President Dianne once again passed around the sign up sheet for the committees.
There is an open spot for chair of the membership committee. If interested, please
let Dianne know...but also remember that we are all on the membership committee.

Leadership
Training...
President Dianne let the club know of the next Kiwanis Leadership Training Session.
It is scheduled as part of the district convention in North Conway and a good
thing to do if you are on the board or one of the club's officers. This session
will be held in North Conway on November 16, 17, and 18. The leadership training
session is on Sunday, November 18th and should you be interested in attending,
please let Dianne know. She has all the paperwork. The club will reimburse your
expenses.
Welcome Aboard...
Denise Dow will be joining as a club member next week. Denise has been to the
the last couple of meetings and her membership has been approved by the
board. She will officially be sworn into Laconia Kiwanis next week.

Jim Fortier and Chet Cilley announced that they have obtained the paperwork
and will be exploring setting up a Builder's

Club is the middle school equivalent of Key Club. Good work Chet and Jim! More
to follow...

Jim Fortier thanked those who helped him in the snack shack at the recent Laconia
High School football game. They were Chet Cilley, Larry Murphy, and Kathy
