As summer winds down, we hope everyone had a refreshing break. It feels like only yesterday it began!

Reflecting on the past year, while we faced a couple of speaker cancellations, our pizza party was a definite highlight. It was wonderful to connect with everyone and enjoy good conversation and lunch.

Looking forward, we have some exciting meetings planned:

September 9, 2025:
Our next meeting is just around the corner, featuring speaker Joel Greenberg. Members are encouraged to come prepared with questions for an engaging session.

November 18, 2025:
Please note a change for the November meeting —
It will be held on the third week of November this year. Our speaker will represent iPods for Wounded Veterans.

December 9, 2025:
And looking ahead to the festive season, mark your calendars for our Christmas Party!
A big thank you to Bernie Kobel for generously donating his Santa Claus suit to the club.

In closing, the thought of the day is by Dale Carnegie:
“You never exceed in success unless you like what you are doing.”

If you have any questions or feel anything was missed, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

We look forward to seeing everyone at the September 9th meeting!
