A good number of DOGS took a hike earlier in the afternoon. You can look at Mike Cianco's photo album.
The party itself was very well attended and featured the usual excellent array of food. The Cates' house is a wonderful place to hold such an event. Barb Cate did her trademark tour and gifts of goodies to the women, which, as will be obvious from photos, included hats. Barb Flint and Neil McPhee "dropped in" from their new home in Asheville, NC. George and Linda bestowed gifts on those teams that led rides during the season. This year there was a choice of glasses, socks, or a free DOGS renewal.
