Being a Sponsor means caring for Midshipmen, and many times it also means unexpectedly developing lifelong relationships with them. Sometimes it even extends to caring for Midshipmen families, helping them acclimate to the new world of “the military” or helping them through difficult times with their Midshipman. What about Sponsors caring for Sponsors? We’ve never experienced that to any notable degree, but we want to emphatically express our concern, our support and our commitment to the legacy of Wendi Winters and the Sponsorship legacy she left behind. If there were ever a Sponsor who deserves to be memorialized at The US Naval Academy, she is the one. A statue, a monument, a stained glass window, a plaque in the chapel, a Citation of Honor in Memorial Hall for courage, valor, bravery, patriotism and life-sacrificing protection of fellow American citizens. Without having ever taken a military oath to defend the country or the Constitution, Wendi put herself, on a moment’s notice, without any training, oath or obligation, dead center in harm’s way and took a bullet out of shear love for America and Americans. That, in itself, deserves to be memorialized and honored as part of the leadership, inspiration, values, and patriotism that The United States Naval Academy inspires in its students and in all those associated with it. Wendi, you are our silent Sponsor Hero. We dedicate this simple and small issue of our newsletter to you in your honor, and we lovingly and devotedly will take care of your sponsor son who has been been received into our hearts and home forever. Your light is a beacon for us all, and it will never go out

The Annapolis Cup: The 2019 Annual Croquet Match
St. John’s College vs. The United States Naval Academy

ALREADY A SOLD-OUT PERFORMANCE

A cherished and revered annual event since 1982, the students of St. John’s College challenge the 28th Company of The United States Naval Academy to an incredibly unique, critically acclaimed, fun-loving, ostentatiously fashionable and competitive croquet match on the Great Lawn of St. John’s College tomorrow, April 27th. The croquet match is a historical tradition that was conceived in the hearts of the students of both schools that is meant to build and reinforce collegiate bonds of friendship and goodwill between the two unique and exceptional schools. Proceeds are raised through ticket sales, and all proceeds cover not only the cost of the event and supporting student scholarships, but they also benefit the following organizations:
Light House, a homeless prevention support center
Centro de Ayuda/Center of Help
Stanton Community Center
Boys & Girls Club of Annapolis
Chesapeake Alliance
