Early arrivals settle down and chat prior to the start of the meeting. Left to right are Gloria Fuentez, Peggy McClellan, Carol Kiebel, Jack Sheets, Greg Tarcza, Gary Roberson, and Roger Christiansen.

In the background are John Hawton, Don Griffith, Niles Whalen, and Pat Bestgen (all are former members of the CRT Team). In the foreground are George and Marlys Blinn and Harry Feldman.

There is always a lot of pre-meeting activity as members arrive. As others wait to sign in, visitor Eileen Pekerek is greeted by Pat Korenke and Laura Winter.

Juanita Hartman visits with Harry Feldman.

Pat Korenke and Les Bailey catch up on what Eileen Pekerek has been doing since we last saw her.

As Nancy Craig (r) looks on, Polly Tounzen shows the large accumulation of aluminum can pulls that have been collected for Mary Lou Bailey's Shrine Hospital project. It is great to see Polly looking so hale and happy again.

This month's "Back Wall Gang" included Tom Saponas, Steve Balsiger, Don Griffith, and Bob Jones.

Today's program was on hospice care and related issues.

Cec Ray looks pretty satisfied with his 50/50 Pot winnings. Wonder if there is enough to pay this month's rent. There was apparently increased play this month, because Gerry McGonigle was not at the meeting.

Jack Casey, Cec Ray and Eileen Pekerek watch the action as the meeting continues.

Now to the really important stuff! Anna Kochis gives some advice to Harry Feldman on what goodies to choose at the refreshement table.

Everyone seems to be enjoying the food and socializing. Food is always better when shared with old (oops, we mean "seasoned") friends

Visiting after the meeting are John Hawton, (an unidentified member), Don Griffith, and Tom Saponas.

Gary Roberson and Roger Christiansen share a story as Barbara Parsons and Niles Whalen enjoy their refreshments in the background.
