Gail Carter (left) holds the cake (after heroically stopping its downhill slide off the tray) while Deni McIntyre (background from left), Maggy Piffaretti and Katie Hayes watch Huntsman and newly-appointed Joint Master Kim Sigmon blow out her 3 candles.


The birthday girl gets a kick out of her new pony, the only equine she'll be allowed to ride while she recovers from back surgery during the summer. Jerry McKenzie (right) laughs while Noel (center) is enthralled with the gift who moves his muzzle and neighs along with the William Tell Overture!

A stand-in for tall Stu Fine accepts a stand-in for the Betsy Poole Award from Jt. Masters Jerry McKenzie (center) and Cam Hall (neither of whom are stand-ins nor stand-ups.)

Jerry and Cam (at their true heights of Joint Masterships) give the Floyd Poole Award to John Sigmon (right).



Maggy Piffaretti (left) who brought the club its Cowbell Award from her home in Switzerland, has baby bells for each Cowbell Awardee to keep. Katie Hayes (right) won the award last fall. She will pick this year's winner.

Members Lesley Hunt (far left) and Maggy Piffaretti (in red) were thanked by the Masters, Jerry McKenzie (second from left) and Cam Hall (far right) for the service they have given the club.



A special treat was the performance of Will (background) and Deni McIntyre's clever, hilarious song, "Scamming Landlord Blues."

Deni leans in for a riff on the harmonica between verses of her lyrics, set to the tempo of "Beverly Hillbillies," while Will grins and strums.
