We held our last meeting before the summer break last night at the Hampton Inn, 51 Fashion Drive, East Point Shopping Centre. Eighteen members showed up. There was a lively round of horse-trading in the lobby while we waited for the room to become available and then we started with a meal of chicken-balls and rice, a couple of different types of pizza and a great "sweets" tray.
After everyone had more or less finished eating, the business meeting started, the minutes from the previous meeting were accepted, then Tom gave the financial report. Next came the fifty-fifty draw with Dave W. winning again. I think the prize was $43. The fifty-fifty draw was followed by the attendance/door prize and that was won by Michel.
Jim J. started the quiz by announcing that everyone that got at least 6 answers correct would win a prize. As it turned out, that was only 3 people, with Steve M coming first and then Paul C and Jim Y. Prizes were donated by Jim J.
We had our usual fun auction in two parts, the private auction and the club auction. There was a lot of great stuff in both.
The evening wound down with some socializing and clean up. Our next meeting will be on September 24th, Hope to see you all there!
