ANNOUNCEMENTS
 
1) Salvation Army Bell Ringing: Dale Johnson announced that he was sending around a clipboard for volunteers to bell ring for the Salvation Army on 12/19 at Macy's department store. 
 
2) Probation Department Toy Drive: Mike Gibson reminded everyone that the gift giving was fast approaching and if you hadn't had the opportunity to donate toward the project, then the clipboard would once again be going around (yes, our club thrives on clipboards)
 
3) Rotary Adult Christmas Party: Radisson - December 18 - 6:00 PM to ??. Please RSVP to Prez Shannon ASAP.
 
4) Special Olympics Dinner: Saturday February 6, 2016 at the Veteran's Memorial Center. Teresa Reyburn made the announcement and urged everyone to "save the date" for this worthy cause. It should be a fun evening along with an outstanding meal that will be prepared by the "delectable" Martin Testa (I've heard Martin called a lot of things before, but that one is a first for me). Anyway, please mark your calendars and call Teresa for more details.
 
5) Teddy O: Ted Ortega has a very special event happening in mid January. He invited all the club members to join him and Beth and asked everyone to "save the date". It sounds like a fantastic evening and a great way celebrate the new year.
 
6) PCPA Donation: Our Breakfast Rotary Club was pleased to present a check for $1,000 to our local PCPA Foundation. Pictured are Rotary member Jim Bray and PCPA representative Gillian Andrews.
 
 
BRAGS
 
Rotarian of the Month(s) (November & December) Jim Ventriglia: Jim used his free brags on his wife's new car and that his daughter and family from the Bay Area came down and visited over the Thanksgiving holiday.
 
Michelle Jensen: Michelle bragged $50 on the Righetti High School Interact club's successful clothes drive. As the club's advisor, she is extremely proud of all of them. She also included a "shout out" to Kate Ferguson and her daughter for helping her out recently.
 
Mike Cardona: Mike bragged on his wife's recent birthday. He felt that $6 dollars and 0 cents would be appropriate. Happy Birthday Crystal!!
 
Frank Ortiz: Frank and Scottie recently returned from a lengthy vacation trip that took them to many places over a few weeks time (Germany, France, New York, etc). They did a wide variety of things and enjoyed themselves immensely. They are thankful for a safe trip and that was worth $100.
 
Dale Johnson: Dale is very proud to be a new Grandpa to his son's new addition to the family. Dale was beaming with pride as he contributed $100 to the brag fund. Congratulations Dale! We are all very happy for you.
 
Andy Caldwell: bragged $28 on his recent 28th wedding anniversary. To celebrate, Andy and his wife Linda will be going on a trip in the near future. Happy Anniversary!!
 
Wayne Miller: Wayne did quite a bit of Elk hunting in Colorado recently. He had a great time and made it back in one piece (without any visible Elk marks on him). That was worth $50.
 
Shannon Seifert: Shannon was very proud of the Rotary float repair crew that did a remarkable job of getting the float decorated and "road worthy" just in time for this Saturday's Rotary Parade of Lights. She gives her sincere thanks to all that participated. Brag = $30
 
 
FINES
 
Kelly Smith, Ken Bradley and Jimmy V: Were fined $30 each for "seeing no Rotary, hearing no Rotary and speaking no Rotary" (according to the picture).
 
 
Andy Caldwell: Apparently Andy has a puppet look-a-like. Shannon decided to fine the puppet $30 instead of Andy (good luck collecting on that one)
 
Eddie Stanfield, Doug Palmer and Jerry Walsh: They looked like they might know where President Seifert's missing two gavels are (yes I said two). The odds are that they don't, but they were fined $30 each anyway.
PROGRAMS
 
 
S.J.H.S. Glee Club: This week the club was treated to the musical talents of the St. Joseph High School Glee Club. The musical group sang an assortment of Christmas songs, which included Christmas Time Is Here, Almost There, Jingle Bell Rock and Silent Night. The club is relatively new to the school and is currently under the direction of local singer and musician, Amy Curti. The club looks forward to December 11th where they will be performing in Old Orcutt at the tree lighting ceremony. They are a very gifted group of young adults and our club is very appreciative of today's early morning performance.
 
 
 
Parade Of Lights: Mike Gibson gave all attending members an update on the upcoming Christmas Parade of Lights. All members were reminded of their job duties and committee chairs were given time to speak about their responsibilities and who will be helping them. The parade is scheduled for Saturday December 5th and everything seems to be going according to plan.
