Our Meeting This Week

 

It’s been a while since we have written to Wes Sine as a club.  We thought it would be nice for everyone to write a letter to him letting him know what is going on in our lives.  There will be time during our meeting to write the letters, however, it would also be great if the letters could be written before and brought with you to the meeting.  If for some reason you can’t join us for the meeting, but you would like to have a letter included in our mailing to him, you can get your letter to Gordon Lewis by Tuesday night by him e-mail at gclbowl@xmission.com or call him for his mailing address (if you don’t have it).
