Winter Cabin Fever Daze
March 8, 2003 Saturday
2 - 4p.m.
Hosted at the home of Jane Bechtel
and program was organized by Carol Woodall.
Though we organized this event later
than usual this year, it is never out-of-season to remind ourselves of the multitude
of exciting activities going on in this town. It was a beautiful sunny day and
the roads were a bit icy!
Pat DeRuyter, President
