Club Picnic
It will take place on Saturday August 4th
at La Mesita Park It will start officially at 8am and I believe
we will have a table or two reserved at the south end of the park.
To find the park go to 8881Dallas St. from Fletcher Parkway and
go west onto Dallas. The park is on the left just before you cross
over the freeway. The Hot Dogs and Burgers are from the club but
please bring a favorite dish to share with the group. See page 8
in the July Counterpoise for more details. |

He/She also posts what the item being bid on is and an optional
minimum bid i.e. $20.00.
• Everyone that is participating
in the auction privately writes down their WAMO number, Call sign

• The winner will be announced when
we resume after break. Cash or check (payable to A.R.C.E.C.) must
be paid in full prior to the end of the meeting the day of the Silent
Auction. Auctioneer will then hand item(s) to the winner.
The auctioneer posts ONLY the person who won, the price, and time
