Our gratitude and thanks go out to SK Rod Klingbeil and his wife Terry. We had a very nice crowd. SK Wes Swisher added some ambiance for the event. We entertained ourselves with the program. Pictures were taken but none were sent to the editor, SK Bob. Some might enjoy seeing me covered in sticky notes. We did conduct some business. We agreed to support Master Larry Ziarnik with a donation of $600 for the Fourth Degree Exemplification to be held on April 1, 2017 at the KI Convention Center in Green Bay.
