Happy New Year

It’s hard to believe, but January is already half over. The first meeting of the year was packed as usual, and or next meeting will be January 26th.

As always, the clubhouse is open Saturdays from approximately 7:30AM until 12:00PM or whenever the XYLs send out the search parties.

As a reminder, a new year also means new dues. If you haven’t already turned in your renewal application (and thanks to everyone who already has), please plan on bringing it to the next meeting. Membership dues are unchanged from last year and are $36 for full membership, $18 for associates.
