Penguin Swim: The RR44 Penguin Swim Team is registered and looking for more Team members! If you are interested in joining the team, give me a call. If you have not done the swim before, it is a lot of fun, we have a hospitality suite for changing, relaxing and having a few drinks, you get to jump in the ocean on New Year Day which few people get to do, and then get in a heated pool to warm up. You only have to get your feet wet to officially do the swim. The goal is to raise money by asking friends, family and associates to donate to Atlantic General Hospital by way of the Penguin Swim. The Penguin Swim Website is up so please register for the swim at www.aghpenguinswim.org and please let me know if you run into ANY problems or have ANY questions about the process. You should receive an email confirmation after registering so please let me know that you’ve received it. Please bring a donation of a bottle of liquor, wine, or beer for the raffle Basket of Cheer we are holding at the Christmas Party. There will be a meeting of the Penguin Swim Team and anyone interested in joining at 7pm before the regular meeting. THANK YOU! Gary 443-618-9972.

From the Prez:
-
Bull Roast tix open to all members and public and that we are only selling 200. We have an advertisement that will be in Friday’s Dispatch. Show your friends, show your family! We are also looking for things we can use for door prizes. And does anyone know a good oyster shucker? We can’t get hold of James who we’ve used in the past. Thanks.
-
Please look around your house for anything you can donate for door prizes for Bull roast. We still have lots of tickets. Consider donating $40 if you can't attend. This is our main fund raiser and we have given out a lot of money this year. We can't give out if we don't make a profit on this. So far ticket sales to members are far below what we've sold to outsiders and that's pretty sad. Thanks to those of you who are unable to come but still bought tickets. It's extremely appreciated. Thanks to all who signed up to help with money wheels. Still need help with setting up and clean up. There are no assigned seats but you can hold chairs for other people sitting with you until 2:30.

We will be changing our November meeting to 11/3 due to home game on our regular meeting night on 11/10. The meeting will back upstairs at the Original Greene Turtle.
