And the Nominations Committee for next year are:
Sir Knights & Past Presidents Gordon Smith, Larry Hoff, & Harry Allen. If you desire to be considered for the line you can contact one of these Sir Knights. Sir Knight David Watkins placed his name in the hat last night for Vice President 2012.
Sir Knight Jim Dykes gave a very good and informative talk last night on Robert Lewis Stevenson, a Scotsman, his life and works. Very well researched and very well given. Those not present missed a great evening of fun, food, Fellowship and enjoyment.
Sir Knight and Past President Larry Hoff and his lovely Bride were present and after his last year of battling cancer it was an extreme pleasure to have them both present. Keep Larry and Linda in your prayers.
One of the 'new kids on the block' Sir Knight Joe D. Westbrook and his lovely lady were in attendance this year also and it was good to see them there.
Our Officers finally for the first time had the pleasure of being "Announced" and introduced into the clan with bagpipe music. Thanks to Sir Knight David Watkins for providing us with the music.
Sir Knight President (Clan Chief) will schedule a meeting in the month of January (as per the bylaws) and I will inform all of this meeting for all are welcome to attend this our Annual Business meeting to start planning for the Banquet for 2011.
All total there were 29 present (couple had to cancel at last minute) Hope to see more next year.
I hope all have a very Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year.
