"I cannot THANK you enough for the terrific time that we had at the Elks Lodge. We had 238 people attend our BBHS 2017 Reunion 1960-1975 and then some. Tommy was fantastic in accommodating us for the Saturday night. Dave the Bartender and his wife were superb. Our Classic Rock Band, The Odd Lot and all of us enjoyed ever minute of the Reunion and we danced until 10:30pm! Wow.. Such a treat for our Band to play again 51 years later at the Elks Club. Thanks again..."
