August 13, 2010 Presidents Corner

Hey Everyone…

I’m sure everyone enjoyed our summer break, as there was “no meeting” in July. From all reports, the Fair was a success and well attended.

Now we’re ready for the CCTA Fall Term with lots of things to do for the rest of the year. First, a reminder of our meeting at Union Twp. Civic Center on August 19th. I talked to Matt Beamer today and he said they are excited to be hosting the meeting and that everything will be ready and waiting.
Our meeting will consist of a presentation by Lieutenant McElfresh of the Ohio Highway Patrol Post of Batavia. He will be giving us an overview of the activities of the patrol as well as providing us with some interesting statistics and other information. We had the Lieutenant speak at Franklin Twp. three years ago and his message was timely and well received. Also on the program will be Martha Enriquez who will be discussing safety and the importance of seat belts and child restraints.

Bonnie Batchler has said that she will bring the door prizes as she did for the picnic at Ohio Township. Thanks Bonnie! If time permits, there could be some discussion for future topics of concern which could be put on the agenda for meetings later in the years. Joyce Richardson will be there collecting money and doing her usual fantastic job. What would we do without her?

I am very proud of the effort from all of you and would like to say thanks for all your interest, support and involvement.

More latter.

Lee
