May 7, 2014

Is everyone starting to feel it? The reunion is now but a short 5 weeks from now and good ol summer is coming too! We are coming into the home stretch as far as putting everything together for the 40th weekend.

We have much to cover at the next meeting which is this Saturday May 10th starting at 6pm at the Odd Fellows block, 35 Pleasant St, 2nd floor, entrance in the rear of the building where Simply Comfort is located. I have added the agenda attached as a file for you all to review and think about. A lot is just verifying what has been done or will be done and some new items to be talked about. If anything is missing, just add it to your piece.


Hope we get a good turnout and can finalize a lot of things. Again, the food and beverages are byo or to share.
