Shiver me timbers, Oh what a night, on Dec 14 FCMC we had our annual Christmas party at Tucker’s in New Albany. This year our theme was Pirates and boy did we have some pretty awesome Scallywags and Wenches. Most everyone dressed up this year, our best Scallywag costume went to Kamos and the best Wench went to Heather, congratulations to both of you on your great costumes. After a buffet dinner of “what else but” fish and chips, chicken fingers, mac and cheese, salad and your favorite beverages we played the games. First off was The Wenches guessing game led hosted by Nancy, where they had to identify car parts, won by Heather. After the Wenches were thru it was the Scallywags turn, this game was lead by Brenda where the Scallywags had to identify things from the kitchen and sewing items, Scott won this game, correctly guessing 14 out of 20 items. And Steve’s all time favorite, “The Not So Newlywed Game, which was pretty funny considering some of the questions he asked, but I won’t get into that!! Jason and Jessica won this game hands down. The grand finally game as usual was the “Chinese Gift Exchange”, which by the way got really cut throat with people stealing each other gift, but I guess after we were Pirates. One thing you can’t say is we have boring parties. If you missed it this year you missed a really great time. Mark your calendars for next year’s party Dec 12 2020 and just a little hint, the theme to next year party is “Elf” so start planning your costume for next year. Hope to see you there.

On Dec 3rd FCMC helped the FOP #99 with their Cops For Kids shopping spree. Each one who volunteered took one child thru Meijer to pick out clothes, shoes, coats and a few toys. After shopping we transported our children across the street to Northside Christian Church for pizza, drinks and some fun on bouncy houses and playing in the gym.

We ended up back at Steve and Nancy's house for a cook out. Later that evening a few of us sat around to see the Space Station travel overhead........Steve

The FCMC annual Breakfast and Poker Run was on July 20th. We started off with a delicious breakfast at the Clegg’s house and our first card draw. Leaving out we traveled thru the back roads heading north. Our first stop was at the Pioneer Village General Store for another card draw and bathroom break; from there we made another stop at The Old Home Place, a craft and candle store for the ladies. Our next stop was at Freeman Field Air Museum in Seymour for a history lesson on Freeman Field during the war and a card draw. Back in the cars again we traveled to the Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge for a card draw from there we went to the Hayden Museum in Hayden IN where we drew another card and had a photo opt at the Old Gas Station. Our final stop and card draw was at the Bonanza Steakhouse in Seymour where the poker hands and trivia questions prizes were given out. If you missed this one hope you will be able to come next year, this was the biggest one so far with 21 cars and 44 people even though it was the hottest day of the year.

Steve and Nancy had a cookout at their home on June 15th so we all could fill goody bags and assemble the trophies. We had around 30 members to help so it didn’t take long on either project. And afterwards Steve fired up the grill with Brandon and Marty’s help they grilled burgers, hot dogs, brats and deer meat a fantastic meal!
