Fun at Riverside

A bunch of R.V.E. folks went over to Riverside, ate and took the boat ride! For those who don't know about it, Riverside is a bar and they have food and appetizers, and you can ride a boat on the Rio Grande. They have Tenderloins, that I've been told are really good

Thanks Daves for sending the pictures to me!!

The meeting this morning really dragged on. Folks just could not decide or agree on what to do about our Thanksgiving Dinner. No one was willing to chair the event. They have to figure out how many Turkeys to buy, but of course they do not have a head count on approximately how many will be coming. It was suggested they talk with Hickeys and find out how many were bought last year, so they would have a pretty good idea of how many to get, as I recall there was huge amounts of turkey left over.Linda Polermo went over to HEB to find out if we could buy pre cooked sliced turkeys, and found out they do not do that so now there's a sign-up sheet for ladies to take a turkey and bake it and slice it and bring it up for the dinner. I did take up sign-up sheets for folks to write down how many will be coming and what they were going to bring, such as salad, or vegy, or dessert also I put up a sign-up for volunteers to set up, clean up after, and a place for those ladies who will take 5 lbs. of potatos home and cook and mash them for the dinner, also volunteers to uncover and be in charge of the dessert table and where to place there dish they wish to share.
Walter Piper came to wish everyone a welcome and also his right hand man, Nathan from Ranchero Village, who over sees our park
I may write more later....

Nov. 7th

Our first R.V.E. business meeting was this morning. It looked like about 70 to 75 folks there.

Harry Rexroad chaired the meeting. Several card games have started, "31" tonight, Sat. morning "Dummy Rummy" Sunday night we had "Mexican Train" Pinochle on Saturday nights.

We talked about whether we wanted to recycle aluminum cans again the Winter, a new gentleman in the park offered to help, and also suggested we could collect them and give to the Masons as a charitable event.

The Mgrs. came to the meeting and Mgr. Bob told about thieves coming over the fence this Summer and stealing some items. Most all were not locked up and easy pickens! He asked that everyone keep their things under lock and key. Bob said the Park is doing some road patching. Re- introduced the Asst. Mgr., Diane Butcher. This summer Ken Barnhart filled in as Asst. mgr. and he worked awfully hard all Summer. The sign he made is beautiful in front of our Office building.

Pam White was cleaning the kitchen but quit so Linda Palermo said she would do it.
No one has stepped up to chair Thanksgiving dinner!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget about your park photo albums, I will get one to you or you may pick yours up at our Monday morning meetings

That's about it for now
