a few thin spots in the line-up and volunteers picking up extra

Diamond Anniversary
V.P. Larry Murphy has a list of potential advertisers for our
Citizen 75th anniversary supplement. As ads need to be
turned in by the end of March, we don't have a lot of time to
get out and solicit. Rates run from $200 for a full page to $25
for a sixteenth of a page.
RiF It
Chair Joe Adrignola passed around the sign-up one last time before
our club's appearance at Elm St. and Pleasant St. Schools on
Wednesday, March 6. Volunteers are needed to stamp and distribute
books and to read to students. Signed-up at Elm St. from 1p-3p
are Joe Adrignola, Nancy Parrott, Nate Robertson, Kathy Calvin,
and Chet Cilley; Pleasant St. School, 2p-3p are Don Nelson, John
Grocki, Randy Eifert, Joe Collie, and Jackie Bonafide. Our next
appearance will be at Woodland Heights School on March 27.

Chair Chet Cilley
reminds all that the Bike Rodeo committee will meet after next
week's regular meeting.
Guest Speakers
This writer thanked
all the members who have arranged program speakers and encourages
everyone to chip-in with their suggestions.
It's a challnge to find speakers as funny as our own members.
