Thirty-one members and friends of BBC enjoyed the annual banquet Friday evening at Addilynn United Methodist Church. A delicious meal was prepared by some of the church members who also decorated the room in a festive bird themed decor. The banquet speaker was Dr. John Moyle, a BBC member and officer. He showed beautiful slides of the a that he and Polly took to to the Galapagos Islands. Thanks go to John Moyle for a delightful program, to Janice Martin for keeping accurate count for us, and to all who attended and helped make it an enjoyable event. For those who attended here are the answers to the matching game. Sorry that I forgot the "cheat sheet" last evening.
