Tables were beautifully adorned with floral centerpieces and members were entertained with the exquisite sounds of Val Thieke’s granddaughter, Natalie, brilliantly playing the flute. Joining Natalie, were the melodious voices of several members singing along, including Joan, Rosemary, Lynda, and Fran. A short general meeting was held with the general membership approving several new motions pertaining to the club’s by-laws and procedures.
