Vol. 35 No. 24 Meeting No. 1622 December 11, 2009 Editor: Jean Patterson
2009-10 Rotary International theme: The Future of Rotary Is in Your Hands.
We are Rotary club #3931.

NO MEETING is scheduled for this Friday, Dec. 11. Instead, please plan to attend the CHRISTMAS PARTY AND SILENT AUCTION ON SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 6:30 p.m. at the beautiful University Club.
Christmas Party and Silent Auction
The dinner party and auction will be held this Saturday, December 12, 6:30 p.m. at the University Club (1346 Central) featuring the MPD Peacemakers as our after-dinner entertainment. The MPD Peacemakers is a quartet of the finest singing voices in the Memphis police department.
Pricing for the dinner this year is $75.00 per couple and $37.50 per person.
The December Silent Auction is one of two major fund-raisers in the year. When you collect auction items you are helping to ensure another successful year to support the Memphis Central Club's Scholarship fund.
IMPORTANT NOTE FROM BILL EDDINGS: “PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE contact me no later than Friday to notify me about the items you plan to donate and bring to the silent auction on Saturday.. As we have repeatedly said, it is much easier for me to prepare individual item bid sheets on the computer before arriving at the party rather than hurriedly manually writing in the information on a blank sheet. Your cooperation is very much appreciated.”
