The Lake Mohawk Yacht Club ended 2019 with an Awards Party held at the home of Commodore Joe Fleming and Julie Fleming on December 14^th. A progressive “take or steal” gift giving followed the presentation of awards. As always, a good time was had by all. We thank Joe and Julie for hosting the event.
