Darrin S Sherrill Enjoys Club Memberships



Throughout most of his life, Darrin S Sherrill has been a member of numerous clubs. Whether or not he was an active member, Darrin S Sherrill enjoyed networking within the clubs and meeting other people with the same interests as him. Aside from networking and the social aspect of clubs, Darrin S Sherrill championed every club’s mission of growth, enrichment, and promoting awareness.

For instance, Darrin S Sherrill joined the Hummer Club in June 2000. While he and his family enjoyed many road trips throughout the years in their Hummer, Darrin S Sherrill also appreciated how the club aimed to promote the safe use of Hummers, educate members on guidelines, and encourage harmless land-use and community service. “Every club I join has a mission or purpose that I whole-heartedly support,” says Darrin S Sherrill. Though he and his family have enjoyed their association, they sold their Hummer this past spring and will not be renewing their membership.

However, Darrin S Sherrill and his family are members of other clubs that they are still able to enjoy. Since February 2001, Darrin S Sherrill has been involved with Club Sea Ray. Again, Darrin S Sherrill enjoys networking with thousands of other Sea Ray owners as well as discussing the technical aspects of their equipment. “Being a member also reminds me to spend time with my family,” says Darrin S Sherrill. “The past two summers, we’ve spent time on our Sea Rays by cruising around Florida or traveling to the Chesapeake Bay.”

Though Darrin S Sherrill is also a member of the Mercedes Car Club, he has never participated with his local chapter in Georgia. “It’s not that I don’t want to get involved,” says Darrin S Sherrill, “but it’s difficult to find the time, especially when you’re a member of multiple clubs like me.” Regardless, Darrin S Sherrill prefers to maintain membership because he enjoys the association and hopes that one day he’ll be able to dedicate more time to the club. Darrin S Sherrill is also a member of the Lake Lanier Association and celebrates the club’s commitment to cleaning up the lake and ensuring environmental health.

Why Darrin Sherrill is an Involved Father




Recently, there has been a national discussion on the absence of a father figure for many children in America. In fact, according to the United States Census Bureau, one out of three children is raised without their biological father. “It’s a shame,” says Darrin Sherrill, who is involved in the lives of his own children. “I enjoy spending time with my children and hope that any other father would feel the same.”

Despite his demanding career and time in the air as a pilot, Darrin Sherrill remains invested in his children even as they have moved away from their Georgia home. One of Darrin Sherrill’s sons, Michael, received the prestigious Auburn Spirit Foundation Scholarship. The funds are available for 4 years beginning in the fall of 2008. “I’m proud of Michael,” says Darrin Sherrill. “He’s studious and ambitious. I definitely think there’s a correlation between academic success and the presence of a strong father figure.”

Darrin Sherrill’s theory is correct, according to the National Fatherhood Initiative. Children who grow up without a father figure are four times more likely to live in poverty compared to their peers. Furthermore, children raised in single-parent households are 4.3 times more likely to get involved in drugs and alcohol. Darrin Sherrill believes that because of his involvement in his children’s lives, they’ve chosen to participate in extracurricular activities instead of substance abuse.

In fact, Darrin Sherrill’s other son, Kevin, received a wrestling scholarship to the University of Northern Iowa. Though Kevin received a wrestling scholarship, he eventually changed his major to Art, which was encouraged by his parents. “You know, parents should encourage their children more to follow their passions,” says Darrin Sherrill. “I was proud of Kevin for receiving a wrestling scholarship, but I’m just as proud of him for pursuing something he loves.” Darrin Sherrill also enjoys that his son is now studying in Alpharetta, Georgia, which is much closer to home than his initial choice of the University of Northern Iowa.

“I want to see my children succeed – that’s why I’m involved,” says Darrin Sherrill. “Whether or not they follow in my footsteps is up to them, but I want to be remembered as a positive role model in their lives.” Aside from being involved, Darrin Sherrill encourages other fathers to be positive figures by living a life of ethical character, professional success, and love.

Darrin Scott Sherrill is an Experienced Boat Owner


Boating can be a very expensive hobby. People go boating for sport, vacation, or even work. And the environment in which your boat is kept affects the longevity of the boat as well. Dry dock storage or mooring in a marina are parts of an environment that should be considered. And any repairs to boats can be just as costly as repairing a car, if not more expensive. But people don’t own a boat with repairs in mind, they own them for enjoyment!

