TNG - Anarchy returns & TNGfest thoughts

There will NOT be a ZOOM this WEEK.

We will continue our discussion about the TNGFest and then move on to No topic this week. Just good talk amongst friends AND staying warm.

Maybe we can get a report about the Mound and Troy Hamfest from those that went.

Even though mask are not required feel free to wear a mask if you feel more comfortable. There will be some wearing mask so you will not be the only one.

The pop cooler will only have water in it. So if you want anything else – bring it.

PLEASE if you are having any of the COVID symptoms DO NOT come to the clubhouse.
