St. Catherine of Siena Men's Club
In our 36th year of Service and Support


 

November 2002

Well one down and two to go.  The St. Catherine of Siena 2002 fair is now over.  What a great turn out.  It was really great to see a lot of new faces coming out and working to get things set up and taken down.  Everyone was concerned about the construction; it turns out it was a blessing in disguise; it looks like we will be keeping the lay out just like it is; the flow was great.   The Road Kill Booth had record sales again this year; great job Roy!  There are so many people to thank, I can not even start naming names.  Thanks to everyone who came out to help, and if you could not make it maybe we will see you at the next event.  Todd Roser did a great job organizing the set up of the fair; many thanks Todd!   

  Our next two big events will be the $10,000.00 Raffle and Jazz Festival.  These two events make up the biggest portion of next year’s budget.  We really need everyone to come together and support these events.

Get your raffle ticket early, get three extra tickets and bring them to work and start some pool (cow) tickets

  Membership is up around 240, still a ways to go for our goal of 300.  Bring a new member to the meeting; lets get that magic number.  Remember to bring your membership cards to the November meeting.  The clubs by-laws require a 100% membership check at the October meeting.  Since our October meeting was the hurricane meeting we will be checking for membership this meeting.  We will have a table set up to check cards.  If you have paid and not received you card Don Wheat will have them at the meeting.  If you have not paid he will collect and issue you your card.   We apologize in advance if we get anybody angry when we check for cards but it is in the by-laws. 

  The year is now in full swing.  Check the newsletter for all the upcoming events.  Membership, Membership, Membership, Participation, Participation, Participation, these two things go hand in hand.  Please come out and have some fun and help St. Catherine grow.  It’s up to us to keep our school and parish strong.  It was really great to see all the participation at the Fair.  Our school and parish appreciate it. Thanks to everyone!!!!!!!!! 

  See you in November

Remember,  WE WORK HARD, PLAY HARD, AND PRAY HARD.
