Thursday 2-6-2020

With sad news: Joy McFaden long time visitor to Trophy Gardens passed away yesterday 2/4/2020.  Joy and her husband JB wintered in Trophy's back forty for many years.  Joy was a super person and great fun to be with, she will be missed.  Thank you Rich Fulhorst for this information.


Monday is the Veterans Celebration Luncheon!! Eating at 11:30 am.
****This is for the U. S. Vets and the Canadian vets. You need to get your tickets by tomorrow, Friday, so the organizers know how much food to fix and tables to set up. Veterans eat free but you need a ticket for the count. Put your names on the back and the branch of service. The lunch is $9.00 for non-veterans. The menu is Swiss Steak, carrots, mashed potatoes and gravy, Chocolate Cake. Get your ticket from the activity office.

The Donation Station will now be called “ Drop & Shop” from now on. On Saturday, February *8th for the yard sale it will be opened from 8:00 to 12: noon.
Regular hours will remain Tuesday for Drop 10:30 to 11:30 am and Shop 3:00 to 4:00 pm.

If you were foolish enough to miss the Potato Bake on Wednesday—it was wonderful and a lot of fun. We had Bourbon Pies given by Popeye's Chicken.
There were many coupons given away. The big will winner of the Super Bowl Guess was Moe Lafavre receiving $51.00. He missed the guess by one point. Nancy Johnson was a big winner too as she won the 50/50 that was $219.00. Glenda Davis won the raffle for the beautiful quilt.

To any Bean Bag Players: We are having a gathering at Mr. Gatti's on Thursday, Feb 13th. If interested in playing Bingo be there at 10:00AM, if just going to eat be there at 11:00.  The cost is $6.81, which includes tax and drink.  Spouses are also welcome!!  We will need to know who is coming so please come and sign up during the Bean Bag playing time on Tuesday or Thursday from 1:00 to about 2:30 in the hall.  The deadline to sign up is Feb 11th.

Trivia results for 2/4/2020
Team Smarty Pants: Dan, Linda, and Chris Lang, Heather and Richard Donald, Barb Jacobson, Jean and Bob Williams, Jerry and Connie Gillean and Chris Cronk surprised themselves when coming in first with a score of 108.
Team WDK (We Don't Know): Sheryl Cavage, Willard and Barb Utech, Maureen Thompson, Candy Dewey, Phil, and Sue Hudson also surprised themselves with a second-place win of 94.
The lower scores reflect the fact that the questions were on the more challenging side. That changes from week to week. The maximum score that can be achieved is 150. If the questions were too easy we would have ties that would then need tiebreaker questions. As in all aspects of life, it is a balancing act. Having a boatload of fun with friends remains consistent. I have been asked if it is okay to come and listen to the questions without participating and it most certainly is welcomed for you to do so. Come on along!  Hosts Barb and Butch Brooker
