Everyone looks so YOUNG! I had a great time but, after two full days, I was unable to stay for the dinner. So sorry. I am especially disappointed that I didn't get to visit with Dean, Larry, and wives. I did get to see some Parker guys that I haven't seen for a long time because of physical problems. I won't be back on Sunday because two days was about enough. In the Sandanona days, five days was not enough.

Looks like you all had great weather and a good time. Just one question, in the photos it looks like a garage door............ in the background, where was the annual meeting held?

[Bill Mullins]

I was not able to attend but want to thank all that did and made our 25th PGCA Anniversary banquet a huge success! Wishing the next twenty-five years to be even better!! 🤗😊

The banquet/meeting was held on site at Hopkins. The large multipurpose room was just fine.
