NEWS AND NOTES



Meeting notes: Dave Eppelsheimer contributed a happy dollar for the gift basket donated to the pancake breakfast by L'Occitan. John Foley was happy about his brief trip to visit children in Austin last week. Gary Knisbeck was happy about a day at the Milwaukee Art Museum with his granddaughters. Kevin Sjostrom was happy about getting through eye surgery. Taylor Poehls paid twice, once for his weekend at the Midwinter convention with Lydia and no children, and once for his Valentine's Day breakfast with Lydia.

Our program was presented by WWHS's We the People team (State champions again!) and their coach, Chad Mateske. They are looking forward to an April trip to DC for the national competition, but they need to raise some money first. We can help by attending an all-you-can-eat brunch at O'Sullivan's Public House, 12525 W. North Ave. Sunday, February 26, 10 AM - 2:30 PM. Call O'Sullivan's at 262-784-1656 for a reservation.



Interclub: Tuesday, February 21, in Menomonee Falls at Trysting Place Pub (Appleton & Good Hope Road) with the preliminary gathering about 5:30 and club meeting at 6:30 PM.



Pancakes: The meeting on February 28 will be a preparation session. Right now we need raffle items of $5 to $10 value. The breakfast is March 4 at WWHS. Eli has tickets and is collecting ticket money. Jason Gonwa will take your order for placemat ads (414-256-5380 or j.gonwa@tcnb.com). Taylor has the Kindle Fire to be auctioned at the breakfast.



Wine & beer tasting results: The Club donated a Virage styling chair to the Lutheran Home to show our appreciation. You can see a photo at http://www.minervabeauty.com/styling-chairs/virage-styling-chair-black.htm.
