We held an abbreviated meeting at our new Dena's Restaurant location on the first Thursday of January - but as that meeting was not well attended and because our new Base Commander and our Secretary were not there - AND because there was a mix-up with Dena's about the first Thursday room reservations - we voted to change our meeting day to every THIRD THURSDAY instead, beginning with the third Thursday in January 2 weeks hence.

However, we later cancelled the third Thursday January meeting because of winter weather.

Here are some photos from the abbreviated first Thursday January meeting for your enjoyment:
