| Hi Guys, During our most recent board meeting the topic of activities and events was discussed. As a group we have great monthly recurring activities to participate in: Potlucks – check schedule on web site for date and location Movie Club – held on the 4th Thursday of each month Book Club – on the 2nd Tuesday of the month Bowling – held on the 3rd Monday each month These activities are fun and a great way to get together with other group members in a more casual setting than our Friday night meetings. On the events side of the calendar we only have one item listed; the Anniversary Party held each year in September; this is a great event but the only one listed for this year. Would you like to see 2 or 3 events added to the calendar to increase the ‘fun’ factor of the group? I know I would and many of the board members thought the same. To meet the goal to add events to our calendar we have formed an ‘Events Committee’ – this committee will oversee the Anniversary Party and come up with a couple other events for this year. Billy has volunteered to chair the committee and he is looking for other CGM members who would like to serve on the committee. If you would like to serve on the Events Committee please contact Billy he will be very happy to welcome you on board! Sam |

| Happy New Year Guys! With a new year comes a new board here at CGM and I look forward to being part of the board for 2012. The board for 2011 did an outstanding job and I want to thank each of the members for the time and effort put forth. I would like to especially thank Bob Paradis (President) for his leadership and guidance during a difficult year, he did a great job! Bill Allen (VP) who has the toughest job on the board gets a standing ovation from me for his dedication and time spent being sure we had a meeting every Friday night. It is not easy to keep this group happy and Bill did a fantastic job with his meeting program - THANK YOU BILL! I look forward to the coming year, my whole agenda for the year will be having fun! We all have very busy lives and CGM needs to be a place where we can go relax, feel supported and have a good time. During the meeting on January 6th I will be looking for your input on meeting topics and activities you feel would be fun to do this year, hope to see many members in attendance. Sam |
