If anyone has comments, relay to Bill or Bernice or at the end of this week they become members.  Joe slid in under the radar several years ago, and now he’s ours.  For life.  Think about it.
 
 
Thank-you's
Thanks to those who sold wine tickets.  Steve Morin reminded folks about the event, which is January 30 from 6:30 to 8:30 at the Pepperell Mill Campus next to Portland Pie.  A liquor license has been secured.  Need help selling tickets and with silent auction items.  Steve distributed a set-up/clean-up and pouring sign-up sheet.  Bill ridiculed Steve for the quality of his homemade sign-up sheet.  Will it build good will and better friendships, Bill?
 
Jackson Browne reminded folks that next week is the kick-off for the auction.  He also said something about a planning meeting, but I was busy taking a swig from the flask in my coat pocket, so I missed the details.
 
Special thanks to Laurie Jo for cleaning up our accounting and finances.  It has been a “cluster” up until now, said Bill.
 
Jim Godbout thanked Mark and Pierre and Jim and Sarah for helping to clean up at the Rotary House this past Saturday.  There is a lot more clean-up to be done this Saturday from 9-noonish.  Bill blasted on Pierre for his bald head.  Will it build good will and better friendships, Bill?  Still working with Keith to sure up the legal status of the property to get a roof put on.
 
Jim also shared that the Red Ribbon meeting is February 5th with teachers, and Rotary group will convene immediately after.
