Annual Meeting at Carl's

It was a great day!!  The weather was perfect and there were many friends and members of MGRS who made the trip to Carl and Pat's  open house in Buxton today. Some traveled long distances like Bill Goodrich and his wife, Paul Smith, Barry & Buckie, Ivan & Gerry, Tiny, The Medel's from NH.  In fact all over the State of Maine.  Plus several NHGRS friends that came to visit.  The Club is growing bigger and better all the time.  Thanks to the great auction items also.  That was a big success!  Lots of folks signed up for the train trip and the return to the Mall.  Walter sold about $160 in raffle tickets.  The luncheon dishes and the desserts were terrific. Again thanks to Carl & Pat and all the people that helped them,  you did a great job and it was truly appreciated. Congratulations to Andy Hendrickson and Ralph Luby who joined the BOD and Dick Cosgrove as the new VP.  The patches were very well received and everyone thought they looked very good.  Thanks to Dick who drove up from CT and was such a good bidder.  Thanks to Norm and the  Circus Division for their display and to Ernie who would make a great ring master!  It was all good and it fit together well.  There is a lot to look forward to!

And be it noted that John Jackson received some very well-deserved recognition for the wonderful contributions he's made to the MGRS over his years of service. Be it also remembered that Doug Johnson received recognition (and a lifetime MGRS membership) for founding our Society. Congratulations to both of you!
