The spring-fed lakes were a perfect background for the colorfully attired picnickers to eat several hundred pounds of barbecue prepared by Arthur Etz, Eddie Kover of the Bull Pen Restaurant, Chris Sherri and Donomic Reca." Photograph caption reads, "Nearby resort - Mr. and Mrs. Eli Munz hosted nearly 300 people at big barbecue honoring County Grand Jurors, Superior Court Judges and peace officers.
