| Upon arrival at Rendezvous XVIII , I was given a surprise assignment by Jimmy Charles, WW6JC, to organize entertainment for the ladies only segment on hospitality night. I couldn’t resist, so I gathered my crew Mary Courtney (N3ZMU), Angela Faust, Gloria Moody (KB3SEL), and Barbara Lamb. I knew they wouldn’t let me down, so we went to work putting things together so all the ladies would enjoy themselves. In past years, whenever I planned for the ladies hospitality, Jean Monroe, our designated Rendezvous Chaplain, would give me the eye and say “OK Ellen!” She knew that sometimes I could get carried away, so I would smile and say OK, no surprises. I knew my guardian angel was watching me, so I had to keep it clean. When the group played the game “Hot Potato”, everyone was serious about not getting caught with the hot potato. When trying to pass the hot potato to the next player, they were so much into the game and trying to get rid of it, that Thelma McAllister (KB9DKM) took the opportunity to stand on a chair, and like a cheer leader and all in fun yelled “fight, hit her!” Everyone burst into laughter. Games were played, new friends were made, birthdays celebrated, gifts were won. And when the night was done, everyone had fun.” Warmest Regards, Ellen N. Wells, KB3NNM The cook out was excellent food, dancing and swimming the park was very good not to far from the hotel . The golf tournament was Friday June 18, played 18 holes felt like 36 it was hot, hot The overall winner was Thophles Williams Monroe's brother in law but he is not a ham so he will have come back next year.
