NOR-CAL NARPI news April/May 2016 Paul Wilhelmus, President, 925-370-1023 Al Dockus, Vice President 415-576-1819 Bill Kienzle, Secretary 925-778-7936 Bob Dower, Treasurer 415-584-1166 Paul Wilhelmus, President For most of us, it was a beautiful day for a drive to the coast. For others, such as Al, the coincidence that our April luncheon occurred on the same day the Giants, A's, Warriors and Sharks played caused traffic to be less than ideal. However, the final destination, Cameron's Inn Pub and Restaurant certainly justified the effort.

2 For many of us, it was our first visit and quite a surprise to discover an authentic English pub in Half Moon Bay, CA. Lunch was served in a unique setting with antiques, memorabilia and a collection of 2,000 beer cans. We had a nice turnout and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Many thanks to Kathy and Terry Paramore for introducing us to such a unique experience. Bob Dower didn't have the exact numbers of the Chapter's financial status' but reported that since the last luncheon, the status had only changed a few cents. Bob assured everyone there is still money in the accounts, so we could all sleep soundly. A show of hands confirmed quite a few members will be attending the Las Vegas Reunion.

3 As an added incentive, it was agreed we would send the remaining NARPI polo shirts to the reunion to be given away as they deem appropriate. (After emailing Tom Buggie about our proposal, I mailed the shirts to him last week.)
