2015 TRORA Club Awards Announced


Commodore Brian Williams

Three Rivers Outboard Racing Association held its 2015 banquet at the race shop of Jesse, Tara and Jace Ward on Saturday, November 14, 2015. Commodore Brian Williams reviewed the good and opportunities from 2015, and announced plans for 2016, including the John Read Memorial on May 28-29 in Franklin, PA and the return of racing to Kittanning, PA August 19-21 which includes a day of testing.

The club also enjoyed some fun with a raffle fundraiser and closed the formal events with the popular crowd-favorite "Night at the Races" - by showing Kyōtei "Boat Race" videos from Japan on the 10' screen in the race shop.

The annual club racing awards were also announced:

Karissa Mitchell - TRORA 2015 Rookie of the Year

First year racer Karissa Mitchell was awarded 2015 Rookie of the Year after completing a near-sweep of J races at Franklin and finishing as the top point-earning J hydro & J runabout for region 6.

Co-winners Doug Follett and Dave Deck shared honors as 2015 Sportsmen of the Year for their efforts in promoting and sharing outboard racing. Both gentlemen are as fine a racer and friend to be found anywhere!
