    Sadly, we would like to share that long time member and past Club President, Paul
Snipes, has passed. Please join us in honoring him on his last safari.
                         BEYOND THE REEF
Paul Snipes joined the Club in 1969 and sponsored many new members over the years and served as a former club president in addition to holding other offices. He was a keen photographer and founded the Zone XII Photography Club, which had quite a few members in common with the Adventurers' Club. Once his health began to fail, he moved to California to be nearer to his daughter and passed away on 1/27/23. To Paul, we bid you our hail & farewell...cheers dear friend, you will be missed.
"Beyond this Life, and beyond this strife,
To those who have bid adieu to Life,
What better message can we send?
Than, we will miss you, our good friend." ...by August L. Ahlf

"The Blessing of Swiss Grandkids"   

                             by member Terrilea Burnett

        Terrilea's love of travel was fostered during the 1970’s when her family lived in Guam for 4 (wonderful) years. Who knew that Japan, Asia and the Pacific Islands were just a short flight away. For $15, one could fly on a “mac” flight and bring home beautiful goods, even furniture. It was during this time that she learned the lifelong lesson that a smile is the universal language.
      After 3 years in Afghanistan following the war, Terrilea's daughter was relocated to the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. It was there that her two “Swiss grandkids” grew up. As a child, rereading "Heide" countless times, Terrilea never thought she would end up with free hotel, car, and family in this exquisitely beautiful country. This talk will focus on her adventures in Switzerland and nearby France.
