Kathy Baddley once again did a fabulous job on the Newsletter!  A few suggestions were given to help
shorten the pages.  If someone wants
to write an article, make it short – explain the article.  Articles with pictures need to be
minimized to fit on the pages.

web page.

Well, my typical special note from the
Secretary…….

Greg
announced to the club that we have three special people that have recently QUIT
SMOKING!!!! Of course Ann quit many moons ago, but now Doug and Lynn have
quit!  We also have 2 newcomers,
John Simon and Janet Fraser!  As a former
smoker (over 2 years now), I would personally like to encourage them to
continue with their strength to not smoke.
I know all too well how tough it is to not want 2 bottles of wine and a
carton of cigarettes!!!  But as we
all know, there’s nothing worse than a reformed smoker – so keep up
the good work and join many others of us!!

May
you have a very Blessed Month of April, a Happy Holiday and may you remember
where you hid all your eggs so that you don’t find this years
eggs…. Next year!!

Don’t
forget 2 things (how many of us can remember 2 things……….)

1.

Postage Stamps
