Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful. Still! So, at the February Preservation Club meeting, Feb. 4, we snuggled in with some warm and toasty and yummy soup to shake off the bitter chill. With sandwich chasers, this was quite a treat to kick off the year and our 2010 Membership Drive. Thanks to Tommy Pelton and Karen and Don Nimmo for their generous soup and stew and to Karla Smith, Jeanne Irwin and Ray Eustace for the lip-smacking good pimiento cheese and chicken salad sandwiches.

And speaking of Membership Drives, did you know that all new and returning members receive a nifty soft-side cooler with the even cooler Preservation Club logo on the side? What a deal! For only $20 a year. You can't buy friends that cheap just anywhere!

Nancy Nunez Belly Dancing

Belly-What? Well, as I mentioned, the weather outside IS frightful, and it caused our guest program speaker, Belly Dance instructor Damiana, to have a wreck on the way to the meeting. So, our own lovely Nancy Nunez, Belly Dance student, was kind enough to step in and share a few of her moves and her enthusiasm for the art. Thanks Nancy!

Chili Cook-Off Contest Creates Competitive Karma. In other words, the Preservation Club participated in the Lakeport Kiwanis Chili Cook competition and fundraiser on February 15. The club sponsored 3 entries in this well-attended event that helps raise scholarship monies for local students. Thanks to participating club members Ray Eustace, Jan Pelton, Jeanne Irwin, Pat Williams, Angela Dunlap and Clayton Evans. What a lot of fun! And congratulations to the 1^st Place Warpath Chili, created by Angela and Clayton. Whoop!
