November Meeting Reminder

This is a reminder that the next Seattle Base meeting is this coming Wednesday, November 20.

We will meet at VFW Post #2995 (4330 148th Ave N.E., Redmond WA 98052). Social hour starts at 6 PM with business meeting at 7PM. Don't forget to review the previous meeting minutes, you can find them here on the blog or on the Seattle Base website, just click the Minutes button on the left.

We have a number of items on the agenda for this month:

There is revision to the Seattle Base bylaws that will be presented at the meeting for discussion and seconding and voting will occur at the January 2014 business meeting.

The 2014 National Calendar “The Boomers” is sold out nationally and Bill Giese, our Base SK still has a small number of calendars on hand. If you want one, he will have them at the base meeting. If you cannot make the meeting, email Bill to purchase. The calendars are $10.00 each, plus mailing cost if not picked up at the meeting. When they are gone, that will be it.

John Roberts has made tentative arrangements for a Kaps4Kids visit to Children’s Hospital. He will provide a brief presentation explaining the program at the meeting.

Find your ‘round-tuits’ and get your Christmas Holiday lunch reservation at Anthony’s Home Port in Kirkland in to Jim Harper as soon as possible. The view is great, food is wonderful and the company cannot be beat! You can find a copy of the registration form in the latest newsletter or download it here.
Dues renewal notices have been sent to all those who need to renew their national and/or base dues. Please pick up that ‘round tuit’ and git r’ done by getting your dues to Jim Harper.

November Program:
Don Ulmer will spin a true bittersweet saga of World War I told him by his best friend at age 11. The friend's Aunt Marge Van Sciver and 1st Lieut Malcom Gunn of the embryo US Army Flying Corps marry on the eve of his deployment to France over objections of both families. Film clips excerpted from a musical play based on this tale produced by the Seattle Museum of Flight spice Don's PowerPoint presentation. A good one for wives and significant others, so bring 'em. A heart string tugger, kleenex advised for the ladies.
