We had four motor homers and thirty five attendees. Our golf tournament had two foursomes and we played a golf course from hell. Dick Black and Pete Jordan were overall winners We had a sing along in the Gregorich's solarium in the evening. Bernie Kalkbrenner's famous BBQ recipe yieldedsome excellent sandwiches to accompany the many delicious dishes to passprovided by the group. We all signed a get well card for Dave Lockhartwho is convalescing at home in Elk Rapids Michigan. Bernie and ChuckKalkbrenner carried the card on their visit to the Lockhart's. Twenty-one of our group stayed for the annual Pig Roast Cancer Benefit held bythe Jordan's on Saturday the 21st. The Jordan's purchase a pig from ourlocal county fair and provide all the good stuff that goes with a pigroast. We started the day with a canoe and kayak flotilla covering afive mile stretch of the Muskegon River. Next came the dinner followedby the music by the campfire provided by Pete Jordan, Harold Gregorich,Rob Kotecki, our next door neighbor Lori Campbell, and friends John Kaneon Harmonica, and Marilyn Jones on the fiddle.
