Please take a brief moment out of your busy schedules to RSVP to three upcoming SRC events. We need accurate headcounts for planning purposes, so please extend that courtesy to the event coordinators. (And, as always, guests are welcome, but we’d like to know they are coming.)

Weekly dinner meeting, 6:15 p.m. Thursday, December 15, at Quigley’s. We have a lot planned for this one: (1)  a vote on proposed changes to our club Bylaws — you received them on 12/4 by email, and also can find them on the website; (2) webmaster Bill Dowd will give us a presentation on best uses of the SRC  website and our social media presence, so bring your cellphones, pads, laptops, etc.; (3) the menu will include Chicken Marsala, chef’s choice of sides, salad, bread, dessert and beverages. Tuesday, December 13, deadline for RSVPs.

Monthly Third Thursday Breakfast Meeting. It will be held at 7 a.m. Thursday, December 15, at the Greenbush Area YMCA, 1 Community Way, East Greenbush. Tuesday, December 13, deadline for RSVPs.

Holiday Party and Basket Silent Auction. Murray and Maggie are hosting the annual event at 6 p.m. Thursday, December 22. The menu will include Prime Rib and all the fixin’s from club member Jim Mendrysa’s Talk of the Town catering. The price will be $25 per person. Members whose last names begin with A through K are asked to bring a dessert serving six, and those who are L through Z an appetizer serving six. And, of course, don ‘t forget to bring your themed gift baskets for the silent auction, always a fun component of the evening and a good fundraiser for the club treasury. Monday, December 19, deadline for RSVPs.

P.S. This week only, do NOT reply to Debbie Brown who usually coordinates our meeting dinners. As you can see above, Murray is handling that duty this week.
