TUIT REPORT

Nancy Ditges presented the most poetic and eloquent Tuit report in recent memory.

Tom Stanton and Keith Schroeder did well to ask about the Tuit.

Randy Henderson asked about the Tuit early, then offered

a Five for future infractions then explained the ins and outs of the Tuit.

When the Tuit was introduced to a relative, he remarked they dont do that at Civitans.

She talked to Brenda Janda on the phone, but Brenda failed to ask.

Lori Hopp failed to ask initially, but later remembered.

Nancy was explaining to an acquaintance what an AMBUC and TUIT were. The

acquaintance listened carefully and exclaimed I dated an SOB once, is that kind of the same.”

Nancy thought about it, and shook here head wryly.

Paul Brown managed to catch Nancy without the Tuit, that cost her.

Like a tornado to a trailer park,

Dennis Reiser

drew himself towards the Tuit again for a another week..

PROGRAM:

Randy Henderson introduced Rick Elliott and Justin Maxfield who displayed Tailey, the narcotics dog. Rick trained Tailey several years ago in preparation for drug detection assistance in a sheriffs department. When Taileys handler was activated for military duty, Rick was able to assist in placing Tailey with the Reno Co. Sheriffs Department on a temporary basis. Rick then trained Justin as a handler for Tailey. Tailey will be returned to northwest Kansas soon. The Reno County Sheriffs Department has secured funds to purchase a new dog.
