December 16, 2013 Meeting-Christmas Party 6:30 pm Starting Time


Seasons Greetings!

December 16th will be our annual Christmas Party.  The Club will purchase pizzas and everyone else brings whatever they want to share like cookies, chips or other holiday goodies.  Please bring your own non-alcoholic beverages.  There will be a short meeting for nominations of President and Vice President with voting immediately after the nominations.  Please email me or 
call me (244-9299) if you wish to put your name on the ballot for one of these positions.  The meeting and 
Christmas party starts at 6:30 pm instead of the normal 7:00 pm time.  We will have bid boards 
(silent auctions) on various coin/currency/hobby items being sold by club members.  If you are bringing any items to sell on the bid boards, please try to be there by 6:00 pm or earlier.  This is mainly just a social get-together.  Guests are always welcome.  In order to get a more accurate account of how many pizzas to order, I would appreciate reply confirmations, if possible, from any of you planning to attend and how many guests you might be bringing as well.  
Thanks!

KEN

PS:  Don’t forget to bring money along in case you plan to purchase anything on the bid boards!
