Some of our members have gotten interested in the game of MahJong so, of course, we invited an expert to come and teach it. Brenda Mallison knows the ins and outs of the game. She started with an explanation of the various styles of the game and then got everyone set up. I was surprised at how many were eager to learn.
There were about 4 or 5 tables set up with the game ready to play. Brenda went from table to table.
Chef Elaine was one of the eager Mahjong players so Chef Olivia took over the actual meal prep for the Chicken Spaghetti with Elaine's recipe. I didn't get a photo of the dinner cooking crew helping Olivia. Elaine came over in time to finish up the garlic toast.
In addition to the Chicken Spaghetti and garlic bread, there was salad with cobbler and pies for dessert. Judging by how quickly the cobbler disappeared, I would say "go with several cobblers" next time.
And then for the entertainment......and what entertainment it was. Our illustrious officers proved what phenominal sports they are by leading off the karaoki in full costume. I'll let you guess who is who. They put a lot of effort into their performance.
Whether watching or performing, everyone had a great time.
Some of the participants were a little more physical than others.
Beverly has been a professional singer. This isn't her usual performance arena but she was willing to give it a shot.
All in all, it was a spectacular end to a really great rally that those who attended won't quickly forget. Sunday there was coffee for anyone who wanted it before they departed. There were a good number of us who stayed a few days longer.
