Does anyone here remember when a small boy fell from the high board at the club pool? He missed the water and landed on the concrete. As it turned out the only part injured was his pride. I was that little boy. (Message edited by oldbones on November 10, 2007) | ||

Welcome, Oldbones. I heard that story. Any of those old bones still suffering? http://farm3.static.flickr.com /2301/1848691170_0e6edce2f7_b. jpg | ||

Nah, The bones are fine. Thank you for asking. If you research Thursday, July 20th 1961, of the Grosse Pointe News, you will find the story on page fifteen. | ||

from the grosse pointe observer, july 20, 1961: mildred cuthbertson hosted a gala affair at her estate overlooking the country club of detroit. the guests were regaled by ms. winifred tinsley, tenor extrodinaire, and english cousin of the cuthbertsons. mdme. tinsley treated the attendees to an exquisite assortment featuring the best of britain's teas, cheeses, and caviars. (mrs. constance blakeford remarked that she'd experience the most divine cotswold ever!) an unexplained loud thud was reported heard near the country club pool, but it did not interrupt a spirited canasta tournament won by molly latham, well-know in local card-playing circles.

Say Goblue, did you know T. Peters or H. Hilgendorf who may have worked there at the same time you did? I have worked with them both at the city. Fine job on the research Mikeg and Thecarl. | ||

Bulletmagnet: Was that a Tom Peters? That name sort of rings a bell....don't recall any Hilgendorf though. If it was Tom Peters was he a Denby Tar? |
