Our new treasurer, Mr. Michael, donated his time and energy to arrange for us to have special pricing on food and drink at Panini�s. Due to some misinformation generated by a couple of league members we had a small turnout at Panini�s. I�m not telling you that you cannot go somewhere else if you choose, but I hope you choose to join us at Panini�s. April 22, 2012 A note about our gatherings before the league begins tomorrow night: On most nights, we will stay at Hilliard Lakes and have a cookout.
