Dear
fellow Sertomans,
It is the
beginning of a new year and I hope this letter finds each of you doing well and
recovering from the holiday season.
Please join me in congratulating Steve Etheredge, our Sertoman of the
Year! He was rightfully honored at our January 3rd lunch
meeting. Thanks, Steve, for all that
you have done, and continue to do, for our club. We couldn’t do it without you!
We are now
halfway through our fiscal year and the main focus we will have for the next
month is on our annual Mardi Gras silent auction party which will take place on
Saturday February 9th, 2008
at the Summit Club. This is one of our
largest fund raising events and I sincerely hope all of you can be there and
bring some friends as well! We have
already secured some great auction items, but as always, we are in need of
more. These items can be anything from
hotel stays to restaurant gift certificates to big screen TVs’ to a plane ride
over Columbia. The more items we have,
the better our auction will be.
Remember it is crunch time so please do your best to secure some great
items!
Also, we
will need many helping hands that night to make sure things run smoothly. From gathering bid sheets once the auctions
end to getting the items in the properly numbered bag to getting our customers
checked out in a timely fashion, there is much to be done and we’ll need as
much help as we can get behind the scenes to accomplish this and make it
seamless for our guests. Ann Pauley and
Pat Blackwell may be asking you to help with certain functions, so please do
your best to be there and contribute!
This is shaping up to be a really nice event, so spread the word. A flier can also be downloaded from the club
website at www.richlandsertomaclub.org.
Lastly, we
will have our January board meeting at the Summit Club on Tuesday January 8th
at 6pm, and as always, these meetings are open to the whole club. We hope to see you up there Tuesday night.
Thanks for
all you do for our club.
Whitney
