Commerce mixer. There was discussion about possible
handout materials. Don Medley has a limited number of
brochures from KI and Bob Gaboury will update the

that might be interested in membership to join us for a
meeting. The mixer will be held on January 23, 2007.

NEW
BUSINESS:

possibility that the Santa suit will not be available
next year. If we plan to continue such activities at
Christmas he recommends that we purchase a suit. After
some discussion it was decided that he would check into
prices and availability and report back at the next
meeting.
Darryl Sobelman asked Walt Metcalf about something that
had been discussed some time ago, the possibility of a
second Club in Camarillo, possibly a breakfast or dinner
Club. This subject needs further study and Walt Metcalf
will contact Roy Talley about this.
There was discussion concerning having a “Special Guest
Day”. This needs more work and Bob Gaboury will prepare
cards that can be used for invitations and brochures for
the occasion.

contact.
