 30 seconds but I was breathing. So with my hear monitor strapped on and my nifty IPhone app for monitoring my speed and distance and my head set on to listen to my tunes, I entered the bike course only to be immediately stopped by a very official looking guy with a Judges badge on. He looked right at me and said “stop you’re going the wrong way”. I apologized after all it was my first Triathlon. He said as he got out his little book and wrote my number down, you can’t be on the bike course without a helmet on. Again I apologized and said I would go back to get it. He said no need… It’s right there on your handle bars. Continued on Page 7


Now as I somewhat embarrassedly put on my helmet, I noticed he was writing in his book. I couldn’t help but laugh as I

asked him, “ Are you giving me a penalty for not having a helmet on?” And he a-matter-of-factly said, “yes I am.” My only

thought and I said it out loud was “that’s ok, a penalty is not going to make a difference whether or not I come in first or

last.” Now he too stared to laugh as he said “ok, then you won’t mind when I give you a second penalty for having a head

set on,” as he started to tell me how important safety was and why I needed to be aware of the real athletes who, if I col-

lided with one of them could get hurt. So with my head set off and my helmet on I began the (12K) 7.5 mile bike ride. I

had passed Camilla in the transition area but I knew she would catch me on the bike course because she was stronger

than me on the bike. So after I had completed what seemed like 50 miles, Cam caught up to me and passed me. I kept

pushing until I was able to catch up to her and pass her. We leap-frogged back and forth ( a common term used by tri-

athletes like us) until we got to a nice downhill run and I was able to let go of my brakes and fly with wanton abandon

until I came to a turn that was filled with spectators who were cheering for the racers - until I approached. Then their

cheers of enthusiasm changed to shrills of terror as I narrowly missed them while navigating that turn. The judge with the

official badge was nowhere to be seen. I finished the bike portion strong, considering that it was a nice downhill into a

straight away. And I did not fall getting off my bike as my legs turned to Jello. At this point I figured Cam had wiped out

on the turn and I had to continue on. So without looking back I made my way through the transition area where my

daughter, Janell, who had already completed the Tri-It-Tri was enthusiastically rooting me on. I thought she should shut

up - to be that far ahead of me, she must have cheated. As I started the run (walk for me at this point) I saw my bride

enter the transition area and a sense of pride entered my thoughts that would make any manly man swallow his own

vomit. As I continued the final leg, I could see Camilla catching up to me so I decided to slow down to wait for her, after

all, someone had to carry me those final miles.

With less than a mile to go Cam and I were able to finish the “Tri-It-Tri-in the Buff” together, holding hands as we finished

our first triathlon together knowing that we were truly triathletes. Cammy finished last in her group. I was 25 of 36 in my

class and second in my age group (of two). It was great fun and we had a wonderful time raising money or a worthy

cause.

For all of my sick-o-friends the “Buff” was for Buffalo, New York.

FROM THE CROW’S NEST

Cdr Joseph P. Stemrich, Sr., P

By the time you read this, we are just about at the half way point of summer. There are still many

activities going on with the Delhigh Power Squadron. The annual Delhigh event at the Iron Pigs

PPL Pavilion is scheduled for 1 August, 2012. If you didn’t get your tickets by the time you read

this…. better luck next time. Our next meeting will be at Wednesday, 5 Sept 2012 at Holy Trinity

Lutheran Church at 1900. We are having two guest speakers who are water rescue experts. This

is sure to be an interesting meeting, one you don’t want to miss. There won’t be another member-

ship meeting until 14 November 2012; however, you can meet with us on Saturday, 13 October

2012 for a covered dish social at the Lebeduik’s house.

As your Delhigh Commander I have participated in many Delhigh activities so far this summer, in-

cluding the Delhigh Summer Rendezvous which just so happened to coincide with Grandfather

Camp 2012. For more information about Grandfather Camp 2012 attend the next Delhigh event.

