THE ADMIRAL'S ACTION WEATHER REPORT

In the Year of our Lord 2006, a decree was handed down at the General Membership Meeting from our most esteemed First Admiral, Boyce White. According to this decree, First Admiral White shared his tales and stories about how every time he tries to plan an extra-curricular activity for Krewe members, he has the almost supernatural ability to have bad weather on the day of his events.

As a result, the Website Committee has created this special page for Mr. White to help guide him in his event planning. While we ourselves can not predict the weather for Mr. White, hopefully the information on this page and God's Blessings will lead him to a successful, good weather filled event some day (in our lifetime).

We salute you Admiral White and Godspeed!!
