Hello All,

Our annual banquet is just behind us, and what an evening it was. It was great to see everyone. I just wish I had more time to visit. This year was the best banquet we've had since 2017. Thank you to everyone that came to the banquet, and especially for your support. Congratulations to the winners of the hunts and fishing trip we had on auction this year.  

Our banquet for next year is already set - Saturday, February 4, 2023. So, please mark your calendars.   Now I am looking forward to our monthly meetings. Once I can get some events arranged I'll let everyone know. 

                                             PLEASE NOTE  

Beginning with the pandemic and associated restrictions on group events, and now with rampant inflation I am truly struggling to find a place to hold a monthly meeting at is both convenient and cost effective. I'm not sure if we'll have any monthly meeting this year as so far my searches of not been positive. The places we used in the past are either closed, or extremely expensive at this time.  If anyone has any suggestions please email or call me as I am just about out of options.
