Caroline was good enough to take notes for me. There were 40 attending this morning, including some past members, Charlie and George Monroe long with Ann Skoglund and a guest by the name of Sandy Winner. The birthday drawing was won by Fred Knapp. The 50/50 winner was Charlie Monroe, welcome back Charlie!!! Our ticket winners were Willie, Debbie Trask, Tim McDonald, Penny (2x), Clem, and Dave Bennett. Penny did win $1.00 on one of the scratch-offs. That s pretty much all I have for this month, but hope to see you all next month. ODDS and ENDS Overnighter Make sure you let us know if you have made your hotel reservation, so we know numbers.

3 Let s Meet for Lunch Overnighter 2014 There were 16 who attended lunch for April at Pizzaland. There were quite a few who took home doggie bags for future meals. At least you can t say you didn t get your money s worth. Jackie and Fred joined us today. The first of our group to return for the summer. It was good to see them. I m also happy to say that Elsa was there, walking without a cane or assistance of any kind after have a hip replacement. She is doing well and I m sure Clem is glad she is on her feet again. The 50/50 was won by yours truly. I ve had a good run of luck over the past 3-4 months so I guess I ll have to set back next month and give someone else a chance.

The weather was not riding weather as it rained off & on, but we had 1 brave sole who rode his new Spyder. Ted & Terri Beers were missed as they had a family funeral to attend. There was lots of door prizes, even some left over, that we will take to the Poker Run in August. Some more of our snow birds returned and were there, great to see them.
