New Game in Town
President Steve asked Glen to introduce a new fun way to raise money for administrative costs. Members were invited to put in $2.00 each. A deck of cards was used, and the idea is that each week one member will be asked to draw a card hoping for the Ace of Spades. If not picked the money stays in the kitty to next week. Each week the money will grow until the Ace of Spades is selected. At that time 50% remains with the Club and the other half goes to the luck winner.
