President’s message

Hello everyone

Another month has passed us by. Even with an extra day this year. We have had a good month of February. We started off with a Euchre tournament. The winners were Cathy and Jeanette. The Pool Tournament was won by Derek G.  Our Super Bowl party was very well attended. We tried out our outdoor heaters which was a great hit. Our Chili Cook-off was a major hit. Congratulations to the winner Mayor Bailey, second place was The Spicey Girls from Ayr and third place went to Derek and Carol “Not your Mother Chili”.

We had trivia and as always well attended. We finished out the month with the Grand Rivermen. They were, as always, great.
