Next week club assembly: Senior Dinner, Fishing Derby, Scholarship
 
Interact after-school program discussed human trafficking awareness.  They have no bobhouse donated for fishing derby so will be selling beverages and snacks as a fundraiser.
 
 
Happy Dollars:  Betsey gave 10 for Jimmy Hughes and memories of watching him walk around town.  Also for Linda hart and dinner with her son.
Dean for the rest of the story regarding Jim McFarlin and the Yankee Swap.  The much coveted loon that Jim snatched from Dean at the last minute, he gave back to Dean after the swap was over so that Dean could give it to his grandson.
 Ann for “ice in”.  Erin letting everyone know about a soup and bread social at the community center, Sat. Jan. 26 at 11AM to get a library update and a chance to comment and ask questions of the trustees.  Kevin for his wife putting up with him for 39 years of marriage.  Rob for Jim Wallace’s recovery and for the New England Patriots to win on Sunday.  Chuck for snow, which ended up being worth $20. 
 
Program:  Dan discussed medicinal hemp.  After suffering with shoulder pain for years, he tried it and it brought him so much relief, he decided he wanted to sell the product.  Hemp only has .003% THC.  Calms down inflammation, helps you sleep as well as many other healthy benefits.  It is legal due to the Farm Bill.  When asked will it show up on a drug test, he replied that they have a product that does not show up, though it is not as strong.  If you are interested in learning more, go to https://www.hempworx.com/danlangan or you can call Dan  603630-3036.
