Program Ideas
Posted on Sep 10, 2020

Jim Olmsted runs the speaker program. He’s provided us with a range of interesting speakers over the last few years, both flesh-and-blood and virtual. But Jim’s fertile mind could use some assistance in coming up with program topics and contacts. Who do you know that could present us with an interesting program … hobbies, company insights, sports, hunting, crazy collectors, you name it. The only exclusions are politics and speakers that just want to sell us something. Think about the people you know … neighbors, old/new friends, people at your office or social club. Do your ruminating and then send an email to Jim at jolmsted7562@gmail.com

 

Recruiting for Silent Auction 2021 Committee Members
Posted on Sep 17, 2020
Our silent auction committee had great success this year but in anticipation of an increased goal in 2021, we need a few more committee members to join us. Leo and Abby could use some help in getting out to the community’s shop owners for donations including more golf courses for foursomes and golf swag.
 
Ruth could use a couple of data entry people to help streamline the on-line auction set-up process. Deb and Jeannine need additional “creative types” to help create and wrap baskets and take pictures of the finished product.
 
Email your interest to any committee member. Thank you for your support!
 
Your Silent Auction Committee – Abby Benbow (abbybenbow@gmail.comm),
Deb Dieter (debragdieter@gmail.com),

I know you NEVER imagined it would happen, but our Club merited mention in the Sept/Oct issue of Driving Digest in a nice article about our very own Mary Ruth Marks. Our volunteer work at her event at Notara Farms is mentioned. Congrats to our Steel Magnolia. For more insights into this unique equine sport, check out http://www.drivingdigest.com/about-us
