FIRST MATES FASHION SHOW AND LUNCHEON
(by Ruth Putnam)  

Thirty three first mates attended the Marco Bay Yacht Club fashion show and luncheon at the Marco Island Yacht Club.  After dining on delicious salads and sandwiches, five first mates, modeled clothing from the CASUAL CONNECTION located in Naples.  The models were, Denise Rising, Shirley Southard, Ruth Putnam, Susan Cook and Phyllis Ostrow.  Each model wore 3 different outfits, one casual, one resort casual and one dressy.   Carol McDonald, owner of CASUAL CONNECTION, did a great job narrating and organizing clothing for the models.   Thanks girls for doing a great job!   A special “thank you” to Vicki Herrin for sponsoring the luncheon and fashion show at the beautiful Marco Island Yacht Club.
