Meeting:
This was a “Million $ Meal” at the home of
the Nuboer’s in order to boost our Club finances. As it was a party
there was a flag but no Salute to it. President Dietrich did welcome our
family and said with relief that the slate of Officers for the year
2006-2007 is now complete: President Suzanne Kavanagh, Secretary Bart
Nuboer, Treasurer Judy Rego, Sergeant at Arms Jim McInnes and Vice
President/ President Nominee Michael Johnson. (President Elect Suzanne did
promise Bart to take away all other tasks he has in the club today). Then
President Dietrich reported on the ”von Trapp concert” where proceeds
go to the Senior Center and Donna Green’s “Project Courage”. Robert
expanded on it and said that Donna’s paintings are part of the Christmas
decorations in the White House and Elisabeth von Trapp will sing a concert
there tomorrow. Of course we always knew they were excellent. The
fundraiser is now in full swing and we all must sell tickets: $25 for
adults and $10 for children, anywhere you can! Bart responded with
“Words of Wisdom” that have now become a tradition in our club and
collected money for a wheelchair via “The Wheelchair Foundation”. In
the meantime we all enjoyed wine and many different snacks and bites in
front of the woodstove and the artificial Xmastree from China which comes
lit up with many mini electric lights. Then Dennis Snyder reported on his
latest medical mission to

restaurant and brace the fresh winter air until the cause for the smoke
had been determined and been dealt with.
This did not dampen the Christmas spirit, as turkey
dinner was served after everybody had found their seat again and then
Santa Claus had his grand entrance! Gifts
