Pitch Night at Mike & Joe’s, 921 N. Bebe
2022-04-06 19:00 - 22:00 (America/Chicago)
What a great mash up! It’s Tartan Day, National Walking Day, Sorry Charlie Day and Plan Your Epitaph Day. It takes a very brave man to walk around in a Tartan kilt on a breezy April Kansas day. Of course, all it takes is one stiff gust and it’s Sorry Charlie, and your epitaph will read, He Died of Embarrassment. Or you can play cards with us, Pitch or UNO. And you’re welcome to bring your favorite snacks, like Hostess Twinkies (Day) and (National) Caramel Popcorn (Day) to add to our favorite snacks and beverages bar. Don’t forget your kilt.

Oh my goodness! It’s National Cheese Fondue Day and National Eight Track Tape Day, now those were the days, my friend. We thought they would never end, like our board meetings.

Potluck/Business Meeting at Hilltop Manor Clubhouse, 1411 S. Oliver.
2022-04-16 18:30 - 20:00
Reserved. Although it’s Mushroom Day and National Eggs Benedict Day, Spring weather can still be a little iffy. That’s why I’m leaning more towards a Soup or Salad theme. If it’s cold, bring a soup, and if it’s warm, bring a salad. “Soup” can be a stew or a chili or even a casserole. And “Salad” can be a green salad, ham salad or a chicken salad, you decide. It’s also Husband Appreciation Day, so don’t forget the desserts, like Jello Salad. And with any luck, we’ll have a surprise guest speaker. Well, it’ll be a surprise,if he makes it.

Pitch Night at Tracy’s, 2914 Grail
2022-04-20 19:00 - 22:00
I thought Look Alike Day meant that we should look like someone else. Like I wished that Kyle looked like Al Parker, although he did come very close when we were young. Anyway, while you’re contemplating what to bring to add to our favorite snacks and beverages bar, remember it’s National Pineapple Upside Down Day. Just remember to hold it from the bottom.
