LCC Holiday Party

Hello LCC members,

The holiday meeting was a packed house with  about 70 members in attendance. We had great food and a sideshow presentation by Jeff Ornstein of photos from his Yellow Stone trip.

A big thank you to Charles Gilbert, Walter Schoellnast and the LCC board members that helped put the party together.

If you were unable to make it down there today and would like to add your images please talk with Jeff at a club meeting to schedule a time.

Currently there are approximately 43 images on display.
