Announcements

Greetings from the Prez . . .

We had another fantastic meeting last week. Excellent speaker Suzana Gal from the Consumer Fraud Division of the District Attorney's Office, had some great stories to tell.

This week, Susan Schick from the SJ Redevelopment Agency will be our guest. If you ever wanted to know where your City tax dollars are going, now is the time to ask. Bring a guest. We want another big turnout like last week. Diane Lopez is the Captain of the Day, please review the Captain's Duties from our last issue of the Exciter. Harold Wray is Finemaster. I am requesting Jim Gunderson to be Invocator in place of Lori Formusa.

Blue & Gold preparations are nearing the end. Elaine Alquist made a $100.00 donation to the program. We also received a donation from Mr. and Mrs. Ron Bell, parents of Scott Greenly who received the award posthumously in 1990.

There will be no lunch meeting on the 25th. The banquet on the 28th will be our meeting for that week. Be sure to bring a guest to this great event.

Bernie Mill is Captain of the Day the following March 4. Please contact Ursula or Jerry about scheduling for that day
