As November is Foundation Month, Assistant District Governor Norm Brown gave the members a short history  of Foundation. He reminded us that 91% of all donated money goes directly into Foundation. Our club has contributed $43,000 over the last three years.  Our goal for this year is $15,000.  
Other highlights of the meeting included a report on Casino Night by Patrick Webb, who explained that the committee is looking into venues, but that it is considering late February for the actual casino night and April/May for a silent auction to be held at Piccadilly Mall.  A live auction and ticket draws will continue to be part of the casino night activities. 
 
Ross reminded the club that the AGM, which will include the election of officers and directors for 2018-19, will be held on Nov 27. The club needs a president-elect (2019-2020), treasurer and three directors (2-year term). 
 
Hazel asked club members to send in suggestions for the club website. 
 
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner will be held this coming Friday, Nov 17.  The theme is plaid.  Our Christmas dinner will be on Dec 8 at 6 pm at AnDiamos Restaurant. Tickets are still available  from Norm Brown.
