Announcements:
It is not too late to
sign up for the Rotary Friendship
Exchange to Australia in Nov. 25, 2012.
Please let me know if you are interested.
An “Office Communication”
from the General Manager, The Rotary Foundation, Mr. John T. Osterlund, was
received which reported the results of contributions for World Polio Day on October 24.
Without going into all the details, the results were quite satisfying,
achieving donations totaling more than $2,576,927.
Your Club is still
looking for a few members to be on the Salmon
Bake & BBQ Committee as well as two members to co-chair the Duck Derby. Please call me if you are interested in
supporting your Club in this way.
The annual Boys & Girls Club Dinner Auction is
this coming Saturday. Our Club has a
table reserved where 10 club members will be dining.
The announcement for the
annual Club Christmas Party has been
made. Please respond to Pat Zane if you
will be attending. The cost is $28 per
person to be paid to the Club’s treasurer or no later than arrival at the
event. Reservations must be received no
later than Dec. 1.
Program
of the Week:
Roger Padie,
Commander, VFW Post 4760, spoke of the many programs the Post has for the aid
of area veterans and community members at large. It is a very active post. For more information, please click on this

Next
week’s program: Our very own member, Ron
Farquhar, will make a presentation on a mainstay business in Sequim – J.C.
Penney.
Winners
and Losers(?):
Alice Roragen conducted the Foundation Raffle drawing which
was won by Merrill Roragen. However, he did not win the POT. It
continues to grow. In the interest of time, the Joke of the Day
and “Who Said That” as well as the Happy Bucks were postponed.
Thank you to all who attend Club
meetings and to those who participate in the weekly programs. Many hands make
light work!
And, that's how I saw it "From
the Front!"
President Dave.
