The Annual Picnic and Return of Pétanque

Joy to the world!  After cancelling the picnic along with just about everything else in 2020, normalcy returned as the gang – all vaccinated – gathered once again at Gateway Park for our May picnic. Organizers Joe and Diana ensured the always highly competitive Pétanque tournament – aka the game of boules – would be held! Those who don’t take part in our club game get to eat, drink, and be merry… rarely watching the tournament. Photos by June, Carol, and Gary.

Not many spectators were interested enough to watch the tournament

It seems like even prayer didn’t help these “Losers” turn into “Winners”

The BBQ man had his own set of challenges getting the grill ready

Then there were those who just came for the food
