The Banquet

Many thanks to league management for planning such an excellent banquet at The Lantern in Lake Forest once again this year. It was clearly the social event of the holiday season on the North Shore. Expect to see some of these shots published on the society pages of your local Pioneer Press.

The awards were more impressive than ever.

Tom and Buddy D, two league stalwarts.

The Commish, LJ Hoke, addresses the sweaty gang of hoopsters.

Clearly in campaign mode, mayoral candidate Buddy Dinges delivers a stirring address.

The master of ceremonies, Tom McNulty, hands out one of the many coveted awards.

Steve Kuper relishes one of the most desired awards, a quality brew.
