Deere became Deere John. I think last year we celebrated Pulled Pork Day. How do you like your pulled pork? Well done? I don’t know if pulled pork is on the menu; you may have to ask for it as a special. Regardless,come out and enjoy a good home like meal, and discuss upcoming events.

Potluck/Business Meeting at Hilltop Manor Community Room, 1411 S. Oliver

On Mulligan Day, we’re returning to Hilltop Manor Community Room for our Potluck/Business Meeting. The theme is harvest, so bring a dish of something from your garden. As it may be cold out, let’s also include chili or any hot dish to share. If you’re wondering about desserts, remember it’s also Sweetest Day and Cookie month. And If you have extra plants or seeds to share, bring them to exchange.
Thank you, Mike & Joe, for cleaning and clearing your garage so that we may have a dining hall, and for the many times you have volunteered to host our events. And thanks to Joe McC for being our contact person and liaison with Hilltop Manor and securing us the use of their Community Room. We owe you each a potluck dinner!

Halloween candy, if you still have any.

Celebrations at Shang Hai Restaurant 3815 E. Harry
2020-11-05 18:30 - 20:00
Well it may be Men Make Dinner Day, but men also make excellent reservations as well. It’s not often that we get to go for
Asian food, but I thought it would be a special treat for November Birthday Boys and Anniversary couples. Come out to help us celebrate their special days.

2020-11-07 09:00 - 10:00

Lunch With The Boys at Barn'rds Restaurant, 3860 N. Maize Rd.
2020-11-13 11:30 - 13:00
They don’t take reservations but thought it would be no trouble to seat us. So, whoever gets there first, ask for a table for
eight or more. I don’t think that we ever went to Barn’rds when it was at 2037 N. Woodlawn. But for World Kindness Day it seemed like a natural. You can view their menu at: www.barnrds.com.

Board Meeting at Riverside Cafe, 739 W. 13th St. N.
2020-11-16 18:30 - 20:00
It may be National Fast Food Day but their food is never fast here at Riverside Cafe. As it is also International Tolerance Day, we’re always tolerant of other people’s ideas for activities. So, come out on Have A Party With Your Bear Day and have a good hot home like meal as we present to the board activities for the month.

Pitch Night at Tracy's
2020-11-18 19:00 - 22:00

Boys Night OUT at J's Lounge, 513 E. Central
2020-11-20 19:00 - 20:00
On National Absurdity Day, having Boys Night OUT a week early would seem obvious. It’s also Beautiful Day which is another reason we’re going to go out to be among the beautiful people. We may play pool, or beautiful people watch or just visit among ourselves because we’re beautiful people too.

Potluck & Business Meeting at Hilltop Manor Community Room, 1411 S. Oliver
2020-11-21 18:30 - 20:00

2020-11-27 18:30 - 20:00
Reserved. It’s You’re Welcome Day and it only seemed fitting to schedule dinner at the Original Town & Country. I spoke
to Heather, one of our favorite waitresses, who was happy to hear from us. You can read about their reopening and see their mesquite grill menu at: https://www.wichitabyeb.com/2020/10/first-look-town-country-restaurant.html.

World AIDS Day
2020-12-01
Theme: Ending the HIV / AIDS Epidemic: Resilienceand Impact: www.state.gov/blogs-pepfar/worldaids-day-2020. As I understand there is no organized local activity or event due to Covid 19. Again, Covid19 reminds me so much of the dreaded early days of HIV/AIDS. The fear of the unknown of how one becomes infected, the reluctance of getting tested,the excruciating long period of time before you get your test results back, the reveal of your test results,the fear of socializing, and the only seemingly social events were attending funerals of friends of our own age who fell victim to the dreaded disease. I wonder if we will have a World Covid 19 Day in the future? Maybe we were meant to remember lest that we ever forget.

Pitch Night at Mike & Joe's, 921 N. Bebe
2020-12-02 19:00 - 22:00
A nice indoor activity is to play cards with our guys who make it fun! And if you’re thinking about what to bring to our favorite
snacks and beverages bar, it’s National Fritters Day.

Celebrations at Spear's Restaurant & Pie Shoppe, 4323 W. Maple
2020-12-03 18:30 - 20:00
Reserved. Perhaps we should have gone to the Red Roof Inn since it’s National Roof Over Your Head Day, however I wanted a slice of free pie, so we’re going to Spear’s again instead.

Breakfast Boys Club at New Neighbor's Bar & Grill 2315 W. 21st St. N.
2020-12-05 09:00 - 10:00

2020-12-05 13:30 - 15:30
Seneca Bowl has a tournament going on this and next weekend. And West Acres starts Cosmic Bowling at 3:30 PM. So, we’re going to start early and try to get out before Cosmic Bowling starts.

Lunch With The Boys at Cheddar’s, 535 S. Ridge Road
2020-12-11 11:30 - 13:00
It’s Have A Bagel Day and Noodle Ring Day, however, I think we can do better than that at Cheddar’s. Cheddars doesn’t take reservations, so whoever gets there first ask for a table of six to eight. You’ll find their menu at: www.cheddars.com/menu-listing/chicken#.

Board Meeting at Riverside Cafe, 739 W. 13th St. N.

Reserved and expected. Instead of Roast Chestnuts Day, why not bring your hot nuts and have dinner with us as we discuss future events and club business. It’s also International Monkey Day and I’m going to let you make your own jokes about that!
