Picnic

Thanks, Dick, for your complimentary comments about our picnic yesterday. On behalf of the Lakemoor Hills Homeowner Association’s social committee, we want to thank all of you who helped make our annual neighborhood picnic such a great event!!! A great big thank you goes to Alex Shivers who did such a great job smoking the pork (he put in a 9 hr day total!) and Pat for bringing Debbie for pony rides.The Bounce House was a big hit and we have Forrest Orr of Dean Smith Realtors to thank for sponsoring it. Jim de Ropp did a super job with many tasks, including signs and tents, Suzan Bowman and Carolyn Adkins did so much as “co-chairmen”, as did Mike Parker with the car show, Kenneth Pace and Sandra with our art/craft display, and Geri Mulligan with the plant swap. More big “thank you’s” go to Ryan and Miranda Welch for setting up volleyball, Cheri Perry and Hattie for the fun children’s craft activities, Randy and Leslie Kerns for the wonderful steel drums, Clay Aalder for his fly casting demo, and Marta Vandergrif and Rosemary Burr for manning the welcome table. A huge thank you goes to the following whose help was invaluable: Dick and Ann Graf, Jim and Barbara Kincaid, Charlie Mulligan, John Haynes, Gene Burr, Lynn Kleinfelter, Gail Erwin, John Witherspoon, Connie Holmes, Bill Crown, Bill Terry and Chris Reagan. And last but not least, a huge thanks goes to all of you who brought the delicious covered dishes and desserts, and most of all a sincere note of appreciation for all who supported this opportunity to come together and enjoy great food, fellowship and fun!
