FROM THE HELM

Well - not like they had much of chance - that would be the oysters. Will Grant and family repeated the grand assault of last year and were again victorious - not an oyster was left. It takes a lot of effort to pull this event off. Many thanks to them and everyone else who participated: food, cooking, decorating, and cleanup. Also - thanks to all who attended - continuing the record of this event as an annual success. Early good news - they are anxious to do it again next year.

As this Telltale is published - the next event is the next iteration of the Nuttall Store/WRYC wine event. As previously noted it has been re-formatted. Nuttall’s - as usual - has been wonderful to work with. Good beverages, great food, fantastic music should work for a great entry into December holiday celebrations. Looking forward to a fun evening.

Number 5 out of 6 - please plan to attend the Annual Meeting on Jan 20. Significant Club issues are to be addressed. Hopefully all Club members have become aware of this. Questions are welcome - phone numbers are available. Informational meetings will be on Wednesday Dec 6 and Thursday Jan 4.

Quiz of the month - who said: “If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull” and “Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake”.
