Summer Chapter Meeting - June 2004
Las Vegas, Nevada
20 - 25 June 2004
The Chapter Meeting started immediately after the closing gavel of the General Meeting. Unfortunately, the time for the General meeting was changed at the last moment from 1300 hours on 23 June to 0900 hours on 23 June. This mix-up in times prevented us from having a forum and as such, this meeting was not official.
You can really tell there's a lot of enthusiasm circulating among the group.
Everyone looks like they've spent the last week drying out in the drunk tank.
Also noticeably absent from this group are Bobby and Lee. Art is here so I'm assuming---and you know what "AssUMEing" does---that Bobby and Lee were among those that thought the General Meeting was at 1300 hours.
Ken talked Frenchie into joining our chapter on Monday. This is all well and good and we always welcome new members to our chapter.
Frenchie might have problems making our quarterly meetings and we might have problems making a chapter meeting in Frenchie's home town. You see, Frenchie lives in Fairbanks, Alaska.
Now I do believe that makes our Chapter the largest chapter (in area) in the Association. We
cover all the southeast and Alaska.
Ken is looking over the fine print in the membership application.
He wants to make sure there's a clause in the application that states our quarterly meetings are mandatory and there's a monetary penalty for missing one. Frenchie doesn't seem to mind in the least. He's hob-nobbling with the Pres...
We finally did something right! National recognized the fact that we had a pretty good newsletter. Not number one, for sure, but the First Runner Up.
That means, just like in all those Miss America contests, if the number one newsletter forfeits for any reason, we become Numero Uno---Number One!
And what is this? Current chapter officers, past chapter officers and a young damsel in distress.
As you can see, Bobby is alive and well and has survived the 4-5 day journey across the barren lands of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada.
That's it, folks. You can return to the Convention 2004 or continue on to the Rogue's Gallery