Our first Delhigh Spring Trailer Boat Rendezvous got flooded out at Blue Marsh Lake but the flood

waters carried many members to a picnic at the Nowroozani’s. I personally tried to launch my boat

at Beltzville State Park but my efforts were hampered by dead batteries and other mechanical

headaches. I spent that day at Peter’s Marine Service Center. I really enjoyed the July Delhigh

picnic meeting conducted poolside at the Nowroozani’s. You can read more about these past Del-

high activities throughout this issue of Delhighlights but I know it would have been more fun if you

were there. Camilla and I participated in a non-boating event called Try a Tri in the Buff. That’s

right I said in the Buff. To learn more about this fun filled activity to raise money for research to find

a cure for ALS, read my article in this issue of the Delhighlights.

Finally I would like to say, that I miss seeing many of the members or our squadron who partici-

pated so fully in the Delhigh Power Squadron just a few years ago. Some no longer have Delhigh

memberships but many still do. Camilla and I miss you and we hope to see you at some future

Delhigh events so that you can meet many of the fun new members who have joined our organiza-

tion since the last time you were at an event.

From the Crow’s Nest and looking out for Delhigh.

Executive Officer’s Report

July 2012

National Safe Boating Week: The Beltzville Lake Clean Up

was conducted May 19th,, thank you to all who attended and

made the event a success. Vessel safety Examiners Mike

Lebeduik, Dick Garnjost, Keith Knoblach, and Kathy Nowroo-

zani conducted over twenty vessel checks.

Summer Rendezvous: The 2012 event was held in Wild-

wood NJ June 21-24th. Thank you to all that came and

those that helped made this event a success. The Executive

Committee meeting was held on the 21st at the Stemrich’s

Campground. The past Commander dinner was held on Fri-

day June 22nd at the Gondolier recreation center. Our

squadron boating event was held on June 23 departed and

ended at Schooner Island Marina. $136 was made from the

event over all driven primarily from the 50/50 raffle and the

gift raffle held on June 23rd.

Boat, Camping shows and Parades: Nothing new to report.

PR and Marketing: During the 2012 D5 Spring Conference I

attended a session titled “How to Grow Your Squadron

through Effective Marketing.” This session covered topics on

the difference between Marketing, Public relations, and Sell-

ing. Sharing best practices to become more effective as well

as how to leverage what we got was another topic. Just be-

ing good at what we do does not guarantee new members,

leveraging public boating courses, seminars, and vessel

safety checks to promote who we are and why others should

join are critical to future growth.

We also covered how to develop better promotional materials

and learn how to sell without feeling uncomfortable. Tools

were shared on how to create more effective flyers and ad-

vertisements as well as how to sell and serve our mission.

Vessel Safety Check: Over twenty safety checks were

completed at the Beltzville cleanup.

Sea Vester: Sea Vester is doing well and we look forward to

his next visit to our squadron’s events.

BOATING: A TRADITION WITH RULES Pleasure boating has existed since the dawn of civilization. One of the earliest forms of human trans-portation and enjoyment involved jumping on a floating piece of wood and moving it through the water. This activity flourished, improved, and developed its own traditions. Because waterways lacked traffic lights, yield signs, and directional signals, courteous practices developed into regulations to enable vessels to proceed safely through traffic. Unfortunately, fewer than 5% of today’s boaters have ever had instruction in safe vessel operation. And these people who are often operating water vehicles far more lethal than their automobiles. This might explain why so many of them cross our bows from an illegal direction or giving us strange looks when we provide a sound signal indicating how we intend to pass them. These people are not only ignoring safety, but are missing out on an understanding of the rich traditions of the sea. Over the years, I have gathered stories to help others learn the rules of the nautical “road.” One old tale reports that in the early days the steering of vessels was achieved by attaching boards to one side and moving the board laterally in the water. Because people tended to be right handed, the right side of the boat became the steering side and became known as the “steer-board side.” Today it is called the “starboard.” These “steer-boards” could not be moved laterally when a boat was tight against a dock, so the left side was brought to the dock or “port” and became called the “port side.” These practices had implications for safe navigation. With the “steer-board station” on the right side of the vessel, the operator could not see the boats that were approaching on the left. His vision was blocked by sails, crewmen, or piles of cargo. So it became the practice for boats to “give way” to any vessel that was approaching on its right side. This became one of the basic foundations of marine law. Successful pleasure boating involves learning about safe boating practices, laws and traditions. These include outfitting every boat with effective sound producing devices, proper night time navigation lights, life vests, and fire extinguishers. Boaters increase confidence by having their vessels inspected regu-larly by members the United States Power Squadrons. This is a confidential, non-punitive, free service involving a check list of the safety equipment required by the United States Coast Guard. Boaters should also continually seek to increase their boating information and to engage in boating education. Those who have done these things have proven to be safer boaters and have been rewarded with preferential treatment by insurance companies. The oldest boating education organization is the United States Power Squadrons which is about to celebrate it one hundredth anniversary year. Contact them at www.USPS.org or contact your local squadron. As its members remind us:

