August is here. The year has seemingly flashed
by for me. Becoming Big Sir after the untimely
passing of Bill Fox challenged me and our
Branch to continue Bill's vision. We are blessed
to have a strong and committed Board of
Directors. I have the upmost respect for them as
well as past Big Sirs. Together they have made
my tenure as Big Sir a pleasant one.
With that being said, I encourage more members to seriously consider taking a
leadership position. David Baker, ( Little Sir), Bob Brown ( Little Sir, 2017),
Harold Phister (Secretary 2017) and the addition of Dennis Dix to the board
is a wonderful example of new people wanting to be part of our leadership. We
have room for others as well. Let me or anyone on the board know your
interest in learning what you can do for your Branch. You will be appreciated
and the chapter will grow because of your involvement. We can ALL benefit
by looking for members to join. In our everyday activities, we occasionally
meet a future SIR. Let's put ourselves out there and encourage these men to
take a look at our Branch. Rich Forgie will take your lead, he does a great job
as membership coordinator and director.
Shorts are optional for August. The female servers are going to pick the
"best legs". Winner gets 6 raffle tickets. All jeers to the winner are optional.
See you on the 15th.
