ISSUE #500
NOVEMBER 2014

Greetings to All,
It has been a very busy time since the Election Rally and at the same time a very
exciting time.
To start, I had my first BOT meeting. Many items were on the table from the
budget to rallies for the coming year. Since I have been unable to secure a
parliamentarian for my board, I was pleased to invite a guest parliamentarian for my
first BOT meeting. Carolyn Florence graciously accepted and Julia Jowders has
accepted the position for our upcoming BOT in December. My thanks to both of these
ladies.
Our return to Leavenworth Rally was fun, great weather and greater people! We
had 21 rigs in attendance and 42 people. The Royal Lady made an appearance Saturday
afternoon in camp and was a true delight. My co-host Mike Plympton kept the coffee
hot, I kept the fires bright and Marianne & Kathy took care of our meals. Not to be
outdone, everyone helped and made the job easy and fun. Thank you all.
The last BOT was not well attended and I promise to never again schedule a
BOT on Monday night. With that said, I urge all members of the Washington Unit to do
your best to attend our BOT Meetings and our Membership Meetings. I need your
opinions, your guidance and your support.
I was told to keep this short as this is going to be one large newsletter so I will
just say thank you all for your support and stay safe.
Next BOT is during the Christmas Rally Dec 11 at 7:00 PM with the rally on
Dec 12 to 14.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving - God Bless & God Bless America.

Let us be thankful in our hearts,
Thankful for all the truth imparts,
For the religion of our Lord,
All that is taught us in His Word.
Let us be thankful for a land,
That will for such religion stand;
One that protects it by the law,
One that before it stands in awe.
Thankful for all things let us be,
Though there be woes and misery;
Lessons they bring us for our goodLater 'twill all be understood.
Thankful for peace o'er land and sea,
Thankful for signs of liberty,
Thankful for homes, for life and health,
Pleasure and plenty, fame and wealth.
Thankful for friends and loved ones, too,
Thankful for all things, good and true,
Thankful for harvest in the fall,
Thankful to Him who gave it all.
