NFOA 70th Anniversary Party
This year is NFOA's 70th anniversary, commencing in 1940 as the Ken-Ton Officials Association. On Sunday, August 22nd, we celebrated this milestone. The party was held at the NOCO Pavilion located in Sheridan Park, on Ensminger Road. There was great food, plenty of drinks, a 50-50 split club raffle and a Chinese auction. We played horseshoes, bocce, corn hole (bean bag toss) and Kan-jam.
See some photos from the party by clicking on "Albums" in the left side column.
