Playing Catch Up With Shana      by Shana Roberts

We voted to change the picnics around, so the en femme picnic would be in July instead of August for hopefully cooler weather (July's meeting was a great day – not too hot!). Hopefully, August won't be tooooo hot.

Our annual en femme picnic was held on July 24th at Marcia's. We had a really good turnout, with 18 people showing up. Many members brought their wives along. There was plenty of good food and good times. Tina and Barbara brought their guitars with them, and we had a great time listening to them trying to harmonize on songs one knew and the other didn't. The picnic usually starts to breakup around 6:30 or so, but because of the entertainment, there was still a large crowd around when I left around 8:30! Marsha reports that this is the first time for such an event. Everyone was having such a great time, no one noticed the house next door burnt down... just kidding :-)

Those in attendance were: Rosemary and Theresa, Barbara, Tiffiny H, Tina and Juanita, Janet E, Linda and Yvonne, Mary Alice, Missy and April, Martha and Leslie, Bonnie M, Erica C, myself and two new members, Sabrina (her 2nd meeting) and Lydia (her first). Many thanks to our hosts, Marsha and Doneene, for going to all the trouble they go thru every year to hold the two picnics for us all to enjoy.

Prior to the July picnic, we had a board meeting. Nothing earth shattering was really discussed except for the awful color of my lipstick.
