YesterYear

5 Years ago Bobbi Bird, Jim Dati, Dale Timble, and Jon McLeod gathered to lead the singing. However, cooler heads prevailed and Song Leader Emeritus Steve Krchniak led the singing of "By The Light Of The Silvery Moon". 10 Years ago We were pleased and proud to hear Frank Ogden, a Charter Member of our Club, deliver a very interesting presentation on “Fly Fishing.” We learned that fly fish-ing essentially involves the use of any combination of feathers and furs presented in such a way as to fool a fish.

Donna did not win!
