PRESIDENT'S AUGUST MESSAGE . . .
    August luncheon at the Oyster Bay Yacht Club was great, and we enjoyed Fernandina Beach Chief of Police, James Hurley, speaking on how we can make our lives safer. The food was delicious and the location was beautiful. Please remember to let Suzanne Clements, Vice President, know if you have a concern or problem at any luncheon venue. Suzanne sets up the contracts with venues and is the Newcomers contact person at all luncheons.
    The Cocktail Party at the Amelia Island Plantation was very well planned and extra special with a band and a great group of hostesses.Thanks to Teressa Tanner, Jessica Styers, Linda Alterio, Linda Campbell, Dianne Davis, Dawn Juds, Llona Meaux, Donna Sullivan and Kathy Williams for being hostesses and a special thanks to Deeda Luallen who came up with the idea. It was a night to remember!
    Gail Moore hosted the August Coffee at her beautifully decorated home in Oyster Bay. Her talents as an interior designer are apparent throughout her home. Thank you, Gail!
    Merge Restaurant was the dinner location for Gals on the Go. I think everyone enjoyed the meal and the restaurant went way out of their way to provide us with a memorable experience.
    I’m so pleased to see Kayaking paddling around again. This is such a wonderful location for that activity. I’m also waiting to hear from those brave ladies who went tubing down the Ichetucknee Springs River with TREX. They always have such a good time and come back with such great stories. Night Owls also did a water experience this past month which turned out to have more water than expected.
    Community Service Committee is sponsoring a collection for Barnabas House Pantry, titled 10-10-10, for the collection date of October 10, 2010. Members are encouraged to donate 10 cans of food or a ten dollar check to the cause.  Committee chairs will be collecting at the September activities.  Checks should be made out to Newcomers with a Barnabas House donation on the memo line at the bottom of the check. More information for member participation will be in the October Newsletter. Nancie Waldron is coordinating this activity to benefit those less fortunate in our community. What a great idea!
         Warmest regards,
