So turn out for the event, help out where you can and enjoy the competition. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Gary will be at the course at 6:30 and others helping out in the early stages of the event will assemble at 7:00. Golfers will check in shortly after with the objective of heading out to the various tees at about 8:45 with a tee time of 9:00. Gary has everything in hand, but there will be a need for most of us to help out in one way or another. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">There will be a $100 entry fee, carts $20 per person, mulligans $5.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">We will need 3 persons at the check-in table (Margaret, Mike and ___?), a person or persons manning the breakfast and coffee area (Leona and ____?), a person or persons manning the bloody mary and screwdriver booth (Jeff and ___?), a person or persons manning the grill on the 4th hole (Donna and ___?), a person or persons manning the charcuterie table on the 6th hole (no one yet), a person or persons manning the barbecue and. beer area (Mike and ___?) and a handicap person.

With 20 active members we should be able to get about 40 sponsors (each member to get two sponsors) so everybody lets get it done. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">We are pretty good on raffle prizes. None turned away, but do have a look and see what you could contribute. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Donna talked about her meeting with the Interact Club which had held their first event on Wednesday. It is the largest club in the school with 28 students. We provided pizza which was much appreciated and helped put the Interact Club on the map. The students talked of RYLA which was much appreciated by those who attended, ways in which they could work with us, projects in general and projects they could share with us which might include town trash pickup, a booth at a market in the park and a social event in the spring. The Interact Club will meet on first Wednesdays, once a month, with the next meeting being in November. This looks like an excellent beginning and we all thanked Donna for being there and providing her feedback on what seems an excellent beginning for the club. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">We meet next week to hear speakers on the marine resource center. The community services group will meet before the regular meeting, at 11:30. <br></div><div><br></div><div class="ydpad0d09d8signature">Jeff Stubbs<br>P.O.
