Bill's Corner by Pres. Bill Muffi

May at a glance:

What a great job Debbi Matthews did organizing and running our club's annual Middle School Most-Improved Student Appreciation Night. Thank you Debbi!

And Christine Semon also pulled off another great event - our club's annual K- Family Night where we met, visited with and heard from SLP members from Tuscarora HS, Walkersville HS, and Middletown MS. Thank you Christine!

I want to take a moment to also thank Mick Hickman for covering for me during the days I was unable to attend the club meeting.

Remember to sell raffle tickets. You can sell up to June 11th. The drawing will be held at our club's annual Pig Roast/Gov. visit on June 12th. Please be sure to attend!

Remember membership. Bring a friend whenever you can.

Please keep Charlie Mertz, Brenda Edwards and Connie Edwards in your thoughts and prayers for speedy recoveries.

By the way, congratulations to new Gettysburg Tour Guide, Phil Pople. From what my spies tell me, Phil is having just too much fun! Here he is modeling his new uniform!


Member Eric Gatrell Promotes Club on Television


A sharp-looking Eric Gatrell took the Comcast studio by storm as he was interviewed recently on Channel 45's Frederick County Newsmakers - a 5-minute spot that promotes local non-profits. Now that he is on the Internet, we can watch him every day and not have to wait for the next club meeting! Go here to watch Eric in action:
