New Business:
Sunshine Committee- Doug reported that Warren had quite an ordeal with his recent heart
surgery but it finally got done and he's recuperating fine. Thanked the Club for card and
prayers. Ronny Larson is waiting for surgery date at Mayo in Rochester. Keep her in thought
and prayers.
Our Christmas Party finally took place on January 13, delayed due to bad weather in December.
The gift exchange was lots of fun and the infamous vegetable peeler didn't appear to spoil the
fun! Toys for Tots did get to the kids thanks to Larry Schaefer finding the drop off spots for
members to use. Because we didn't make it to Rick's for lasagna the gift card we purchased is
unused. Rick has left the area for the winter and fortunately had not purchased any groceries
for the party. After discussion a raffle for the $150.00 gift card to Johnny's Italian Steak House
will be available for $10/chance for club members at the next meeting.
