10th Anniversary Celebration

Posted by Linda Coyle

On Saturday July 12, 2008, club members, past presidents, charter members and other guests celebrated the club's 10th anniversary with a dinner and dance.

Charter President Bill McNulty was the MC and kept us moving through the program.The anniversary was held in conjunction with the president's dinner where outgoing president John Crocock was presented with a Paul Harris. Incoming president Linda Coyle and board were installed by past District Governor Dean Rohrs. PDG Rohrs had each of the past presidents pin one of the incoming board members. Everyone seemed to have a good time and enjoyed looking at the pictures and other items on dislplay depicting the club's history.
