Smith #1069 - PresidentAs I write this months Presidents message,it is with a heavy heart as I havejust received the message that our belovedmember John Nicholls Booth #869 hasgone on the great adventure. John was aninspiration to so many around the Worldand to everyone in our club. A man thatlived many lives and published over 18books, including countless articles. A magician,adventurer, minister, cinematographerand the first clergyman to have a religioustelevision show in the 1940’s. Aman that epitomizes what our club is allabout. A memorial at the club is beingplanned and he will be sorely missed.We have concluded our elections forthis year and the new officers and boardmembers for 2010 are as follows: PresidentAllan Smith, 1 st /Program ChairmanVince Weatherby,2 nd Vice President Mike Gualtney, SecretaryAlan Feldstein, Treasurer RickFlores. Board members: Steve Peterman,Jeffery Goddard, Stuart Bird Wilson, DaveFinnern, Robert Williscroft and Dave Yamada.We now start to look ahead to the holidaysand our “Presidents Christmas Party”.This year’s party is not the time to miss as Ihave some great “female” entertainers forthe evening.
