Four officers, 11 members, four guests, one first time guest, three sons, and two daughters (a record 25 total participants) had a great time at the 12/13/07 Club Meeting at Randy and Chris Rowley's home. We also had a record seven ladies in attendance. The meeting featured a baked turkey and a deep fried turkey and all the trimmings. I would like to thank the many members who brought a side dish. They were yummy! Tom Hewitt Director of Operation Orphans was our special guest speaker. Tom lives in San Antonio. I would like to thank him for sharing with us, especially seeing that he was so far from home. I would like to thank the many members who made donations to Operation Orphans. They are having a raffle right now with the prizes being a Ruger .243 and a Turkish over/under shotgun. Tickets are available for 6 for $5.00 or 25 for $20. Contact Tom to purchase tickets. Jim McGee led us in a devotional on rejoicing in the Lord always. The new coffee cups were displayed. One lady joined the Club and four members renewed. We watched the duck hunting video "Duckmen X Relentless." We had our usual discussion of upcoming events. These included:
