RESULTS:

We had 130 people attend this year and everyone received 5 gifts plus a draw from the money tree, a picture with Santa and an opportunity to play chess or checkers.  We have had these annual year end parties since 1974 excluding the years we were repairing the fire damage. Checker players should come join us this year.  The Mississippi State Chess Champion was here. CWalker
