Victorian Village Clubhouse
Hatboro, PA
The day started early. Jimmy and I were at Sam's Club at 7 a.m. to pick up the cake. We had already loaded the car with part of the "stuff" we needed. The second load - the food - came soon after. We set up a few tables, then Joan Freeland came to be my official first-wave set-up crew. I sent Jimmy on his way to get balloons while Joan and I got to work. About a half-hour later, my second-wave, Nancy Telmosse and Joyce Argue, arrived and we got down to serious business.
The dining room with flowers on each table. Thanks Nancy and Joyce.
Part of the main room.
We were still putting the finishing touches on the room when the first guests, Peggy Tull and Gary Addy arrived.

More people started to arrive. Ray Roberts drove up from the DC area. Howard Johnson and Karen West were also early arrivals, along with Tony Pileggi.

More and more people, more and more appetizers and snacks! Al three tables were full of good food. Chips and dips, fruit, veggies, meatballs and sausage, shrimp. But my favorite dish was from Sandy Granato - she brought M&Ms and Hershey Miniatures!
Just the start!

Judy Neill flew in from California just for the reunion. Here she is with Jimmy.
People tended to hang out around the bar. There's Ray Roberts, Tony Pileggi, Stew Ackerman, John McGowan (Joan Freeland's hubby) in the green shirt talking to Denny Johnson. Robin Wright, here from Florida is standing in front of Donna Stricklin. And that looks like Harvey Gordon getting some ice.

Someone commented that this tree looked like pot. I wouldn't know, but Karen West did!
MORE TO COME!
