Friday Night at the Goose Club


We stopped by the Goose Club last Friday evening to enjoy hearing the crowd sing Karaoke with Charlene and Beth and also say hello to owner Carl Zagar behind the bar. I have a memory of "way back when" our mom used to call for a pizza "to go" from the Goose Club. Does anyone else remember those days?
