Oct 30 2023Halloween Meeting!8102617533376.6Valerie celebrated by wearing a fabulous costume! I seem to remember that it was a witch?

Sep 11 2023Sept 11 2023121638111774367.9Looks like Chris Canik and David Cole were undefeated. Looks like Chris put "ME" for his name on one of his score sheets but on the back he put "C" for the bingos so I think it was Chris
