Members and guests started arriving at 1230 the weather really cooperated this year and it was an enjoyable afternoon for all.  We had 58
members and guests in attendance. Thanks to Buddy Moore, Ben Kennedy, Harry Huggins, and Henry Domme for setting everything up, and cleaning prior the picnic.  Thanks also go to Ben Kennedy for bringing some NC Bar-B-Q, and Buddy Moore for his delicious chili and to everyone bringing a covered dish, desserts, and other fixings to go with the Bar-B-Q. 

Congratulations to Matte Matteson he was presented The Bob Lewis Outstanding Achievement Award by past CWOA National President Randy Cornell and Bob Lewis. 

50/50 Raffle was won by Jerry Crooks and he graciously donated back $30.00 to the Chapter.  Jane Huggins won the brass Titanic bell.  She is going to place it next to the bed so she can alert Harry that it is time to make her breakfast, bring coffee, or what ever her heart desires.  Dave Pillsbury won a new CWO clock.  Said it was just what he always wanted.  Judy Stearns won a weather clock donated by Bill Maroulis.  Jerry Crooks and Don Leudke both won a tin of Peanuts donated by Dave Sterling.
