A very good program on military recruiting in the area by U.S. Army Sergeant First Class David Crum. SFC Crum, an Iraq veteran (during his 12 month deployment his team was responsible for successful detection and disarming of 336 IED and road side bombs), explained the Quincy Recruiting Station covers 6,000 square miles and usually inks about 150 individuals into military service annually. About 54% of those recruits join the U.S. Army. Joining SFC Crum was his boss, SFC Wood, who plans to retire by year's end. Jim Benz with the good introduction. |

The event will take place on Wednesday, March 16th at Cedar Crest Country Club. $20 will get you food, beverages, card playing, and an automatic entry in the NCAA bracket (which actually starts that evening with the "play-in" game). Guests (potential members) are welcome. |
| This & That | |
Jared Haugh with the good prayer and Eric Thomas leading the pledge... Hey, how about this - first reading on Tony Nutt sponsored by Curt Moore. The Draught (up to 161 days this Friday) looks like it will be over soon... President Kent Anderson asked if anyone was interested in carrying the flag for this Saturday's St. Patrick's Day Parade. Don't think he had any takers... Breakings news - Courtney Hageman is marrying Devin Heightman this Saturday, March 12th. Rumor has it that Devin's father will be there with shotgun in hand. Either way, congratulations Courtney and Devin... Macker Co-Chairman Curt Moore and Rick Goughnour heading to Monticello IN for Macker business soon... Is the honeymoon over yet, Paul Niemann... Skip Reuter had the right ticket for the second consecutive week but for the second consecutive week he picked the wrong card (six of spades). Pot is up to $453... Jeff Dorsey twisting tails but wisely omitting the Irish joke he had ready... Hard to believe that President Kent is down to about 15 Friday meeting left in his administration. Guess I was wrong about it being our last year; looks like we'll survive after all... That's all for now, 'til next time, may God's love, grace, and peace be with you and the ones you love. |
