The December meeting of the Starlite FCE was held at the Yeager Building on the Bourbon County Fairgrounds.  Before the meeting, the members assembled thirty-six gift bags for the Tri-Valley clients.  Each bag contained a Christmas mug with a bag of Chex mix, cocoa mix, popcorn, socks, gloves, and a candy cane.

President Glenda Miller called the meeting to order, Vice President Joyce Allen led the members in reciting the Pledge to the American flag and the Club Collect.  Fourteen members were in attendance and reported fifty-nine volunteer hours and that they had recycled forty-five pounds.  The minutes of the previous meeting were read, corrected and approved.  Doris Ericson presented the Treasurer’s report.  Doris announced that she had the Christmas cards ready to send to the Veterans Hospital.

Old business consisted of a report that the Christmas tree for the Christmas tree contest had been decorated and that pictures are available to see on the Presbyterian Village web site.

New business of taking up a collection for Preferred Living in lieu of Christmas presents was announced and an envelope was passed around to collect the donations.  Glenda also announced that the books for next year are in and need to be filled out.  Karen Peery, Joyce Allen and Betty Johnson volunteered to fill them out and will be available at the January meeting.

Letha Johnson moved that the meeting be adjourned, Taylor Bailey seconded the motion, meeting adjourned.

After the meeting the club enjoyed a wonderful carry in dinner and played the game right, left, center to the enjoyment of all.
