President Sue and Terry got the program started with some excellent stories about their golf exchange to Scotland. They also gave some of the details on how to participate in the exchange. It sounds an excellent adventure. If you can be a host for some visiting Rotarians from Scotland please let Sue know.

Rev. Joe finished off the program by delivering a Christmas message. His message was centered around the symbolism of some of the images and logos we see during the Christmas season.

 
Ace of Hearts 50/50 Draw
 

The draw this week was for $2,030.50. Ted pulled the 10 of spades, better luck next time!!! Remember you can't win if you don't buy a ticket. Good luck!
