I was unable to be present, but have heard what a wonderful Indoor Potluck Picnic the Social Committee put on led by Sharon Ferriss and Victoria Cuthbert.

About 47 people shared a bounty of food and no one went home hungry.

Graeme Thompson drew his own name in the 50/50 draw 

taking home $77.50.

The entire Social Committee is pictured below.
