Too bad a lot of Lander Rotarians missed them.
But.. those of us that attended enjoyed them.

Here are some pics from the December 2 meeting.

	A former Casper Rotary Member and now a Lander Rotarian, Steve Liebzeit, gave a great re-classification talk .  Talk about lots of hobbies (?) that cause wear and tear on the body he has had them.  We're glad you joined us Steve.
	A prospective member, Lance Hopkin visits with member Brady Bower.
	Linda Raynolds brought her mother, May to the meeting.  It's great that May can still attend the meetings. Thanks Linda!

	Andy Gramlich had some words of wisdom for the club.
	We had better attendance at the December 9 meeting.
	And this man may be the reason why! Mike (Moose) Dabich gave the program on his years as a basketball player.  From high school under coach Gene Patch to several college teams and on to the pros. Told with humor and humility.
	Bill Sniffin displays one of Moose's latest handiwork:  string instruments made from bed pans.

 

	As usual, our beloved president passes the tin cup to collect fines.  He is getting too good at it.
	Susan Meeker is the finer on this fine day.  Of course Mark is right behind her with the dreaded tin cup.
	Linda Hudson explains to the group the schedule for ringing bells for the Salvation Army.  Again, the Lander Rotary Club raised a nice tidy sum for this worthwhile cause.

 

	The long and the short of it.  Mickey Douglas and Mike Vinich team up for a special photo.
	Patty Troutman brought her husband, Gary to enjoy Moose's presentation.
	Jackson Rotarian, Katie Murphy addresses the meeting.  Wonder if the Jackson clubs have as off-beat programs as we have in Lander.

We enjoyed a super program at the December 16 meeting

	Of Course Santa Sheriff showed up to find out who had been naughty and nice. Since he is the "high sheriff" none of us 'fessed up to being naughty!  Although we were all nice, Santa Sheriff fined every last one of us.
	Steve Liebzeit brought his Daughter, Faith and her "intended" to the meeting.  December 19th was her birthday; of course she got serenaded along with all of the rest of the birthday people.
	The Program was great.  Newest member, Sam Lightner gave his classification talk.  Sam is a climber, author, and all around nice guy.  We're glad that he joined us.  He is in the company of several other Lander Rotarians who practice that very dangerous sport of leaving all their senses behind and climbing big rocks.

 

	Sam brought his climbing buddy and wife Liz Lightner to enjoy the progam.  You guessed it, Sam and Liz met on a climbing date.
	Linda Hudson takes the mic to give the club the tally on the Rotary Salvation Army Bell ringing project.  Well done Linda!
	John Boyle is caught ringing the Salvation Army bells in front of Safeway on a frosty day.

	Ernie Over's brother Jim joined us for our luncheon meeting.  Welcome Jim.
	Santa Sheriff and Marvin Brown harmonize over a Christmas Carol.
	Bill and Nancy Sniffin seem to be enjoying the program.  Always good to see you Nancy!
