27 January, Saturday evening.  “All work and no play… is not the Auxiliary way!”  That’s not exactly how that bit of “poetry” originally was spoken, but here in St. Louis, fellowship reigns supreme.

NACO Steven Budar and the members of the National Bridge personally greeted every attendee who cared to come up to the hotel’s penthouse and join in the good food, festivities and fellowship.

The social gathering was a great way to swap business cards and cement new friendships that were made over the weekend.

“The training sessions were intense and satisfying.  I picked up a lot of great stuff.  Now its great to lay back, relax and have a good time,” said COMO Bruce Takayama, DSO-VE Hawaii.
