FORE!
We have been given a foursome in the Community Health & Hospice
golf tournament coming up on June 5, 2006 at the Waukewan Golf
Club in Meredith. If we can get four players together, see Joe
Collie for details. Chet Cilley said he'll play if 3 others will
join him. The foursome was given as a thank-you for our support
of CH&H's Young Family Program.
Got Shirts?
Roger Landry reminds the club that if you haven't picked up your
shirt yet or you still need to pay him, please do so as soon
as possible.
Boys and Girls Club
Update
Dianne Zawacki says that the Boys and Girls Club has opted to
have the Teen Center become a sanctioned B&G Club on their
own, instead of as part of a regional group. This will mean that
Dianne will have to have a board of directors. If interested,
see Dianne Zawacki. Next week, Joe Collie will distribute Back-A-Kid
packets on behalf of the Teen Center.

Guest Speaker
Roger Landry introduced us to Dick Metz and Chrissy Metz. Dick
showed us a DVD of all his collectibles that he had collected
and restored over the years. Tom, his video tech, ran the production.
Dick said a lot of his collectibles have been obtained through
barter and through people just giving him things to restore.
He says his collection of cars goes on the road and raises money
at collector shows for a Children's Hospital in New York and
Community Health & Hospice's Young Family program, among
others. He told the club about the upcoming Private Collector's
Show coming up in May.
Show details are as follows:
Date: Friday, May 12, 2006
Time: 7pm-11pm
Place: Winni Expo Center
Tickets: $75 per person, all proceeds benefit the Historic Belknap
Mill
Includes: Entertainment and Dancing, hors d'oeuvres. Annie and
The Orphans, Elvis impersonator, etc.
