The second trip will be to the industrial museum in Doylestown sometime in March or April. The third trip will be a 6-hr. fishing trip leaving out of Barnegat in June. Bill also noted that he is keeping a record of all trips, their costs, contact names etc. for future reference.
· Bill also announced that we are getting low on the pens which are given to guest speakers. A motion was made “to renew the order of 200 pens from the same source”. The motion passed.

Old Business

· Ron Howley reported that the 5K Run has been rescheduled for Saturday, January 14th. Those members participating should be at the MacArthur Blvd and Cuthbert Blvd by 8-8:15 AM. After the run is completed, all the marshals as well as all club members are invited to meet at the clubhouse at approximately 10:15. Along with bagels and/or donuts, coffee and tea to warm the bellies, all clubhouse activities are available to provide a little friendly competition among the attendees.  So, whether you are able to serve as a marshal or not, come on out and have some fun. Feel free to bring a guest, especially prospective members.
· Henry reported that the donation of books for the Kroc center is going well. He suggested that the books be kept at the club for a couple months for member use prior to delivery.
