EASTERN MAINE SNOWMOBILE CLUB

January 2012 Newsletter

 

Happy New Year!

 

The season is not starting out as we would like and only “flurries” in the forecast.   Hopefully by the time you get this newsletter the weather watchers will be wrong and the snow will come.     

 

Until the “snow fairy” visits us, the kitchen will NOT be open on weekends.  However, Friday night dinners will go on as planned.  In an attempt to save money, the kitchen will NOT be stocked with the usual food items (hamburger and hot dogs) until we have snow and can open on the weekends.  With that said, the Friday night dinners will be meals prepared by members who have signed up to cook.  There will be French fries (unfortunately not the fresh cut ones) and Onion rings available. 

 

We need your help!  The following Friday nights are open.  Please contact me (843-0749) if you’re interested in preparing a meal.  Keep in mind to keep it simple (and in-expensive).   January 20; February 3; February 10; February 17; March 2; March 9; March 16; March 23.   You can be reimbursed for items up to $50.00, by providing a sales receipt to our treasurer Paul Gargan.

 

The next club meeting is Sunday, January 15 at 7:00 P.M. following the club dinner at 6:00.   Danielle, Jason and Sissy will be preparing the meal.  They haven’t indicated what they’re cooking, but I’m sure it will be delicious.   The Board of Directors meets at 5:00.

 

For your calendars, the remaining 2012 club meetings are as follows.  Everyone will be notified of any changes to the schedule.  All meetings begin at 7:00 following dinner at 6:00:

In closing, please join in ---

 

            “North, South, East, West, Snow’s the stuff we love the best.  Bring it fast,

             cold and white and PLEASE…..bring a LOT ….. tonight!!!!
