Sergeant At Arms Celebrates Birthday

SAA Jenny’s birthday was November 30 so she celebrated with raising funds for the Sergeant's Fund. Shelley Noble was recognized for being a “Woman of the Year.” For that, no charge. During the Thanksgiving weekend, several Rotarians watched in horror as Jeff and Ethel Maxwell were caught on nationwide TV watching the Macy’s Holiday Parade. It was reported that Jeff was not wearing his Rotary pin [gasp!], which left Jenny no option but to fine the mild-mannered accountant $50.00. Another deduction for 2004!

In view of the club’s visit to Costco, Jenny had done some pretty heavy research into the kinds of merchandise the company offers. With a twist on the “To Tell the Truth” series, Jenny asked, “Which of the following four items are NOT carried at Costco?”

She offered:

a) a 500-bottle wine center

b) a rafting trip

c) an Original Picasso painting

d) a coffin

By table, each group was asked for a consensus. What doesn’t Costco sell? They sell them all! Everyone, in the spirit of the holidays, happily coughed up $1.00 and Jenny merrily deposited another $100 day for the SAA Fund.
