More than 60 CC'ers were aboard the Eastern Caribbean Cruise; this is a photo of most of them.
After a very strong Roll Call (more than 200 messages) it was fabulous being able to put faces to names (though far more difficult to do now:o ). One of our members (KateQ22003) designed terrific tropical nametags, while another member (joanne93) donated the supplies and lanyards and printed them. I prepared personalized invitations and delivered them to each member's stateroom. So it was a wonderfully collaborative effort!
We inivited the Hotel Manager, Cruise Director and Food & Beverage Manager to attend. the HotMan, Mark Pells as well as CD Eric Dowis, spoke to the group, welcoming us aboard stressing the value of our commitment and loyalty to HAL, as well as an appreciation for the feedback we regularly provide. Mark also spoke of HALs upcoming additions to the fleet.
Hot hors d'oeuvres and rum punch were served to adults (at a pre-negotiated group fee) and mocktails and cookies were available to our juniour cruisers (at no charge).
I was the contact person for the cocktail party with the ship and am seated in the second row, second from left; Kathy [KateQ22003] is standing (6th person from the right, wearing a white top); Joanne [joanne93] is crouched in the front row, also wearing a white top.
