Coming up on Saturday, December 13th is our famous pot-luck Thank-Goodness-It&#8217;s-Over Party (TGIO); we hope to have a good turn-out for that. Come join us whether you won, [...]]]></description>

Speaking of fun, the all-Illinois write-in on Saturday was great! During the first word war, [...]]]></description>
