SOUTH HILLS KIWANIS BULLETIN 11/29/07

PRESIDENT ANITA was unable to attend because of severe back pain, and thus, VICE PRES. DONALD ANDREWS took over, and persuaded MAC and GLORIA FREET to lead the patriotic song, "GOD BLESS AMERICA."

HARRY ANDERSON led the Pledge to the Flag, and ELTON CHATFIELD let the prayer. Then TEX WILLIAMS' THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak;
Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen."
Winston Churchill

WIMPY ANDREWS took over for ANITA, and got HARRY ANDERSON to admit that his wife was having her 39th birthday – again – and that he had been to a couple of places "Down Under" namely, Australia and New Zealand, and for all of those sins, he contributed $100.00.
ELTON CHATFIELD tried to buy the FINE FREE BADGE so he could use it today, because he has been on a very expensive golfing vacation, got his picture in the paper and got "Wimpy" to accept $20.00. Limpy or Wimpy is never going to make the budget next year, although he tap JOEL BEEZY for $13.00 because JOEL'S Cell phone went off during the meeting.
There was a good spirited bidding war for the FINE FREE BADGE for December, and TOM PALMERI'S bid of $80.00 won the badge.
BILL MATTHEWS finally realized he won the weekly pot of ?????

COOKIE FORD has done a good job of getting programs, but this old fot cannot understand what the speakers are saying, but FRED FELDEIM, a gentleman from the Covina Historical Society talked about a program to be held at the Assembly of God Church, which will have some opera stars from the Los Angeles Opera, and I think they would like a contribution from our club for the school children in our fair city who are interested in opera. Now if that ain't right, someone else can take over and write this sob story.

We all need to get active in our campaign for new members.
