The 2008 annual club picnic was held in Stephenson Park, in Edmond on Septermber 13, 2008. It was a rainy day but the shelter house functioned well and even though it was a little gloomy for carving, a good day was had by all in attendance. there were 24 in attendance. The picnic part, always the high light, was enjoyed by all. The most popular dish may have been a desert from Jean Hooper, wife of Dr. James Hooper. At least it got the most "can I have the recipe?", requests. So, here, courtesy of the Hoopers, is the recipe......
1 - 16oz. Kool Whip, 2pkg. 8oz Cream Cheese, 1 Cup Powdered Sugar, 1/2 Lemon Squeezed, Cherry Pie filling, Graham Carcker Crust, Mix KoolWhip & Cream Cheese, Add sugar and Lemon Juice.
