FROM BEHIND THE GAVEL

Hello Ladies

I hope you are all staying warm!!  I want to say a huge thank you to Maureen and Deb for running the last meeting!

This will be a busy month coming up!  Oct. 30th is finding to be difficult.  Three events in one day and unfortunately only one of me!!!  Dont say Thank God too loud!!   J   I know some of you are going to the leadership forum.  I am going help with the peace poster judging.  We are going to have the miss Thanksgiving for Vision this year.

Lion Ross withdrew as candidate for international office.  So we dont have to go to Chicago. Maybe we can go to the Convention when it is in Minneapolis.

We have the Diabetic Expo and the Zone Dinner coming up in November.

Sincerely,
President Tracy Braaten
