Wow! What a large turn out at today's meeting - the most we've had in a long while, 18 in attendance! President Ron Noble welcomed all members and their guests then inducted new members Kara Williams and Carla Higginbotham. Ron turned the meeting over to Ms. Jennifer Bessee with Communities and Schools, who gave a very informative presentation on the services that they provide our youth. The Golf Tournament committee confirmed that the tournament will be held at North Hampton with the date yet to be determined. The unwon 50-50 pot is now at $380+ so plan to join us next week and maybe it will be your lucky day!

We had a great turn out of members and guests today. President Ron Noble made a few announcements: It looks like our Golf Tournament will be scheduled for September of October and probably will remain at North Hampton. Ron also passed around a flyer from the N. Florida Christian Bass Club seeking participation and sponsorships. He then introduced Ms. Kara Williams and Carla Higginbotham who were there on behalf of Family Support Services, an organization that works to provide services to families and youth who may be having some life challenges. Ron invited both to join our club and with a surprise but generous gesture, Tony Brauda with First Coast Community Bank offered to pay their application fee and dues for the remainder of the year. Thank you Tony, FCCB and welcome Kara and Carla! At the end of the meeting the 50-50tickets were drawn, a card pulled, and torn to leave the deck at 30 cards and $360 in the pot! Please plan to join us next week and remember, "You can't win unless you attend!"

We had a full table today with a very interesting speaker, Ms. Staphanie Rutan, with the White Oak Conservation Center. Ms. Rutan filled the club in on what's been going on at the Center and then took questions, and more questions, and more questions! Our esteemed President Ron Noble reminded us that our club will be hosting the Zone meeting July 28th and asked for door prizes for the event. Please let him know if you have anything you would like to donate. Please plan to join us next week. You gotta eat lunch so you might as well join us!
