    OCTOBER 2013

          Our first meeting of the NEW College Club Year is a forward-looking talk about the “Business Outlook for the Town of Lockport” by David Kinyon, the town’s Economic Development Coordinator. City residents should listen up, too, as David plans to cover development on Transit Road; the expansion of Yahoo’s Data Center and jobs, and the “Flight of Five”.
          We will meet at 7 PM Thursday, October 3, at the Lockport Town & Country Club for dessert. Cost is $12. The hostesses:  Dee Morotchie and Ann O’Byrne.  Feel free to bring a guest to this meeting or any future ones.
          RESERVE: Call your telephone lady by 8 PM Sunday, September 29.

          The Board welcomed Jeannine Benoit as our new Ways & Means director. A member since 2000, Jeannine already has some “fashionable”
ideas for our April 2014 fund-raiser.  Our “basket ladies” ask that you bring any baskets to the meeting so they may fill them for April’s event.

Changes after October will be in the Megaphone.
