Happy New Year

Our games have now resumed on their regular schedule. Put us back on your calendars and join us.

Our December 30 Evergreen game was surprisingly well attended. Winning were: 1st Judy Gealy and Pat Macon, 2nd Joe O’Brien and Genny Mozolak, 3rd Marie Pugh and Ruth Bowles, and 4th Betty Bills and Beth Shafer.

The January 3 Women’s Club game was larger than usual and I hope the trend will continue. With a larger game, higher points are rewarded. Points are calculated on the number of players in attendance.

Winning: 1st Pat Featherston and Dick Brisbin, 2nd Carol Winecoff and Myrnie McLaughlin, 3rd Judy Gealy and Carol Bachl, and 4th Pat Macon and

Becky Creekmore.

Best to all in the New Year.
