Ned & Betty Flesher, Gene & Darlene Groff, Dick & Joyce Jones, Bob Kamin, Carol Luecht, Sonny & Norma Neal, Art & Phyllis Reinholtz, and Gene & Emily Reinholtz.  

Friday evening we had our usual potluck with the main dish being delicious pulled pork sandwiches. all the rest of the potluck was excellent food as always. We had a lovely surprise Friday as Ed & Barb Allen drove over to be with us for the day and evening. They brought along Dick & Bertie Riehl who we haven't seen for several months due to Berties' slow recovery from surgery. We were really pleased to see them. In the afternoon, we had our business meeting and our new officers were installed. It turned out that all the officers that were already in office were re-elected and installed. President: Joyce Jones, Vice president: Martha Carroll, Secretary: Betty Flesher: Treasurer Barb Allen.

Saturday we drove to the really large Marigold Festival in Pekin, Il. Later, Emily Nafziger joined us for a great dinner at the Village Inn at Minier, Il. and in the evening we attended the usual country music entertainment that is held every weekend at Kentuckiana Camp Ground.
