Good morning everyone.

The Club’s fundraiser is less than four weeks away.  Please continue to bring auction items and wine to this week’s meeting.  We need every member to support this fundraiser to ensure our club can continue to fund the various community and international projects next year. I am asking that all members that have not picked up at least four tickets to sell to please attend this week’s meeting.  
 
District 6630 Annual Conference of Clubs was held this past weekend, April 21 – 23, 2017, at the Sheraton Suites, located at 1989 Front Street, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.  I want to thank those club members who attended the conference and particularly Larry Faulhaber for putting together the club’s display.  It looked great!
