This week we are back to Bandemer for a round of Reds and a round of Whites (just let me know when you want me to throw in the Blues)

Three big winners last week. Anthony Vasquez won the Mystery CTP. In case you all forgot, last Thursday was the anniversary of the date the ballpoint pen was patented. Our very own Steve Nolff took home all the cash (that we had to offer). And John Wilson won the disc CTP.

This week, on Thursday is the date that Iceland gained its independence from Denmark in 1944. To celebrate, our Mystery (so much for the mystery) will feature Iceland. Everyone will get an Icelandic flag, while supplies last. And the CTP will have room for 5, count 'em, 5 winners!!! We were unsuccessful in connecting with a club from Iceland for the disc swag swap, but, we were able to put some stuff together.

I did do a (very) little research into how the folks in Iceland celebrate the day. A poetry recitation caught my eye. There is always a poetry recitation. So, the person who recites a poem at the end of the round will receive a few bonus points, point total to be determined. So get out the volumes of poetry that I know you have just laying around and get to memorizing. And, absolutely NOTHING that starts with "there once was a man.......... nope, can't let it happen.

It is also National Dairy Month and since no one brought cookies last week, well, you get another chance this week. Please. We're running out of weeks. And we still need to know who is in for the sundae bar on July 15th. Both the milk and the ice cream are courtesy of the United Dairy Industry of Michigan #milkmeansmore. Many thanks to that fine outfit.

That's it. Hope to see everyone at Bandemer. Thanks.
