Janet and Tom Phelan from Vermont get in a little research on Friday before the events get started. Joan Parks Hubley, one of the organizers, gets all dolled up for the event on Friday nite. A number of people took advantage of their trip to Lunenburg. Here is Barbara (seated) answering some of the many questions. Paul Conrad (vice president) had the honor of opening Friday nite events. The auditorium was filled for the lectures on Friday nite.

Joan Parks Hubley explained her outfit and then introduced Terry Punch. Terry Punch was one of the guest speakers. As usual, he captivated the audience. After the lectures, the party got started. Ha!Ha!. Lunenburg County Winery provided samples of their wine. Another Lunenburg Co. tradition - great food. Paula Masson and Betty Rhodenizer sampling the goodies.

Many family discussions Jeanne Trimper enjoying the punch. Paul Conrad tasting the wine. The organizers, Front: Betty Rhodenizer, Paula Masson, Joan Parks Hubley, Back Janet Heisler, Stephen Ernst, Paul Conrad, Jerry Randall.
