That’s quite a turnout, huh! And, of course, with all these wonderful animals came their wonderful owners with what else ..... FOOD... FOOD AND MORE FOOD! As we all know, that’s what we do best... cook. It was so nice to see many members for the first time or again after a long absence.

And now the results of the hotly contested games:

CANINE SCAVENGER HUNT
Spiff and Handler Guy Jensen (1st)
Racer and Handler A.J. (2nd)

HUMAN SCAVENGER HUNT
TEAM - Susan Liby, Candy & Ed Ferner, Jennifer Brancato, Alison Taub

WET T-SHIRT CONTEST TEAM - Guy Jensen & Cosmo, Ed Ferner & Jericho, Shaun Gerende & Remmee, Joe Gerende & Shooter, Brent Baharie & Kelly and Alison Taub & Hope.

The event was organized and staged by Sarah Messick and Candy Ferner. Great job ladies! Everyone who was there had an absolutely great time. By the way, the WET T-SHIRT CONTEST was not as implied. I’m sure you figured that one out on your own. Specifically, the shirts were not worn by humans....get the picture?

As the saying goes, we’ll have to do this again next year so if you didn’t get a chance to participate this time around, be sure to mark your calendars when the date in ‘98 is set.
