This month’s meeting will be December 21st at 7:00pm in the Parish Center.

The Christmas Party is over and the general consensus is that everyone attending had a good time. The food was good and it was a nice change of pace having it held somewhere other than the Parish Center. Our Man of the Year award was presented to Dave Misukanis during a break in the entertainment. There were a total of 47 people who attended.

In another note to do with the Christmas Party, we have a missing jacket alert. At the end of the party, Peter Seghieri discovered that someone had gone home with his leather jacket and left another in its place. If one of you wore a black leather jacket to the party, please check it to make sure that you have the right one. Peter’s missing jacket is a dark brown leather which almost looks black. If you have it, please call Peter at 651-488-3859 to make the swap.

At last month’s meeting we decided that we would do a food collection at meetings beginning in December. We ask that all members coming to the meeting bring a no-perishable food item which will be given to Keystone.

The Roast Beef Dinner will be held on Saturday, January 21st in the Parish Center. Serving time will be from 4pm to 7pm. We are anticipating getting some volunteer help from the Scouts for this event but we need Club volunteers also to help in the kitchen. Let us know at this month’s meeting if you can join us.

I have a supply of 2012 pocket calendars from the Holy Name Society. Please let me know if you need one at the meeting.

If you have any ideas for more Club events or activities, let us know. It is always fun to try new things. If you wish to receive a copy of the newsletter via e-mail, contact me at dakortek@ties2.net. See you Wednesday. Bring a friend. To those unable to attend the meeting, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
