Why MSOC is best Christmas tree lot in Denver
A great big thank you Greg Young for replacing our dead Christmas tree at no charge. Although it was a first for us, swapping out the tree was painless and now we have a beautiful healthy tree to make it through our favorite holiday! We will absolutely be back next year, until then wishing you and yours a healthy and happy 2022!
The Woolcotts
Chili Cook Off
Jon Wachter, Gary Strowbridge, and Mark Maglio (a volunteer) sample the chili. There were only 2 entries. Jim Easton and Mark Metevia. The voting was tied at 8 votes apiece. Both were winners!
Honey
Craig Eley reported that he sold 84 jars of honey. How sweet it is!
DRAWING
Hooray! We had a drawing. With only 18 members present, the cup-of-money was small, but several, including Bob Avery, Mark Metevia, Tom Hoch and Jack (of course) Kleinheksel chose cups, which led to Ed Collins and Bob Avery having to draw for the big money ($40). Neither was successful, nor was Tom Hoch whose name (after many were sorted out) was drawn and was wearing his name tag. Next week, $50 and a brand new deck of cards.
Jon Wachter
On this last day of 2021(Thank goodness) with the new moon still visible and with President Tom Kramis attending via Zoom (He tested positive for Covid-19); Jon Wachter called the meeting to order and asked Cesar Camerena to read the invocation. After reading the standard New Year invocation, Cesar read a second to remind us of those who lost everything in yesterday's wildfire just east of Boulder, in Superior. The 18 members present then recited the Pledge of Allegiance. Cesar Camarena
