Some Prince George’s County student sailors reached star status during a recent awards ceremony at the Naval Academy in Annapolis.
Honored by the Brendan Sail Training Program for Youth with Learning Differences, Gordon McIntire of Bowie and Stephen Hunt of Greenbelt earned the sailing stars award for their accomplishments in the 2010 program.
McIntire, who participated in the program at the Annapolis school, received the “NoGutsNoGlory” award in the 11-14 age group. The award is named after the sailboat “Nogutsnoglory,” owned by long-time program volunteers. During his award presentation, McIntire was described as someone who loves being on and around the water, and is always mindful of the environment and the needs of his fellow students. Program officials added that he is safety conscious for himself, as well as for others, and is always willing to lend a helping hand.
