Club Members and Friends,
I've made a few changes to the Bulletin. For those that receive it via
Email, I've tried to make it a little easier to read by adjusting the
font and colors. For those few that are are receiving it via the US
Postal service, the same changes will use less black ink!
The goal is to put out a Bulletin prior to each meeting, but sometimes
that just doesn't work out. Due to the fact that I've missed a couple
of Bulletins and my schedule next weekend I'm sending this one out a
week early.
Please
note that we are doing an in house type of fundraiser, by having a pot
luck dinner at Janets House in lieu of the next meeting.
|
Make a note that the Jun 10 Club Meeting will be a Pot Luck, Fundraiser.
The clubs past two Hot Dog and Hamburger fundraisers barely broke
even, leaving our budget a little short of meeting our goals.
With the number of volunteers and the hours spent, we've decided to try
and raise a little money by having the pot luck. All members are
being asked to bring a dish of their choosing , and bring their own
drinks and utinsils. Additionally, each person is being asked for a
donation of between $10 - $20. More you are feeling generous!
Basically , how much would you have spent going out.
Since we will still be having a program, the meeting time has been moved up to 6:00 pm Please arrive at 5:45 pm, so that we can start the meeting on time.

Janet's
address is 3060 Dividing Creek Dr, Sarasota. If you haven't already
signed up to bring a dish, please contact Janet to see what is
still needed, 365-0376.
