Minutes of July Meeting

13 July 2009

Birthday magic was the theme of our July meeting.
We celebrated the 90th birthday of compeer and Life Member #24, John Marenholtz.
Our president and host Angelo, put out a nice spread of hotdogs, burgers, potato salad and fries.  Members Dan Sclare, Rick St. Pierre, Angelo Chirico and our Dean Bob Killian performed birthday magic for John.  John received birthday cards and notes from our Regional VP Tucker Goodman, National Secretary Marlene Clark, our new National president Mike Miller, and the Dean of the SAM, George Schindler.  John also received cards from some of our members who could not attend. These included Soll Levine and our secretary Dana Ring.  (They were attending the National Convention in Buffalo.)
It would not be a party without cake, so we ended our birthday meeting by surprising John with a SAM birthday cake.  A magical time was had by all!
Happy birthday John!  “You do have friends in the SAM!”
- submitted by VP Dan Sclare, who has the thanks of Secretary Dana Ring.
