UPDATE on our VP search – we are asking for YOUR help!  . . .  
Libby and Joanne have agreed to stay on as Co-Presidents for another year IF we have a VP in place by the end of December.  The Board has worked diligently on this and now we are asking for help from our Membership (that’s you!)  Attached you will find Vice President and President Role Descriptions for you to see how the two work together and are supported by the rest of the Board members who each work on one cog of the wheel that keeps your club functioning quite flawlessly.  Come join us at our Dec 11 Board Meeting and see for yourself how the Board works.  We look forward to welcoming one of you at the Board’s Happy New Year Brunch on Jan 4 as our new VP!  Libby and Joanne invite your questions or concerns any time.

Waypoint Christmas Gift List – the who, what, why, and where:
As in years past, we are ALSO supporting Waypoint/Family Resource Center  in Laconia. There are 29 kids this year who need us – the need is great. A lot of the families are experiencing homelessness or recently have found housing so anything they receive is truly appreciated. If you want to donate, you can buy specific things based on suggestions from the Parent Aid Director at Waypoint OR you can buy gift cards for the older kids or for the parents to use to buy gifts for their kids. 
We have divided up our membership so we can hopefully have gifts for all the children. Note that we rotate the target ages for members each year:
