Mark your calenders, elections for the 2010-2011 officers will be held at the regular meeting on Thursday, April 22.
A quorum of club members is required, members must be in good standing
in order to vote. The Nominating Committee has recommended the following:

The raising of annual club member dues
will be discussed and voted on at this same meeting. Due to the
increase of dues that are paid to Optimist International, the Directors
have recommended raising members dues up an to no more than an
additional $10 per year. This would regular make annual club member dues not
more then $65 (currently $55).

We'd
like to thank members of Zone 9 for making the trip down from St
Petersburg and visiting our Club at our last meeting, March 25th. The group included 3 past Governors and our current Zone 9 Lt Governor. Making the trip were Lt Governor Jim Ridings and his wife Jane, Chuck and Vi Hayworth, Downtown St Pete Club President Garner Harshman and his wife Moonie, Clide and June Boltz.
