PROGRAM NOTES FROM – March 4, 2005

 

Christy Henderson, Chief Meteorologist for WSPA, News Channel 7 was our Speaker.  Christy is from Ft. Worth, Texas and has worked in Waco, New Orleans, and Atlanta.  We were pleased to learn a little more about how the weather is forecasted and what criteria defines severe weather warnings.   The most weather-related deaths occur from flash flooding.  Flash floods are six or more inches of moving water.   

 

WE ARE HONORED BY YOUR VISIT AND WE HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN SOON.

 

Mary Beth Broadwater – Wofford College

Ann Fenn – Wife and Guest of Peter Fenn

 

              A THOUGHT TO TAKE WITH YOU

 

          We never become truly spiritual by sitting down and wishing to    become so.  You must undertake something so great that you cannot accomplish it unaided.

                                                                      Phillips Brooks

         

Our prayers and best wishes are extended to Carole Wells who recently broke her foot.  We hope to see Carole back with us soon.

 

USHERING EVENTS FOR YOUR CALENDAR

Thursday, March 17 at 6:00 pm – Spartanburg High School Concert

 

 

It seems to be getting harder to round up volunteers for our Ushering Program.    I understand that no one really wants to Usher and sometimes that even includes me, but the revenue is extremely important to our Club.  We need to keep that in mind.  Perhaps thinking about the work involved in raising $10,000 in another way might inspire you to sign up for a few events.
