Sacramento Wheelmen Banquet - Another Fun Night
By Mary McPoil
January 29, 2010 found many Wheelmen enjoying an evening with good friends and food as well as  recognizing numerous members for their contributions to the club.

The Hilton Arden Way was looking festive with everyone in their finery and fancy table decorations. As usual, there was Sierra Century merchandise for sale and photos posted for the contest and of course, mileage pictures. After cocktail hour and much conversation around the dinner tables, Club President Linda Zeiszler presented a program that recognized many volunteers that make the club successful.

She started the program by thanking the Banquet Committee chaired by Mary McPoil and her outgoing 2009 Executive Board. George Neill presented the riding awards for 2009. The top ten female and male riders were recognized and the coveted saddle was awarded to Mary McPoil as top female rider and Dick Nussbaum as top male rider. Kris and Ralph LeMeur were awarded top mileage for tandem riders. George paid tribute to all 61 ride leaders including series, tours and day rides. 

Linda, then thanked all the behind the scenes people who make the Wheelmen function. The Hugh Anglin Memorial Award was presented to Dick Nussbaum. The Club then expressed it’s gratitude to Scott and Jennifer Pierce for the time and energy they gave to a successful Sierra Century in 2009. Curt Taylor then updated everyone on the 2010 Sierra Century. The program wrapped up with the winners of the photo contests being announced and the 2010 Executive Board introduced. It was a fun filled night. If you didn’t make it this year, we do hope you won’t miss the 2011 banquet next January.