“Boating is fun…We’ll show you how!”

Ahoy Mates! Now that boating season is well under way

and we’ve all had some great times out on our boats, it’s

time to look back a little and reflect on what we have

learned. If you’re like me, you actually do know a little

about handling your boat and staying safe on the water,

while at the same time, pushing the envelope and explor-

ing outside of familiar surroundings!

Things we know but don’t always pay attention to can

cause us problems if we aren’t careful. Small things like

tides and currents and thunderstorms are easy to predict,

track, and avoid but only if we are paying attention! USPS

has many courses available to help anyone from true be-

ginners to seasoned sailors be safer and have more fun

out on the water!

If you haven’t taken any courses in a while, you may want

to consider taking them again as the Piloting and other

advanced courses have been upgraded to include the

electronics we all depend on.

As always, your input is always welcome. Send any

thoughts or ideas to me at SEO@ Delhigh.org

A full list of our course offerings is available at the USPS

website and we can teach any of them if there is interest

in something other than what we have already scheduled.

In case you haven’t discerned it by now, I have made

some rookie mistakes this season like dragging my an-

chor and getting caught in a storm. All preventable by

doing those things we all know to do, and the one thing

we stress in all the classes we teach, is to be aware of

your surroundings!

Time to get in a little more boating before the season

winds down. Have fun, stay safe, and we’ll see you in one

of our USPS classes this fall!

ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Lt/C Kathleen Nowroozani, JN

It has been a great summer for Delhigh! From the Beltzville Clean-Up and the

Educational Cruise in May all the way through the Summer Rendezvous and

July Poolside Meeting, Delhigh members have been out in force and having

fun. I would like to say Thanks to all of our members who have attended these

and other events, without you we wouldn’t have a squadron!

Year after year we do many of the same events, and we all have our favorites.

The summer rendezvous is a lot of fun every year, certainly one of our favor-

ites. With a different location every summer it is always a new and exciting ex-

perience. I think the favorite for my family is the Educational Cruise. It is not

always easy to coordinate the four of us getting out to Philly on a Wednesday

evening, but it is always worth it! We take the boys out of school early and

start our trip right after lunch with a stop at Dave and Busters! The boys love to

play games in the arcade and turn in their tickets for prizes. This always puts

us all in a great mood and ready for some family boating fun! The cruise on the

Ben Franklin is 2 ½ hours where we eat dinner and the boys always make sure

to go back for dessert! Captain Lucky is happy to chat and let us know how

things work and is very patient and friendly with us all. The sights on the water

in May and the sounds and smells of the boat and the water always get us ex-

cited for the summer of boating ahead of us! Being mostly lake boaters it is

nice to get out and see markers so that the boys can get an idea of what they

mean and why they’re there.

For those of you that have been out on your boats having fun and have missed

our events, remember to check our calendar to find something that appeals to

you. Now that it is just about time to start thinking about winterizing our boats

once again we would love to have you and your family join us for a meeting or

other event in a bit of your spare time.
