While the Chargers were playing a couple of miles away, the Unit hosted its annual Holiday Party at AIB. Traffic in the area didn't slow us down, and we ran 24.5 tables, including 6 full tables of 999er players. Grand winners in the Open game were Maritha Pottenger and Kent Hartman with a 64.97% game, and Lori Hamm Warner and Marvin Warner won the 999er game with a 60.58% score!

This was no usual game though. Most players joined us early for a beautiful spread catered by San Diego Catering. Roast beef, turkey and trimmings, salad, asparagus, mashed potatoes were just a few of the things that were offered, followed by a hospitality break mid-afternoon with cheesecake and a variety of scrumptious fruit sauces. Judging by the number of compliments received, the party was a success, thanks to the Unit Board's hard work. In keeping with the holiday spirit, there was a wine and poinsettias raffle, MC'ed by our beloved Director, Sebastian.

The Holiday Party marked the end of an era of unit games at the AIB location after 5 years of Sunday games two or three times a month! The next unit game will be held at the new AIB at 5939 Balboa Avenue, SD 92111. Join us there to start off the year on Jan 3rd, 2016.
