Opening

Phuoc really has GBA down pat!  With a room full we sounded very fine.  Bill Carpenter invocated the tender mercies made famous by our late Bill Hearn. 

Holiday Auction December 14!

Be there.  We've made our reservations.  Plan to join us for a fun and energetic auction next week. 
Circle K Banquet

This is what a fun interclub looks like!  Well, Joe almost belongs to Berkeley Kiwanis.  Look, Cheriz was there too!  She reported to the secretary that Vijay is doing lots of service in L.A. Photo Credit: JonAmir.  www.facebook.com/jonamir

Phuoc reported about the Circle K Banquet with his mouth full, so no one understood what he said.  It did appear to be a huge amount of fun, with energy, short skirts, fancy dresses, handsome men (Virginia will attest to that!) and a cool slide show.  Great bunch, those Circle K'ers!

Birthdays

Neither Secretary Bliss nor President Haughin had the birthday list.  Bill Fay volunteered that he is 87 on December 11.  Sandy Hearn did not volunteer that hers is on Dec 13.  Maybe next week?  Virginia particularly with a few others sang the HB with great enthusiasm.

Socks and deoderant are needed for YEAH.  Contact Sandy.
