"Save the Date" postcards for our 2023 Auction are now available. Please see Robert Harrison for as many as you would like to send or give out.  These cards include free admission to the auction on April 1, 2023. Commitment sheets are expected in the next couple of weeks, so members are advised to start securing items. Time leading up to our auctions always flies, so get moving!

Sergeants at Arms are concerned that fine collections are behind budget. We're already heading into the third Thursday in January, and no fines have been collected this month. On top of that, fines were collected in only one of the weekly meetings in December. In desperation, operatives at Sparks Tower are proposing fines be posted in Sparks, and "offending" members be billed, with links to Venmo and PayPal.

This week we celebrate Stacy Hebb's birthday (1/13, which we missed last week at Kripalu); and the Club anniversaries of Ben Parhizgar (37 years a/o 1/16/86) and Jay Bailly (17 years a/o 1/19/06).

There was no lottery drawing last week at Kripalu, so the pot remains at $634, with 30 cards in the deck. We are looking for the 2 of Clubs.
