A great turnout of one hundred and twenty members and guests gathered for our annual B-B-Q at Hillside Sportsman’s Park. The weather was sunny and quite breezy, however that didn’t stop the events of the afternoon from an enjoyable time together.Prior to the meal, our hosted bar offering wine and soft drinks was well staffed by Club members Jan Barnes, Jim Bradley, Bill Hammond and Kathleen Doherty. And thanks to Bill Hammond’s wife, Annette for assisting.
Volunteers greeting guests, passing out name badges and raffle tickets were Jo Jones, Charlene Bradley, Helene Hall and Sandra Hjorth. The Club also wants to thank, Joan Semonsen, Betty Beaudet, and Miriam Schwartz who arrived early in the afternoon to help Board members set up the tables with decorations and nibbles and assist in cleaning up. Transportation of supplies and transporting guests to the Park, with their golf carts, were Betty Beaudet and Joan Semonsen. Lynn Letteris was our photographer for the event.
Every volunteer was recognizable to our guests by wearing a beautiful rose boutonnière, a thoughtful and unique gift from Monte Hall (our VP) and his wife Helene.
Catering by Simple Elegance was well orchestrated offering a choice of marinated tri-tip with a delicious BBQ sauce, smoked chicken, Greek pasta salad, baked beans, ice cream, lemon bars and cookies. Rounding out the meal with coffee.
As members and guests greeted one another our entertainer for the event John Convery was strumming up some background music on his banjo. When most of us had finished the meal Jack played of some of our favorite songs to sing-a-long with or, as several of us decided, shake a booty or tap a toe.
