Last week's meeting...
Thanks to all those who pitched in to help as we celebrated Bob Goebel's 90th birthday during our club meeting last week. Bob is a charter member of our club, he served as our 5th Club President (1991-92) and is a PHF+8. Throughout his 36 years of membership, he has been - and continues to be - a very active attender and supporter of our club and activities. 
Bob is shown here with his wife, Rosalie and their daughter
& son-in-law, Gretchen & Mike Sharp.
 
Colby Reynolds and Ed Frey (our next two upcoming Club Presidents - in that order) gave an informative program on what they learned at PETS along with ideas to implement in our club.
