It was a scary Halloween as a Clown with a honking nose, a one eyed Pirate, a suspected terrorist, a French maiden and Charlie Chaplin joined us today.  Pres. Webb delegated the Pledge to a politician ( Martens), a banker ( Sweeney)  lead the 4-way test, the honking clown (Pelz) lead us in the Boozo  Song,  and a French maiden ( suspected terrorists spouse), Lowe said a gebed (prayer).

ALERT !!  Sweeney has been empowered.  The new membership chair is forming his at large committee and no one will be spared.  No doubt we are in for some evening committee meetings around town!   

        

Make-ups   two half attempts for Bill and Lori in France = one makeup ? Sounds fair to all concerned since two Rotarians met !

Mystery Hand shaker-    a surprised Arvidson

Happy Dollars     Hargove for taking Jake Thoma on his first pheasant hunt,  Thoma for having Hargrove fill in on his manly man duties,  Arvidson for spending time with past exchange student Craig Butler, Lori Lowe for their trip to France, Bill for his airport strip search, Bartmann for his recovery and the flowers and emails, Newman for being back sooner and Sweeney for his daughter being paid for riding horses at Temple Farms.   

Fun & Frolics   -  Bykowski noted that Bill listed us as the Lions Club in the NW Herald,  and Terry tricked us into paying a Buck.

 

Program   , Rich Tobiasz – Spring Grove Fire Chief  explained  Story Telling to us and shared past history on the yearly festival in Spring Grove.   In honor of Halloween Rich told us a ghost story – Row 21 A and B  see article by Bill McLemore for more detail.  

50/50 Hargrove had the trick but didn’t win the $108 treat, so the bowl of candy increases.

Please email President Webb with your thoughts on how the Club should use the funds we have.
