There were 36 units parked in the beautiful well groomed grounds. 120 people enjoyed the weekend, most return campers and a few new ones that will probably make this an annual event on their calendar. The weather cooperated with only a few showers on Sunday when we were about to leave. Although the weather was wet at home we enjoyed hot weather at the park. There was something for all ages to enjoy. Many went golfing, some just enjoyed sitting around visiting. The swimming hole was a welcome adventure for many of the children, old and young alike. The playground equipment kept the little tykes attention throughout the weekend. The Lions had many tournaments planned that you could join in or enjoy watching. Ginger Deitz and Ken Fetkenher were the winners of the “A” event of the crib tournament, while Ann Prentice and Grant Lahd won the “B” event. Bocci Ball tournament proved to be a lot of fun for all ages. Alvin & Lyle Winch won the “A” event while Christine Bushell and Wendy Hingley fought hard to capture the “B” event. The Horse Shoe tournament didn’t quite get off the ground but it was told to us that Betty Armstrong scared everyone away with her very accurate arm & eye. Next year Betty ! While most of the “older, quieter” campers retired to their units the “young ones” held a mud wrestling tournament of their own. The champions were Alan Bartsch & Kim Booth. Maybe next year we will have to have this tournament take place during the day so all can watch!! On Sunday the Lions held the Childrens races. All ages had fun and everyone got a prize. They even got some of the grandmothers involved, tossing water balloons to their grandchild. Everyone got a little wet, I think this was the plan. Due to the hot weather, the water fights proved to be a very welcome game for young and not so young. It seems that the water pistols that they use to use have became gigantic cannons. It started out with the young children spraying each other with water having a great time then their dads and uncles and sometimes moms got into the fun. Everyone went for cover when they saw these “pistol packing parents” coming toting their cannons. The ones that got in their way were completely drenched. What will next year see in water gun technology? It was nice to see Rick and Helen Adel who came over for a visit from their home in Vauxhal. It is great that even though you leave Milo you still have that sense of belonging no matter where you may move to. The Lions once again cooked up two delicious breakfasts that most of us enjoyed, some of the late nighters didn’t quite make it up in time. Too bad you missed a good meal! Thanks again Milo Lions for another Fun Filled Weekend! What kind of coffee was served on the Titanic? Sanka. and what kind of lettuce?
