DUES will be going up ~ We're told that unless we can recruit some new members, dues are going to have to be raised to $100. We have had two increases in meal cost and a recent increase from The Lincoln Center, all of which means more money from us. |
Brad Dusek told us that his wife gave birth to their THIRD child on December 3rd!!
Bradford A. Burns bragged that he fixed Ed Caffrey's garbage disposal a while back.
Frank Johnson had a brag for 41 years of marriage and 61 years of age . . . $101 contributed to the Sertoma Foundation.
Terry bragged on us for behaving well while Coach Kinard was in attendance a few weeks ago.
E. Scott bragged on all the people that actually went to the Boys and Girls Club Breakfast at the Ranch. He had boos for those who signed up but didn't go. He also talked about needing to recruit someone to help collect monies for the Flag Program. Any volunteers?
Nutter told us that there IS a winner for the Sertoma Bowl Pool ~ Jim just keeps forgetting to bring the money. The winner, Larry Scheinost, picking 24 out of 32 games! Apparently Ron (Chainsaw) Schmidt came in a close second (but no cigar!)
Chris MacDonald announced that we have about $27,000 in our coffers that will be given away soon.
It was also requested that those of you who are not current in your dues PAY UP! There are some members over a year behind. As mentioned above, our operating budget is pretty tight. As it stands, our quarterly shortfall is estimated to be $466, and that does not include other expenses such as the annual banquet, CC charges, or other activity expenses. If you owe, PAY!

Sertoma 2nd ANNUAL
(every
6
years)
GREAT
CHILI
COOK-OFF
Bowling at the Elks on the 24th, as well as the 2nd every-six-years chili cook-off. Call Dave Blomberg ~ 484-8124.
Bowlers-
We will start bowling around 3:30, so try to get there a little earlier. We can have 20 bowlers on the lanes at one time. At this time I believe the fee will be $2/per person per game. If you have your own equipment, please bring it as the Elks has only a limited amount of shoes and bowling balls.
Chili entrants--
Bring your favorite chili. Bring it in crock pots or pots that can be heated electrically. Randy Willard is going to provide for the judge/judges. We will have stations for red, green, and veggie/other chilis. (Kosher chili from Gary Ross).
We will be providing bowls, table service, salad, cheese, crackers, etc. (Jim Nutt did indicate he is bringing corn bread.) If you have a really specific need, however, (LIKE TORTILLAS) you'd better bring your own specialty stuff.
Drinks--
The Elks have a full bar service and drinks, soft or other, can be purchased from the bar. Mention that you want Elks prices.
Time-- +-5:30 for the chili cook-off.
Place-- Elks Lodge-- 140 E. Oak. Corner of Oak and Remington-- Just to the north of the city parking lot. The Elks will leave the north door of the building unlocked so we can just proceed downstairs to the chili room. The event will be downstairs through the bar area.
Non-bowlers are definitely invited to come down early and harass (interact) the bowlers. There are also some pool and snooker tables available for anyone that would want to play pool or snooker.
Any questions you can contact Randy Willard (the chili-cook-off specialist) or Dave Blomberg.

Somewhere near Rochester , New York , Ed set out to bag his buck at 5:30 a.m. By 11:30 a.m., he was exhausted and hungry--and still no buck. At 12 noon, the mighty hunter Ed guards the remains of his lunch while a passerby snaps a quiet photo while trying not to startle the deer with a belly laugh.  |
