The Pitch Club met December 14, 2021, at the home of Georgia Gilley for the annual carry-in luncheon. There were 12 in attendance rather than our usual eight. We invite those important people who come to play when our members are absent. When I picked up the score sheets to write this article, I couldn’t believe what I saw. Five people tied for high score. I guess we needed to have a play-off, but it was time to go home. So these five earned their 50 cents sharing high: Susan Braams, Norma Bradfield, Pam Cooper, Debbie Johnson, and Martha Shaffer. Janell McQuinn had low score and also won 50 cents.

We had our usual bright red cake from the kitchen of Merylan Lowrey for dessert and then traded gifts and played a game of passing the gifts around the circle when a certain word was read in a Christmas story. It was fun, games, food, and laughter and a spring-like day in December. Merry Christmas to our readers.
