Gina Marie's Pizza Party

Our meeting on the 17^th was a pizza party emceed by Tim “Striped Shirt” Litfin.

Bayview wisely had our meeting set up in the lower room because of fears of possible cleanup problems. The people from Gina Marie’s Pizza brought in pizza dough – one for each of the members. We then were given a number of tasks to do: make a 14” circle, shape the dough like a heart, and toss the dough between two members. Each of the tasks was in the form of a contest, and gift certificates were given to the winners.

 

Gina Marie’s was represented by the owner and an employee who gave us some general stat about the pizza business. For example, there are 3 billion pizza sold in the US annually. The worldwide total is 5 billion.  Gina Marie’s is not a franchise store; it is locally owned, has 4 shops, and was established in 1980. The two closest shops are in Chanhassen and in the Glen Lake area.