Darrin S. Sherrill of Georgia knows both the positives as well as the negatives of boat owning. He bought his first Sea Ray in 2001, and has owned either one or two Sea Rays at any given point from that point to present day.  Currently, he is the proud owner of only one Sea Ray, but he has been a faithful Sea Ray owner for over a decade. Darrin Scott Sherrill enjoys boating and his ownership of a Sea Ray demonstrates that very much.

And not only has Darrin Scott Sherrill of 1095 Mockingbird Lane in Cumming, Georgia, owned a boat for personal pleasure, but he has vacationed by boat as well. For four years, he along with other Sea Ray owners took vacations to the Bahamas by boat. His first Bahamas vacation with the Sea Ray club was on a 29-foot SunDancer. He upgraded his second year to a 42-foot SunDancer, but then upgraded again for the third and fourth Bahamas vacation by taking a 51-foot SunDancer.
Each of the vacations consisted of around 30 boats, so not only was Darrin Scott Sherrill able to vacation with his boat, but he was able to talk and travel with other boat owners. Darrin Scott Sherrill enjoys boating and being outdoors. His love for boat ownership has led to his owning a boat for over a decade.

Cruise Vacations are not new to Darrin Scott Sherrill


Many people enjoy a number of different types of vacations. Some people may like to do some rough camping up in the mountains, some may like to vacation in the winter and go skiing, and others may travel abroad to experience a culture different from their own. And some people, like Darrin S. Sherrill of Georgia, like to take cruises. The cruise industry has its own ups and downs, but that doesn’t stop people from enjoying the experience.

For a while, Darrin Scott Sherrill had been a regular cruise passenger. There was a period of several years where he and his family would take cruise vacations regularly. Darrin Scott Sherrill’s cruise vacations were so consistent that he and his family belonged to the Royal Caribbean Crown & Anchor Club. However, it has been about 4 years since Darrin Scott Sherrill of 1095 Mockingbird Lane in Cumming, Georgia has been on his last cruise vacation. However, that doesn’t stop the Royal Caribbean Cruise line from sending him material, tempting him to take yet another cruise vacation.

There are a number of different cruise lines and cruise destinations that interested vacationers can choose from. Some cruises go to Alaska, some to Hawaii, and some frequent the Caribbean Islands. For his past cruise vacations, Darrin Scott Sherrill always vacationed in the sunny warm weather of the Caribbean. And while it has been years since his last cruise vacation, Darrin S. Sherrill of Georgia was sure to create a lot of lasting memories from each one of the cruises. What made the cruises so wonderful were not only the exotic islands and water, but the ship environment as well.

Darrin Scott Sherrill Enjoyed Taking Bahamas Vacations


Lots of people enjoy going away to somewhere different and exotic when they go on vacation. Vacationing somewhere “different” may vary depending on where you live geographically and what your typical vacation usually consists of. But, for Darrin S. Sherrill Georgia, some of the past vacations he thoroughly enjoyed were his trips to the Bahamas.

No doubt, a trip or vacation to the Bahamas is very exciting. What made their vacation experience slightly different from other vacationers was their method of travel. Darrin S. Sherrill of Georgia took a few weeks off in the summers of 2001, 2002, and 2003 to travel to the Bahamas by boat.

Darrin Scott Sherrill of 1095 Mockingbird Lane in Cumming, Georgia took these boat-traveled vacations along with other vacationers who belonged to a small club of Sea Ray owners. The Bahamas-bound vacationers would typically travel together in a group of around 30 boats. Darrin S. Sherrill of Georgia enjoyed the two-week-long vacations, and he would extend his family’s vacations when the group returned home by cruising in his boat either around Florida or making a trip to the Chesapeake Bay before deeming the vacation over.

Darrin Scott Sherrill loved the trips and changed boats several times for the vacation. The first trip was made in a 29-foot SunDancer and the second vacation in a 41-foot SunDancer. However, Darrin S. Sherrill Georgia saved the best for last and took the last two Bahamas vacations in a 51-foot SunDancer, which qualified as a yacht more than a boat. However, no matter the size of the water vehicle, Darrin Scott Sherrill enjoyed the Bahamas vacation with other Sun Ray owners.
