Annie Dike / Author-Preneur

Have Wind Will Travel

 

 

I was a lawyer until I quit. Six years in the practice taught me two very important things — 1) I love to write (while it was motions, briefs, and arguments then, I still knew I had uncovered my passion in the written word), but 2) I don’t like to do it in an office. Something told me I needed to get away, to travel, to sail, to live a different day every day and write about all of it. I now write full-time and spend the majority of my days cruising our 35-foot Niagara sailboat around Florida’s west coast, the ongoing adventures of which I chronicle on my sailing blog, www.havewindwilltravel.com, and sailing books available on Amazon. I hope you lose yourself in my stories, find yourself in my characters and relish every page. I will keep writing and sailing regardless. It beats the practice at least. Enjoy!

Amazon Author Page — http://www.amazon.com/Annie-Dike/e/B00T25NBVO

Curious about cruising?  Come aboard!  I write to share the stories and I film to share the journey with you. Sign up to follow via the blog, YouTube or Facebook and get videos, blogs and books on cruising, kite-surfing, silks and every adventure in between. If you enjoy the journey, check out my books on Amazon, show some love with a weekly donation through Patreon or just share it with others and let us know. We love to hear from followers and send them free cool stuff. Email or message me on Facebook. Get inspired. Get on board.

Media & Public Relations Manager

OneBlood is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) community asset responsible for providing safe, available and affordable blood to more than 200 hospital partners and their patients throughout most of Florida, parts of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina.

We distributes nearly one million blood products annually, employ more than 2,000 people, operate more than 80 donor centers and deploy more than 200 of our signature Big Red Buses throughout our service area for blood drives.  (Click here to view the OneBlood service area map).

OneBlood has multiple laboratories, manufacturing and distribution sites strategically located throughout our service area enabling quick response to hospital needs and availability of blood products.

Safety of the blood supply is OneBlood’s top priority. Every unit of blood undergoes more than a dozen tests to ensure it is safe for transfusion. Regardless of where the blood is donated in our service area, all blood samples are delivered via a OneBlood courier to Creative Testing Solutions (CTS), our state-of-the-art testing facility in St. Petersburg, Florida. (Click here to see video of our testing facility)

The blood center is heavily regulated by The Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  We are required to follow all FDA rules and are subject to planned and unplanned inspections to ensure complete compliance.

Robert Delaney / Versailles Event Center

Owner

 

 

 

The Versailles operation will be managed by Randy Delaney who brings 33 years of experience in managing private country clubs in Charlotte, N.C., Atlanta, GA., and Pensacola, FL. Randy began his hospitality journey as a Pubic Relations professional on board the M.S. Starward Cruise Ship, one of the fleet of Norwegian-Caribbean lines out of Miami, FL. He lived on board the ship and traveled the Caribbean each week. His primary function was to engage as many passengers as possible on that week’s cruise and ensure that his new manifest of 600 passengers was pleased with all of the services provided by the cruise ship.
 
 Randy received his degree in English & British Literature from the University of North Carolina – Charlotte in 1979, and worked his way through college as a server and bartender at Charlotte Country Club. Upon graduation he took a job as a sports writer with the Charlotte Observer, but never lost his passion for the unique challenges of managing the lofty expectations of the private country club set. He held his first management position as the Food & Beverage Director at Myers Park Country Club in Charlotte in 1982 and it was the beginning of his long and rewarding hospitality career. In addition to his degree at the University of N.C., Randy has completed programs at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y., the Greystone Culinary Institute in California, and completed a Business Management Institute Masters Program at Cornell University in New York.
 
Randy’s military career included Paratrooper Training in Fort Benning, GA., where he received his Silver Wings in 1971, and Special Forces Training at Fort Bragg, N.C.. where he was awarded the Green Beret in 1972. This elite training set the tone for his long-standing drive to succeed in every endeavor. He expects great things from his staff and greater things from himself.
