Jared Haugh offered a stirring prayer to lead us in the meeting as well as Christmas week.

 Josh Klitz began the pledge with authority, enough so that the rest of the membership joined in to complete it. Josh's picture is included for all members to get acquainted with him. Steve Labs was his sponsor.

Steve Peters made the rounds collecting a buck as the tail twister for the meeting. Along the way he told a couple of heartwarming Christmas jokes.

Curt Moore conducted the 50-50 card draw. Steve Eckert had the right ticket to play and drew a 10 of Clubs. So the pot of $508 escalates (that means goes up for the non-Student of the Month members)

President Chuck Venvertloh dined on left-over crow again as his Cowboys ran out of air in the final minute of their game with Green Bay.

He did mention his thanks to Dennis and Joel Koch for lining up things for the Special Olympics Basketball Tournament which unfortunately was cancelled due to inclement weather. There will be no makeup date.

Chuck did live up to his commitment and presented a 12 pack of beer to both Bob Hays and Steve Labs for bringing in a new member recently.

President Venvertloh then presented our wonderful waitress, Jennifer Shaffer, a check from the membership as a Christmas bonus. She does a wonderful job for us each week and we appreciate her efforts each and every week.

We had one guest last Friday and that was Luke Greenwell, the son of Doug Greenwell. Luke is apparently entering the sports medicine field and took the opportunity meet with Dr. Biggs after the meeting.
