WVURA Annual Picnic

Retirees enjoyed our sixth annual picnic and had a nice time renewing acquaintances and making new ones (ask Rudy Almasy and Carolyn Nelson front and center).  We got lots of compliments on the food.  There were giveaways and a raffle on WVU gear.  It was a beautiful day.  It started out cloudy but ended up sunny and the rain held off until after the picnic.  
If you missed it, you missed a good time.

Hotel California - The Original Eagles Tribute Band

Retirees traveled to the Palace Theatre in Greensburg PA to hear Hotel California.  When the Eagles stopped to catch their breath a few decades ago, Hotel California began their journey as a tribute band.  The easy-going warmth that comes from the band onstage exemplifies the Southern California sound of the 1970s. The band was excellent! If you closed your eyes, you were right back there.
