Change in Billing...
We would like to have members pay for their meals as they attend each meeting…..if for some reason this does not work for you and you need to make alternate payment arrangements please speak with Kathy Calvin.

Invoices for membership dues have been distributed.  Please pay these before the first meeting in September..


Ride For Roger:
Dick Breton reminded the club the second annual Roger’s Ride for a Cure will take place on Sunday, August 29, 2010. The purpose of Roger's Ride, which is held in memory of Roger Ballantyne, is to raise funds towards a cure for kidney cancer. The Kidney Cancer Association works together with patients, family members, physicians, researchers and many other health professionals.

Roger’s Ride for a Cure will take place on Sunday, August 29, 2010. It will be a motorcycle ride starting and ending at Irwin Motors Used Car Center on Union Avenue in Laconia, NH. Registration will run from 9:00 a.m. until 9:45 a.m. and will include coffee & muffins. The scenic, 100 mile ride will depart at 10 a.m. sharp and will end with a barbeque and 50/50 raffle. (The ride will take place rain or shine. A shorter route will happen if the weather does not cooperate.) Donation is $25.00 per motorcycle which will be divided between LRGHealthcare and the Kidney Cancer Association.

We've Got Mail:

Steve Loughlin read thank you letters from scholarship recipients Brittany Perron and Nicole Levasseur (So far, he has received 4 thank you’s out of the 5 recipients) Steve noted, these two letters were unique. One letter was printed so clearly it looked like it was a professional card. The other letter was the longest thank you he recalls receiving from a scholarship recipient. You can view each letter by "clicking" on to the thumbnail letters below.
