flow and service at our monthly meetings. If you want to have dinner at OC 360 at our
Roost meetings, please be advised that you need to order dinner in the bar or
dining room BEFORE the meeting. We WON'T
be taking food orders during our Roost meeting. Only drink orders. If you order dinner that is not ready by the
time the meeting begins, your order will be brought in, but again, NO food
orders will be taken during the meeting. OC 360 has generously offered to have modest
snacks on the tables for us at the meeting. So, if you want to have dinner at OC 360,
please come early enough to have dinner BEFORE the meeting.
Please
think about stepping up to volunteer for Board and Officer positions and the
Golf Scholarship Committee next year. Don't

Remember that your Roost Membership card entitles
you to a 20% discount on food, beverage & apparel purchases at the Original
Greene Turtle (116th St.). We encourage
all Roost members and committees to patronize the Original Greene Turtle!
Remember that we collect plastic grocery bags at
every Roost meeting. These bags are used
by Diakonia (Local Food Bank & Homeless Shelter) to distribute food
contributions to the needy. My white
Ford pickup truck is parked in front of OC 360 at every Roost meeting. Simply put your plastic bags (tied up tightly)
in the bed of the truck. This is a great
way to recycle plastic bags for a good cause.

Man:
It’s the worst thing ever. I caught my
wife in bed with my best friend.
Bartender:
Oh man that really sucks! What did you do?
Man: I
told her to pack her shit and get the hell out!
