NEW LOCATION: Monthly Reunion at Foster's for April 17th 2024
Again our monthly meeting will be at Foster's Sports Bar & Grill, locaterd at 4767 West Arrowhead Road (just around the corner from Sammy's).
Fosters offers a better selection of menu items (good pizza too) and we have a private more quiet room (at least until we get there).
Service at Foster's has been a bit slow in the past, so give yourself enough time and stories to update us about you, while we wait.
The White Elephant game went so well, that we will continue it in April for those that want to participate:
1. Bring an item from your home that you no longer want and wrap or bag it up (fool people by shape).
2. Everyone playing the game picks from the pile of "gifts".
3. When all have picked a gift, one at a time (starting with birth month), we open them.
4. If you don't like what you have you can trade with others.
5. Any unwanted gifts will be collected and donated to Savers.
Hope to see you all there.
Ken
