PRESIDENTS REMARKS – October 29, 2019
It’s also that time of year to be thinking of our next Irish Man and Woman of the Year recipients. Nominations can be sent to any Board member between now and December 9th. Please be sure to include a brief statement on why you believe your nominee is deserving of the recognition. Jenn will be sharing more information with you during tonight’s meeting.
Welcome, everyone. Thank you all for coming tonight. The stores are stocked and fundraising pie sales are abundant so it must be time for the “other” holiday season that comes this time of year. We will be busy with our share of upcoming club holiday activities that you will hear more about tonight. As always I encourage you to support these activities and your fellow members that dedicate so much time and energy to make them successful.Our volunteer of the month award tonight goes to Sally Carter. Sally has chaired or co-chaired numerous successful events throughout the years. She is extremely organized and prepared before, during and after every event she is involved with. She has a great attitude and enthusiasm for any challenge she accepts.
Respectfully Submitted,
Tim McNamara -
