SMART Cajuns This year for the first time, the Cajuns decided to muster after the Thanksgiving holidays and had somuch fun; they are considering doing this again. Charles and Dianne LeBlanc, hosts of this muster, greeted about 28 rigs at LakeviewRV in Livingston, LA and provided bountiful meals, games, opportunities for socializing, nice door prizes and a great projectfor donations of our 50/50 raffle and silent auctions. The weather did not want to cooperate, so the Cajuns played their bean bagtoss tournament inside the club house, and it did not stop them from having fun. The turkey cooking in the fryers and the cooking ofthe seafood gumbo was still managed by Charles LeBlanc and Lee Fontenot underneath the club house pavilion. As usual the Cajunsdid not go hungry. Our first night of the muster had guests Tommy Jarreau, Commander of the Purple Heart Order, MikeMcNaughton, Outreach Director of the Louisiana Veteran Affairs, and Larry Hess, one of the organizers of Support Our War Heroes.The Cajuns, once hearing Larry speak about the efforts to help our veterans in the Louisiana and Mississippi area, voted atthe business meeting to donate $685 to this organization. This was a combination of the 50/50 raffle, silent auctions, and personaldonations. The Cajuns also voted to send $100 to SMART HQ to help balance the budget and while in a generous mood, the memberspassed a hat around to collect donations for the two staff members to receive Christmas gift cards. The January, <strong>2012</strong> musterwill again be in San Marcos, TX at the Canyon Trails RV Resort with many of the Cajuns traveling down into the Valley where theywill stay at the VIP La Feria West RV Park for about two weeks. This is a no-host muster and those Cajuns who are members ingood standing will not have to pay a muster fee. There will be a February muster in Rayne, LA hosted by the widows and widowersof the SMART Cajuns.Charles Le-Blanc holdingfried turkeywith Bill BlansfieldholdinglidCompetitorsin the beanbag tossgame atLivingstonDenny Olvany, LarrySockwell, LarryPousson, TommyJarreau, Larry Hessand wife, ChuckKuzmaIn Memory of…..Our Deepest Sympathy goes outto the families of:A.C.
