VOLUNTEER NEEDED: I am stepping down as newsletter editor next year. If anyone is interested in taking over this position please contact me (Shawn Allen) or anyone on the board.

 

MRC WEBPAGE: A reminder to club members to subscribe to the webpage. There are no subscription fees. As a subscriber to the website you will automatically be sent an update message so you can be made aware of any club news updates. As I get information from the board between meetings I post it to the webpage.

 

MRC ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY: The party this year will be on December 8th at the clubhouse.

The plan is to have hor’derves starting at noon with dinner being served at 1:00pm. The early start is to allow for possible weather issues. This will allow people to come in the daylight hours and return home before it gets dark. The dinner this year will be lasagna (homemade), Italian bread, and a tossed salad. We are asking people to bring a dessert to share. Everything else will be provided. Yes Santa will be there handing out gifts to the children. The Tabers are asking that reservations be made before November 19th. They will need to know the number of adults and age and gender of the kids planning on coming so gifts can be bought. Please make your reservations by calling the Tabers at 315-387-3871.

 

Future new members: To help alleviate some of the problems regarding rules violations the BOD’s have decided that after January 1st new members are to come to the board meeting at 7:30 on the night they are to receive their membership. This is to allow the board to explain some of the rules and expectations that come with club membership. This is meant to be a meet and greet with a chance for the new members to ask questions and meet the board.

 

Trap house: The list of people authorized to use the traphouse has been deleted. Gary Granger has said that because of some new equipment and rules regarding the traphouse, he wants himself or Jim Walker contacted before some one uses the traphouse going forward. The club has invested a considerable amount of money and effort into the trap set up so please respect this request. Please call 315-427-1162 to use the traphouse.
