The Club met at MCL with 12 present.  Thanks to Sharon our hostess. 
Sue wished happy birthdays to Johnnie, Margaret, Nina and Deann.
Margaret reported we have approx $650 in treasury.  She said we only make about $10 a month from raffle with a $5 tip to the waiter.  She will order more cards.  Since it is expensive to send flowers, we will no longer do so.  We voted to just make a $25 donation to member's favorite charity in event of a member or spouse's death only.  
Sharon reported on the grant from NBS for publicity for 2015 Show.   She has corresponded with Jerry Dehay, needs info by Nov 1.  Can Use Mckensie News Service for $150 for blasts to several Medias.  Try to get article in Star week before.  Cynthia working on projected budget , hours for show time volunteers, graphic, etc.  Publicity grant program is on NBS site.
Sondra is sending contracts this week.   There will be no buffet or meal.  It will be appetizers for $18 including favor button.  Will order 40 favor buttons.   The appetizer reception will be Friday at 5:30 with bingo following, bring $5 button to play.
