The Seacoast E-Weekly

The December 23rd Club Meeting was called to order at 7:05am by Club President-Elect Dave Burke. Members present were: Dave, Carolyn, Gordon, Norm, Laura M, Pastor Dave, John B, Molly and Frank.

Dave paid a hefty fine for having his picture in the newspaper recently at the opening of a cafe in South Berwick.

Copies of the new club directory were handed out.

Carolyn talked about the club holiday party that she will be hosting next Wednesday evening.

Norm, Molly, and Carolyn spoke about the bellringing for the Salvation Army at the Portsmouth Wal-Mart last Saturday. The club collected a total of $668.10 for the day.

Frank reported that he purchased 12 turkeys with funds donated by members and delivered them to the Salvation Army last week for their Holiday Food Baskets.

Dave reminded everyone of the January 31st deadline for the early bird rate for the International Convention in Las Vega sin June.

Frank got a  chance at the 50/50 jackpot and picked the nine of spades and won $7. The jackpot of $144.50 rolls over to the next meeting.

The meeting concluded with a round of Happy Dollars and some inspirational holiday thoughts from President-Elect Dave. The meeting was adjourned at 7:46am.
