Kiwanis
The Exeter Kiwanis club will be celebrating the Christmas season
with our annual dinner at the Exeter Country Club, December the
11th at 6pm. Please
come and help us celebrate the season. This would be a good time
to get that interclub in... Please send back a reply so I can
have the chef set a place for
you and your group. We'll toast the season and sing a carol or
two.
Cash bar 6-7pm
Christmas Turkey dinner with the fixings
To round out the evening a good old Yankee Swap (please bring
an appropriately wrapped gift - under $10 -for each person)

Membership
Membership Chair Joe Adrignola needs everyone to complete their
list of potential new member prospects and turn them back in.
Add your own businesses to the list as necessary and chose which
contacts you would like to make.
Out with the Old?
After some lively discussion on whether to continue using aprons
as part of the induction ceremony, Pres. Warren Mitchell suggested
that it be handled by the Membership Committee. It was also suggested
that we have a designated Greeter at each meeting.
Stay Tuned
Sec.'y Kathy Calvin reminded the club that she, Charlie St. Clair,
Chet Cilley, Joe Adrignola, and Paul Cotton will be representing
the club at the Santa Fund telethon on Tuesday, December 9, 8a-10a.
A Friend in Need...
V.P. Paul Cotton reports that he has been volunteering for the
Citizen Santa Fund, handing out clothing and other goods to those
in need. Each year they distribute over $100,000-worth of goods.
Anyone interested in helping out should just show up at the former
Cherry, Webb, & Touraine store on Main St., 2p-6:30p, Monday-Friday
