April's meeting saw the large attendance that has become the norm for our club. The following panorama of members as they gathered before the meeting gives you a good idea of what you are missing if you don't set aside the time each month to join your old (maybe seasoned is a better word) friends and coworkers.

Now, we'll bet you saw a lot of friendly faces that you recognize. This is a great way to take a short journey back in time as you reminisce about the "good old days" at Dave and Bill's place.

It's always good to see the smiling faces of old friends. Mark Lambuth and Hal Wright seemed particularly happy to be at this month's meeting. Has anyone ever seen Mark when he didn't have a smile on his face?

Bonnie Riley from PILLAR was our speaker for this meeting.

Our very own "Wonder Woman", Lois Green, doing what she does best .... multi-tasking. At this month's meeting she was not only taking the minutes as our Secretary, she was also substituting for Treasurer, Laura Mattison, and collecting membership dues. Letting no time slip through her fingers, she was filling any spare time she had by working on a sewing project for Easter.

Claudia and Evelyn provided a delicious selection of goodies in various flavors. There was plenty for all, and many members went back for seconds. Your newsletter editors were among those who made three trips through the line, but don't tell Marlis Blinn or George will get in trouble.
