everyone again after no meetings for two weeks. I understand there was
an interclub with the Golden K club on December 31. In fact Rick
Nisley was sporting the Golden K’s bell. It was a good thing it was
here as our bell seemed to have disappeared while we were gone.

prayer was lead by Orville Boge. The song of the day was America, The
Beautiful.
Mary Dunder brought the joke of the day. It had to do with
attorneys and tall grass. The thought for the day was presented by an
attorney, Larry Beckner. His thought sounded like a joke. You needed
to be here to appreciate either. The mystery greeter was Brad Krebill.
He said Steve Katz won the pot.

engagement. Rick Nisley brought a buck to read a newspaper article.
Heidi Pankow went to Phoenix and decide how thankful she is not to
