We enjoyed another round of Tony’s NH Trivia.

Raffles: 50/50 won by Peggy and she donated it to the Rabies Clinic funds

Tony was drawn for a chance to win at the Card Game, but alas the 6 of spades is still in deck and we roll $159 into next meeting. Mike suggested next time we start a new Card Game we just look for one card for all future decks. Tony suggested we Chase the Ace of Spades.

Last week was Round 2 of the Speech Contest and was held at the Lincoln-Woodstock Club. There was a lot of people attending from Plymouth, Bristol and the Lincoln-Woodstock Club. All three speeches were great and Plymouth’s Kelsey Maine came in as 1^st Runner Up and Bristol’s contestant won and will move on to the final round at the District Conference in May.

Saturday, we held the Rabies Clinic and had a wonderful turnout. Thanks to everyone who helped and to David Cote of Plymouth Animal Hospital who donated his time and shots. We raised $740!

Braden led the meeting and reviewed what the Officers and Board discussed at the Board meeting last week. The board discussed bringing the Penny Sale back, if health conditions continue to improve there is support for this.
