President s Message Hi Gang. December has finally arrived. Time for the Christmas Party and Toys for Tots. We will be collecting new, unwrapped, toys at the December meeting and at the Christmas Party. We always have a good haul to take to the Fire Department so don t forget. At the December meeting we will be electing officers for next year. We have managed to find someone for every job for 2019 so I hope we can have a good year of touring. So, you can come to the December meeting without worrying about being drafted. I m sure there was something else I was supposed to address, but I am running late as usual to get this to Sandy for the Newsletter. Happy holidays to all and see you next year!
