Spare Change Challenge

We have a winner for the Spare Change Challenge. This time it is Diane Slovit with team "Flamazing Flamingos". They collected a total of $361.0.00 which we rounded up to $400.00, great job! Thanks to Steve and Diane for their fundraising efforts that will go to the Shopping for Foster Kids. Also thanks to everyone who donated all year long.



We now start again with two new Captains. Maddie Koebke with Maddog Parrots has stepped up and Deb Way with Way's Pennies in Paradise. While Deb is in Florida for the winter, Donna Howard will do the collecting. Thank you ladies!



St. Patrick's Pup Crawl

Well only 5 Parrot Heads showed up for the Port Huron St. Patrick's Pub Crawl. We gathered at the Yacht Club. Some ate, some just had drinks and one danced to the Unicorn song. Then on to The Axe Company (some ate there) and then downstairs to Bootleggers for drink. No bands until later and only piano player downstairs.



Then off to Wrigley Center. They had a DJ playing some good songs. They also had a black light so we all were pritty lit! Ha Ha



Before we left there Bill said something that made Candi mad (most likely used military time) so she picked up a chair and .....! Don't mess with Candi! On our way to the next bar, Casey's at McMorran, we spotted a Budweiser ad so the Bud lovers in the group had to get a pic by it.



At Casey's we had drinks and more swag to wear! There was no band there either.



We hit a few more bars; Lynch's, Active, City Limits and Plat 1 Pub before calling it a night. It was a small group but we all had a good time.

BWPHC Christmas Party

This year we had our party at The American Legion Hall in St. Clair. About 28 members signed up to attend. Here are a few pics of people coming in and getting seated. And what is going on behind the bar with Steve and Dale?





Ken was setting up the music. He mostly did a DJ gig but he brought his guitar and played some music. Now look at JIm! This is what I have to put up with while I'm trying to take pictures! He comes up behind me and pokes me in the sides with his fingers! One of these days Jim, pow right to the moon! Of course we can't forget our wonderful bartenders, Gary and Dale!!!




Santa made an appearance! Anyone could get their picture with Santa on his lap!



Before the food came we had a special call to make. I called Janie Howard in Florida to do a Team Drink with her. You see Dec. 27 was Bob Howard's birthday and this was her first birthday she will be without him. Kelly Parker has a wonderful poem for her and then we toasted him. She loved it and was so happy to be there with us even though she wasn't really with us.



Then the food came and we ate. After that we played some games. A gift exchange if anyone wanted to participate. I got a gift with club pictures in it and one of myself! I'm even wearing the same shirt. Kelly got the same thing with a picture of her in it. Couldn't be any better if it were planed! We also played a horse race game, a drop a candy cane on a string into a bottle game and of course Left-Right-Center.






Before the end we got everyone together for a group picture!



We need to thank Gary Reichle and Ken Nofs for chairing this for us. You guys did a great job of pulling this together! Extra thanks to Ken for providing the music and playing! Thanks to all who came out for the party! Merry Christmas! Have a Happy New Year!
