We had the Annual Meeting, and was attended by a great number of members!
The meeting was filled with fun and food! We are in the process of electing new officers and getting the minutes out. I apologize for the delay, I am in the hospital for a few ailments that the doctor says will be corrected soon! Once the minutes are approved, I will post them here.
As I write this (1/8/10) I hope everybody will have a great time at the Holiday Party - sad I will miss it, but want to pass along a hearty wish for all of our members and their families to have a prosperous, safe and healthy new year!

April 10th Nothin' Up My Sleeve 8 and Special Tribute to Marshall Brodien.
I would suggest the best way to buy tickets for our members would be over the phone as they may want to avoid the steps to purchase online and some additional conv. fees that apply. Here are the steps though for online purchase -
They can go to www.rauecenter.org and go to the April 10th Nothin' Up My Sleeve Show click BUY TICKETS! button then they will see the two events listed - Nothin' Up My Sleeve 8 and Special Tribute to Marshall Brodien. If they want tickets to the show they click Buy Tickets button then they click drop down for "select a price" and decide what seating zone they want (note these prices are before applied discount). Then they type Number of Tickets and then they click Quick Pick Tickets button. Now comes the discount! They click "Apply Discount" button and then enter coupon code Magic8 and click "unlock" button. After clicking "unlock" they need to click the drop down "select new price" and then click IIISheeter discounted price ($3.00 less then regular price) and then the "Change Discount" button. Check out and DONE!
For the Special Tribute to Marshall Brodien (reception) they would go to the April 10th Nothin' Up My Sleeve 8 and this time click on Special Tribute to Marshall Brodien "Buy Tickets" button and then enter Password: Magic8 and then click Continue button. Type in amount of tickets and then click "Reserve Selected Tickets" button. Check out and DONE!
For over the phone purchase - Theatre and Box Office

-- FOX RIVER QUEEN OUTING --
The outing on the Paddle Boat on Sunday, the 28th of Sept. was a lot of FUN! It was GREAT seeing other members of the club enjoying themselves! Sure there was some "shop talk", but everybody letting their hair down so to speak to enjoy the fresh air and the cruise down the Fox River was what it was all about! If you weren't there,(and you know who you are), you missed a wonderful time!
Don't miss out on the next event - We ALWAYS have FUN!
