Bill Rogers wanted to fine Greg West and David Ross for not asking, but they could not be found.
The next best thing was to pass the TUIT to Bill Long.
What?! No Sgt. Tom! That leaves us with the allegedly cerebral Sgt. Scott Potucek and the demoted Asst. Sgt. Larry Sloan.
Doug F. was fined for fear of Fridays. Steve C. was fined for the botched Big Hat meeting notice (but it was a pretty color!). Jack was fined for being spammed … or being spam. Whatever! Bob B. was fined for not being spammed. Al S. and Jeff B. were fined for advertising for the Civitans. Randall H., Jeff F. and Darren W. were fined for being late.
And for the extra credit question: What do Pol Pot, Ho Chi Minh and the Freemen State Massacre all have in common? (See Scott P. for answer.)
Uh! Oh! … Hmmmmmm! I wonder who’ll be fined for this blank space.
Club Announcements
DONATIONS APPROVED: Upon the second reading and unanimous vote of the club, a mobility brace was approved for Regan Coulter at a cost of $779.00 and an AMTRYKE was approved for Sir Patrick Smith-Bruner.
ICE CREAM COMMITTEE: We are already soliciting volunteers to serve as managers and assistant managers for the 2006 Kansas State Fair. Call Jay Pitzer and tell him you are qualified! If you are interested but inexperienced, we will train you. The primary skill is a willingness to work; the rest is simple.
INSTALLATION BANQUET: June 2, 2006 at the Highlands. It is not too late to sign up for the Installation Banquet featuring a Bar-B-Q buffet. Swearing in of the new officers and thanking those who have served this past year will be part of the agenda. The club is subsidizing the dinner so it is only $12.50 per person plus drinks. Social time begins at 6:00 P.M. Dinner begins at 6:30 P.M.
MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE: Bob Bush announced that Mainstreet Menswear gift certificates were awarded to the following AMBUCS for accomplishments during Spring Roundup: Preston Clark-$35.00, Jay Pitzer-$10.00 and Fred Connor-$10.00.
The Membership Committee will continue to meet on the 3rd Friday of each month. Invite guests to our breakfasts and make contacts. If you are unable to make that phone call, call or e-mail Bob Bush with the name of your prospect. Also, if you havent seen one of our current members for a couple of meetings, call them and tell them they were missed.
PROGRAM COMMITTEE:
Chairman, Eric Steinle, is looking for members to serve on the Program Committee for next year. If enough members volunteer, you would only be presenting a program every 4 to 6 weeks. Even if you are not on the committee, you may know of individuals or groups who could be a program. Contact Eric by phone or e-mail with your suggestions.
