The December Minutes were approved. The Treasury report was read by Jim Moody and accepted. Roger Reid was unable to attend tonight therefore there is no report on our Camp Boggey Creek project. Robert Berruti has applied for membership to our organization and was unanimously voted in as a member. Congratulations and welcome to Robert Berruti.
President Moody asked for a round of applause for Wayne Hughes our outgoing secretary citing the fine job and service that he provided for us this past year. President Moody asked both outgoing lecture chairman Roger Many and incoming lecture chairman Greg Solomon to speak to us about past and upcoming lectures. Greg told us about several possible lectures for the future. It was determined that Greg would try to book Murray Hatfield for a lecture on Sunday March 3rd. Terry and Sue Harris have offered to host Murray at their home. Decisions on the other possible lecturers were table until our February meeting. The Dan Harlan lecture was discussed and the general feeling was that it was a very good lecture with a lot of good and useable material. George Shield our DVD & VHS librarian reminded us that tapes and DVD are available for loan and should be returned at the next meeting. If you fail to return it you will get a one-month grace period. If it is not returned the 2nd month you will be charged a $20.00 replacement fee. President Moody thanked Terry Harris for all of his effort setting up our holiday party in December. President Moody reviewed our new slate of officers which were installed at the December meeting they are President Jim Moody, Vice President Greg Solomon, Treasure George Smallwood and Secretary James (Skip) Waversak. The next meeting is going to be February the 28th .We do have an auction tentatively scheduled for this meeting but it may need to be put off until the next meeting. Dan Jacobs won the 50/50.
Tonight’s theme is “What I got from Santa or at the gift exchange” Our MC for tonight’s theme show is Magic Ian.
The show was opened by Bryan Weller who did a very funny mentalist effect with Merna. The Silver Fox David Lyons did a mentalist effect with Linda Strong, which resulted in him naming the object Linda was thinking of. Terry Harris did his version of a prediction card in glass with a surprise ending. Brad Weller did a Christmas present routine with inner – outer envelopes. Magic Ian wrapped up the show with his presentation of Harry Loraine’s stop trick.

Respectfully submitted
James (Skip) Waversak
