President Bob Young lassoed THREE folks who worked their butts off for the coveted President's Award. Marcia Gold, Sharon Lobel, and Duane Murphy. And the Judge's Choice Award for the darn "purtiest" picture at the event went to Marcia Gold. Meantime, Norman Reneau is slapping his thigh on winning the West Coast School Scholarship for 2013!
Can't close the barn door without giving the gal who corraled Open House,
Sharon Lobel, a Texas-sized hug for all of her hard work. That was one heckuva slide show, too, ma'am!
Thanks to her committee: Jim Akers and Rae DeVito; to the Hospitality: Onnie Hull and Cheryl Provencio for the great grub; Sean Lee for his C & W toe-tapping tunes, and all the other folks who put in some elbow grease to make this hoedown a shindig to remember!
