POT LUCK CAME BACK TO THE CLUB:Hello all: Well, the pot luck supper is over! It was a good night, lots of good food and with a total of 37 people in attendance, it was an enjoyable evening. Mike Tanchin made last minute surprise entree, a grouse-curry dish in the club kitchen that was wonderful. Thank you Mike for that treat.
Thanks to Dan and Pam Simmons, Allan Swentusky, Lisa Storey, and Peg Hartmann for helping set up the room, organize the attendees pot luck offerings, and also for setting up the plates, utensils and generally get the club ready for the attendees.
Cecilia opened up the evening with a few words and while everyone was eating desert, finished evening with general information about the club and what is going on in the near future. Thank you Ceci.
Also the clean up went extremely well, with many hands taking care of business. Theresa Trudell, Jim Jones, Mike Kellam, Mike Tanchin, Allan Swentusky, Lisa Storey, Dan and Pam Simmons and Peg Hartmann helping out to put the club back to the way it was before we started the pot luck.
My apology if I missed anyone. The clean up went so fast that I could have missed someone. I did fail to take pictures. Someone even reminded me (T)....but I still forgot! Next I will appoint an official photographer. LOL
Our next pot-luck will be on December 2nd @ 7 PM, with socializing starting at 6 PM. Stay tuned for upcoming information.
Welcome our new members: Garvin Burl, Thomas Cleator, Andrew Cook, Shawn Fredericks, Michael Gagnon, Mark Houck, Ives Mccarty, Michael Petitpas & David Webb.

Trudeau Big Buck Contest: Claude volunteered to be chair for this year. Those who wish to enter need to register prior to the season opening. Don’t forget the lucky buck – we put all entrants into a “hat” and pull a name. This is the lucky buck winner. So you can still be a winner, even if you don’t get a buck.

Survey: These are coming in slowly. We will need your survey returned by October 31, results will be in November Newsletter.
