We had twelve couples attend the rally. Eight were newcomers, who have been with Northern for 2 years or less, and four couples were old timers.. We had good weather for Friday and Saturday, but got some rain Sunday morning. Some of the members stayed on till Tuesday, as they enjoy the park and are retired. They do not have to go back to work on Monday. Lucky them. We “Happy Houred”a top of Schwarz’s Skydeck and used the club grill to make three of our meals.
