DECEMBER UPDATE

First off a big thank you to Brian for hosting the November meeting of the NOBG.

As we are in the midst of the holiday season it was decided that there would be no meeting of the NOBG in December. We are going to start our regular schedule back up in January 2011. I would like to say THANK YOU to all the members and friends of NOBG for a fun 2010.

We will be electing new officers at the January meeting so anyone who is interested is welcome to nominate members or themselves to serve. At this time we have three positions that we will be trying to fill. These positions are: President, Vice President and Secretary. We will be posting a description for all three positions in the next few days. Anyone interested in helping out the club in any way is welcome to be a part of our governing comittee.

HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON !

See you all again in 2011 !
