According to Dick, The meanest looking thing I've over seen in my whole lifp." Their hunting trip was extremely successful since they bagged 4 bull moose in as many days. They came off the trip with about a ton of moat. This bit of information should warm you up when you hear that Dick and his family have had 50 below zero at night!

Notes From the Cu'lom-Knoll In spite of the terrible weather; ice, rain, and cold; a record number of eighteen persons turned out for last Sunday's meeting in the beachhouse. Marie and Allan McKim reported the total profit of the Harvest Home dance to be slightly in excess of 5400, which is fantastic for a one night event! Credit must go to the excellent programming on the part of the McKims and to all others who worked so very hard to make it suc- ' e s s f u l T h e w o r k e r s w e r e named in the last issue of the column. Unfortunately. rumors were circulated about the profit which were out of all projjortion to reality. In addition to the large amount of money which will fatten the building fund, the good will tho affair engendered was immeasuable. We know we have people just waiting for the announcement of the next dance! Enthusiasm on the part of t ho members was so groat that the date for the second annual Harvest Home dance has boon established "as Nov. 4. 1967! More than likely, tho club will hold * another tvpe dance sometime in May Operation. Christ mas Tico will be carried out by the club under the leadership of Theresa Schultz. Donations of canned goods, staple foods, and money, may be deposited nt the Forum. Lu's Cullom- Knoll Inn. or the Corner Store. A mooting of this committee is scheduled for Sunday. Doc. 11. at H p.m. in the beachhouse. More on this project later Ken Betts reported on the excellent progress ho and his committee are making on tho frsh Derby scheduled for Feb. 18 and 19. 1967. Tickets are available from any member of tho club or at the business houses. Bill Walter was appointed trustee to fulfill tho term left vacant by Bill Gloeson. The club voted to adopt the • hanging the fiscal year to Jan 1 Dec. of each year, which means dues are payable, starting Jan. 1. 1967. The next mooting will probably be held Sunday. Jan. 8. instead of New Year's Day. the date the meeting would normally occur.
