Once again our meeting was opened on time (7:00 a.m.) by Pres. Alan. Jack Franklin led us in the flag salute followed by the invocation by Wally Johnston. (The year to remember is 1921).
After the bell two folks arrived a little late. It was great to see Barry and Joe dig for their coins.
Wally Johnston will be retiring from the Sherwood Police force as chaplain on December 10. Congratulations Wally.
Gary Mahone was the winner of today’s raffle. Let’s see, April, how much was the pot? I believe it was around $50.00 so don’t let him tell you it was only $8.00.
This coming Monday is our Board Meeting. The meeting is held at the Beaverton Resource Center – starting time is 6:30 p.m. All club members are invited and the meeting lasts 1-1/2 hours.
This day in history, 1921, General Motors engineers discovered that if you blended lead into gasoline, car engines would run quieter – stops engine noise. See what you can learn by attending our breakfast meetings, and without a speaker of the day.
Coming up next week is our annual Christmas Breakfast and gift exchange. Bring a wrapped gift and join in on the fun of trading and hiding. Don’t forget, bring a guest.
Next up on December 23 we will have the new and old scoutmasters as our speaker. This is a great time to be a part of the scout troop we have sponsored for years.
Birthdays: Last week this writer missed announcing Alan Z’s birthday (retraction). This week we honored two, Francis Mijo and Bob Primrose. Thank you all for the great singing. On December 12 there is another big birthday, Jim Cates. It would really be nice if we could see Jim and Sharon at our Christmas party and we could sing to Jim. (If the price is right)
Please try to join us each week. This week as we did not have a speaker so there came the jokes. (one groaner) So you see we do have a good time anyway. See you next week.
Until then…..
