Chair Paul Cotton thanked the crew who worked the Rockingham
Park Roadshow last weekend: Phil Bonafide, Kathy Calvin (with
Patty Jeanne and Abbey), Roger and Pam Landry, Nancy Williams,
Don Nelson, Steve Loughlin, Michael Bastraw, Jim and Arlene Fortier,
and Paul Cotton as usual. $2406 was taken in on Saturday and
$2550 on Sunday. And with $200 from Laconia Savings Bank, this
has more than covered the cost of the Harley. For those keeping
track, we are at $21,778 compared to $25,173 last year at this
time. We will be adding a 2-1/2 day show in April at the World
Trade Center which should more than make up for a bit of s shortfall.
Paul Cotton and Warren Mitchell dropped the motorcycle at Laconia
Savings Bank where it will be in residence between shows. Our
next roadshow will be at the boat show at Lakes Region Expo,
March 8 and 9. After that it will be another boat show at Steeplegate
Mall, March 14-16.
Immediate Past Pres. Don Nelson does his thing.

Guest Speaker
Randy Eifert introduced Supt. W. Michael Cozort, Shaker Regional
School District to the club. He provided a Powerpoint presentation
on his November last trip to Japan under the auspices of the
Fulbright Memorial Foundation program that sent 200 teachers
and adminstrators overseas for three weeks as guests of honor
of the Japanese government. Cozort's group of twenty spent their
time in Tokyo where they visited many sights including shrines,
schools, restaurants, and the city in general. They stayed at
hotels and with private families. Another fine overtime presentation
that kept everyone's attention past our curfew.
