TUIT REPORT

Brad Thompson reported that until the ORIGINAL TUIT has been found, we can’t have a TUIT report.

PROGRAM:

The program for our meeting was hosted by the Big Hatters, with our own Dan Power presenting an interesting report of his trip to Alaska in September to hunt for mountain goat and brown bear. He was successful in bringing back both and gave a great presentation with slides and all. The bear’s head was broader than Dan’s shoulders. (Better beef up more the next time, Dan.)

The other was for former member Bob Horyena, whose wife died recently. Bob’s family has been hit by a lot of tragedy. This latest loss strikes deeply into their emotions. Let’s keep Vicki and Bob’s family in our prayers.
