SOCIAL ROSTER
The latest SCCC social roster was emailed and on 2-22-10. It is typically mailed out after club
meetings, if changes occurred.
If you need a copy or want to be on the Social
Roster, you need to fill out the Social Roster form and only the information
you want available to fellow members and submit to Jimmy Mistretta.
MI2AZ@aol.com
NOTE: The information on the Social Roster is for
personal use only and not to be shared outside the club.
REMEMBER Your Radios! (New members in
particular):
Sometimes you will see the phrase to “remember your radios!” Typically when we caravan, we use Motorola
Talkabouts (or equivalent) to communicate between cars. You don’t need them, but they sure come in
handy!
Upcoming Events
ANNIE OAKLEY SURE SHOTS
A few of the ladies
have expressed an interest in shooting instruction so Tom Visinho has contacted
Ben Avery Shooting Range to see what they have available.
Here is what they
have:
The Annie Oakley Sure Shots program was designed by women and is
hosted by women. It is held on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday evening of each month
from 6 to 9 p.m.
Tom has been in contact with Nanci Hays and if we provide a list
of the women and email addresses she will work with us to have a class in which
all the ladies would be able to participate together rather than having each
person register individually and not be assigned to the same session.
It is a free program, at least for the first 3 sessions.
Anyone interested, contact Carol or Tom Visinho and they will make
the arrangements.
