Club News There are two Bunco clubs in the subdivision as you have probably guessed by now. I hope they soon get names for them so we won't be so confused.

A frozen dessert was served by Kay. The second Bunco club held their game at the home of Kay Mitchell^ith Lydia Fenncr as hostess. She served a pineapple cheese cake. Prizes went to Ann Ritter first and bunco and Lydia took home the booby prize.

He was invited for the graduation party of Luci Johnson and stayed right^ at the home of the president of the United States. What a wonderful experience. His family back here is just as delighted as -he is. The Teen Club held a very successful dance on Saturday, May 29, at the barn. They had a group of boys from the high school bring their instruments and play. They had a dance contest, one of the winners was Roxanne Fuson, and I did not get the name of her partner, I'm sorry to say. I would like to take the time to say thank you to the Teen club members who have been putting so much work in at the barn. They have been keeping the grass cut and the barn clean inside. Too often we quickley criticize them without taking the time to see all the good they have been doing. How about making this be kind to the Teen Club week. And take the time to tell them their help in our community is appreciated.

Someone defined it for me like this. A back yard fiasco consisting of children running wild, burned chicken, hamburgers and hot dogs with charcoal dust, salads with flies hovering over, a cook (usually of the male species) tipping his arm at regular intervals, smoke in your eyes and the besit tasting meal ever. Well at least a good time was had by those who entertained in this manner on the holiday. They were the Woolwine family who had as guests Dolores's Aunt and yncle, Toni and Leo Pomerantz from San Francisco and her mother and father Mr. and Mrs.: Innocent!. The Sigman family with relatives Chuck and Jim Sigman and families. The Fenner family with friends Robert and Helen Delsanto and children. The Salo family with Marilyn's mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. P. Jordan. The Butler family had their cook-out at the home of former residents, Ed and Mary Vestgard in Fox Lake. The Borcovan family^ had relatives from both sides. Elmer's sisiter and family from Mt. Prospect and Pat's mother, Mrs. Lee Downey, and brother, Richard, and his family. Also two sisters and their families the Gene Deneens and the Ray Sandacks, all from Chicago. Mrs. Hoppe has had her two grandchildren for two weeks while their mother is recovering from surgery in a Chicago hospital. We wish her a speedy recovery. Thought for the day. We can pick our friends and we can pick our enemies, but God picks our neighbors. JOHNSBURG NEWS BETTY HETTERMANN V.
