Pat and her husband , Mike , moved to Charbonneau in December 2004 from Keizer . They wanted to be closer to their three children and four grandchildren ( her granddaughter Kate painted our mural in the men ’ s room , Yellow No . 3 . Spectacular )! She joined the Niners in 2009 and has served on many committees and as an officer many times as needed . How the time flies as she has helped with scrambles , couples events , dances with the Charbonnettes and performances in the skits . She ’ s been involved in many roles like treasurer for three years , co-vice president and copresident . She has co-chaired the Championship Tournament , and was on the Nominating Committee and involved with awards for the annual banquet as well as the Pink Ball Tournament .
