President George's
25 January 2006
On our first regular meeting at the Golf Club may I wish all a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. I am sure that all our resolutions are holding firm!
Though it seems a long way past, our Christmas party was, I think, enjoyed by all. Many thanks to Connie Galletta for organizing such an enjoyable night. Santa Claus’s appearance brought smiles to everyone faces and he was quite generous in handing out gifts for all. Santa had quite a few gifts left over and these were donated to Claffy House, a worthy cause and we thank the Lanzafame family or their generosity.
The banquet at Botoli’s was a very good, relaxed, friendly, social night. Thank you Eric.
We were saddened to hear the news of Jean Thurgar’s passing. Angelo is giving a report elsewhere but I did want to record Catherine and my own deepest sympathy to Ron an the family. Flowers have been sent on behalf of the Club. Jean will be greatly missed.
To meet the copy deadline I am obliged to have this in before our big Bowls ‘n’ BBQ night. Rod McDougal has put in a big effort to make this a successful night and without any bias I am sure that it will be.
So we are off and running in 2006 and what a great year it will be.
Enjoy Rotary,
President George
