Chair Reports:

Lunch – Vote taken on Potluck vs. Catered. Catered wins by 3 votes. Next meeting the club will vote on who will cater the lunch.Field Trip – Kenworth only can accommodate tours in the afternoon or on Saturdays. The other option is Utility Vault. Another possibility is Concrete Tech. In Renton, they still need to be contacted to see if this is possible. If there are no other ideas by next week the club will vote on one of those two options.

Adopt a Road – It may rain tomorrow, so bring a rain jacket for the road clean-up. Some items should not be picked up such as needles or anything hazardous. If such items are found King County will be contacted to pick them up. Please meet tomorrow here 10 minutes before noon.

Food Drive – Barrels will arrive on Nov 8th between 10am and noon. Barry, Duane, Terry and Terry have volunteered to help move them upstairs from the loading dock in this building. Signs are being provided by Ron as a donation to the club. Other signage is in the works for the barrels. Someone will wear a sandwich board and walk around the campus informing people about the food drive. Positions will last 30 minutes and be at the time most convenient for the participant. We do not know yet if the Food for Parking Fines idea will go through.

Giving From the Heart – We have a family of three that we will be adopting this year. Gift wrapping part will be scheduled when we are closer to the date and know the day that we will be shopping.
