NOTICES:
 
As you've undoubtedly noticed, there has been a delay in getting out the membership notices.  We're working on it though.  When it arrives, please take a moment and return it promptly.
 
The standing list has been started.  If you are on it, please note that we need you to call in if you cannot make it.  Again, for those who may not know, the club must call in the number of required dinners each week, and this is done the Tuesday morning before the meeting.  If you know you will likely make most Wednesdays, then please sign up on the standing list and we will assume you are coming.  OTHERWISE, YOU MUST CALL IN EACH WEEK BEFORE TUESDAY TO RESERVE YOUR DINNER.  The reservation number is 332-5999.  And remember that we must pay for uneaten, but ordered meals, and that if we don't know that you're coming, we may not have a meal for you.
 
Bob Schumacher still has plenty of Entertainment coupon books.  If interested in one, please see him.
 
It's never to early to think about the Turkey Raffle.  If you have gift ideas or are willing to help solicit gifts, please see Mr. Kenny Zemlicka.
