On July 17th, the Satellite Beach Peggers (cribbage players) celebrated the 88th birthday of our leader, Jerry Nordling with a surprise party at the Neptune Restaurant. It was just over a year ago that Jerry and Paul Cribb started to play cribbage on Thursday mornings, and one by one, new players joined. Jerry then started a cribbage class which blossomed into an ongoing cribbage group. Now the group has between 10 and 12 players playing on Wednesday evenings and almost that many on Thursday mornings. Those attending this celebration were Mike Gibson, Carol Hammack, Laverne Johnson, Claudia Robbins, Lisa & Bernie Harland, Vernell Santa Maria, Gloria Tribou, Patrick Gilkey, Olga Clarke, Betty Boman, Barbara Hessler and Peggy Parker. We were sorry to miss one of Jerry’s newest players, Jacqueline Duncan, who couldn’t make it due to a work schedule. Jerry has plans for a new cribbage class in September at the Palm Bay library. Contact Jerry for more information, 321/777-3460.
