Therefore thou art great, O Lord God;
for there is none like thee, and there is no God besides Thee
. . . 2 Sam. 7:22
Frank St. Charles called the meeting to
order and after the song and pledge yours truly gave the invocation.
Frank began with thanks for the turnout. We had 35 in attendance.
The question was asked whether it just happened or was a result
of the post card mailer that went out asking all to come to the
meeting. So we all gave Bob Rinear a hand for his efforts in
mailing the post cards.
Frank then asked for guests and Tom Reuter
introduced Jack Arkle a CPA and his second meeting. Dan Kip
then intro'd Scott See from the Salvation Army and his second
visit.
Our sick list reports from Ed Willig that
his son Fr. Jim is doing better after his treatments but there
is concern that the cancer is still persisting in the lungs.
Keep up the prayers for Fr. Jim Willig. Fred Mohr reported
that Dick Mather had a bit of a setback. Dick came in using a
walker, Fred reports they will be doing a sonogram to try and
determine the problem. Dick was in good spirits at the meeting.
And Frank reports his father is doing well going through dialysis.
Keeping up the good fight. Please pray for all of our members
for the best in continued good health!
Bob Rinear reported on the mentoring program.
Oyler still needs mentors as all third graders must read at
a certain level or they cannot go on to fourth grade. Only takes
a half hour and is well laid out for the mentor. Call Bob or
Greg Hockenberry for information. Monday thru Thursday from
8:30 to Noon is all it takes, a half-hour of your time. 244-3000
Bob also requested all members attend a Rose Bloom Boom meeting
on Thursday at 7:30pm
Jane Reuter reported that until further
notice the club, as part of our membership drive, would pay for
lunch for prospective new members. Jane also asked for an effort
by all to gain new members.
There was a break in the action while Gene
Simpkins told a joke in lieu of his eggs-for-us award. It was
a real yolk yolk Gene!
Bill Bigner asked for anyone who wants
an Entertainment book to order it, as we want to continue to
support the Delhi Riverview Kiwanis in their efforts as they
support us in ours. So get your Entertainment 2000 today and
enjoy some great discounts.
At this point there were some questions
about not getting bulletins. Well we need to know who wants
it by mail. If you do not have a computer of fax please advise
Kevin Kahny that you need mailed bulletins, all others will receive
by fax of Email.
NOTE: If you get this one late its my fault
I did not get it to Kevin until Saturday night.
Dan Kipp announced a successful interclub
with White Oak club. Next month we need different attendees.
Howard Zoellner will have budget meeting at 11am on prior to
Oct 31st meeting. We need a chairman for the caring committee
to stand in for Tina while she is on leave of absence. Let Frank
know of your interest. Please let Frank know of your ideas on
the past presidents luncheon. Do we need it fore all every year?
Just for the immediate what? Your thoughts please.
Glad Hands went to Wes Reynolds and Gene
Simpkins. Split the pot to Ed Willig. Ed then went into song
Singing in the rain accompanied by Tom White wonderful sounds.
We closed with (a) Smile. Carol Sohmer introduced our guest
from Cincinnati State, Veryl Stokes? Applause and comments during
the announcing of the guest covered the guests name and I was
unable to confirm.
So pardon the spelling if its wrong. He
is the head of computer Science department; he spoke on the co-op
program.
Thanks for the meeting see you next Tuesday
