Newest Lifetime Members
by Anne Olden
Chet and Lillian Tigard were honored as Lifetime Members at the January meeting. Mary Z had a very nice plaque made, and Christy Long, Commodore, presented it to them. Chet and Lillian have been members since 1978. Chet told us that when they married, Lillian asked that they go on adventures together, and canoeing has brought them a world of adventures and good friends. They realized early in their paddling career that lessons were important. They learned to paddle from good instructors, then became instructors themselves. They lead trips and became officers. Lillian chaired Rendezvous, with Chet helping on the Site Committee and in numerous other ways. They met Bob Foote, and solo canoed the Grand Canyon twice on Bob’s trips. At the other extreme, Lillian became a champion freestyle paddler. The club continues to benefit from their enthusiasm and experience. Congratulations, Chet and Lillian!
