Please join us on Zoom this week and hear from our very own Bob Newberry!!

Important Notes:

Committee Club Assembly

The next Club Assembly will occur in two meetings and have a different feel than in the past.  First, we will hear from Moon Tunes and their Annual Report on November 30th at the Onalaska YMCA.  Then we will continue on December 14th (no meeting on the 7th as that is the Holiday party - see below) with reports from the remaining committees.  We will not be meeting in committees that day, allowing each club time to report on their good work thus far and what is to come.  Please let me know if there is anything your committee needs in preparation of your update.

Holiday Party

Watch out for the sign-up for our annual Holiday Party which will take place on Wednesday, December 7th at the La Crosse Country Club with social time starting at 5pm.  We will not have a meeting that morning.  Be thinking of a good white elephant gift to bring :) if you would like to participate in the fun :)
