Rally & Luncheon Reviews - 2001

These are the reviews of SNU luncheons and rallies that were published in SNU newsletters. Most were written by Diane Leipper unless otherwise indicated.

January 2001 - Luncheon at the Carson Nugget

Steve Burnham

Only 8 people showed up for the January lunch at the Carson Nugget. Since the group was so small we all decided to move into the coffee shop rather than the buffet. Attending were Elenere Amidon, 2 Burnhams, Betty Kopfhammer, 3 Leippers and Pete Rinne. The people who did not come were the topic of conversation, including Diane Leipper who was attending a conference in Amsterdam Holland, having an interesting time, and had sent e-mail messages and pictures.

Pete Rinne was not able to make it as he did not feel too well, and Frank & Steve Burnham also had to sit it out due to a sudden flu-type bug that caught hold of them. All now recovered and doing well, The reports we heard were that the place was nice and the food plentiful.

A few of us had a very nice lunch at Airport Plaza in May after it turned out 1 tent and 1 trailer were ready to go to the rally at Fort Churchill. There were only 5 of us. Pete Rinne was sick and only one Leipper (Bryan) could come due to doctor appointment conflicts and Diane was in Nebraska and the Groschs were packing.

September 2001 Luncheon at Station Grill and Rotisserie

Don and MaryLou Damoth

The September meeting was held at the Station Grill and Rotisserie in Carson City. We discussed business and had a good time. The Leippers, Burnhams, Damoths, Barrons, Wights, Fred Hersey, Elenere Amidon, and Diane Leipper were there. Lots of food and conversation were enjoyed. Because of the large group, individual meal bills were not available, so we had to divvy up the bill ourselves. This caused some concern so we will notify people ahead of time at future meetings.
