Founder’s Day 2012
View more PowerPoint from Potomac River Power Squadron
This is a brief history of Potomac River Power Squadron, a unit of United States Power Squadrons, that I presented at the squadron's 97th Founder's Day & Change of Watch Ceremony.
Potomac River's history is United States Power Squadrons' history. Potomac River is the oldest Power Squadron in continuous operation. Potomac River's early leaders, especially Dr. A.B. Bennett, SN, were significant early leaders of the Power Squadrons movement. (By the way, Power Squadrons" is always expressed as a plural.)
Slideshare.net hosts the presentation. It's on the free account so there is advertising and clutter if you go directly to Slideshare.
If you are like me and I know I am, you enjoy histories. If so, check out the links to these well-written histories:
Northern Virginia Sail and Power Squadron,
Corinthian Yacht Club (Washington, D.C.) A Historical Review.
Northern Virginia is a descendant of Potomac River Squadron, which was itself formed by members of the Corinthian and Capital Yacht Clubs.
Enjoy.
