Our October meeting included a presentation by Tina on “The Falls of Cyde”. Her topic included photos of the ship, past and present, and alot of historical information. It was a great presentation.

We have open seats (Pres, & Vice Pres) for next year.  Please contact Randy if you are interested in leading our club next year.  The job really is not hard, you only need to run the meetings each month and keep us to the agenda.  The rest of us do the committee work.
