Jim
Dalton: The first Texas Hold ‘Em event we are going to do at
Trippers is coming up on Monday Aug 31, Tuesday Sept 1 and Wednesday Sept 2.
We need 2 members there at all times during the 3 days. On Monday we need 3
members there from 6:30pm to 8:00pm for a registration, I don’t have the
details on that yet.
I have
designated 7 chairpersons, we will have one on duty at all times. If you are
not a chairperson, sign up for the shift of your choice on the sign-up
sheets I have provided. We will have 2 shifts each day, if you want to
double up with someone and split a shift, we can do that. We have our
license, paid the fee and set to go.
This is
our fundraiser for the year, we need your help! If you have questions… call
me, Jim Dalton, at 324-1050.
