OUR NEXT MEETING – WEDNESDAAY OCTOBER 21, 2009
Current Assembly Officers:

Cristian Vidrascu Vice President
Joe Tessmer, Secretary and Assembly Reporter

SEPTEMBER’S MEETING:
Al Cohen performed and gave a lecture to a packed house. A few photographs are attached. Al seemed to enjoy the talk as much as the audience. A big THANK YOU to Al from Assembly 23.
OCTOBER’S MEETING
The McClendon Room has been reserved for dinner and the general meeting. All compeers are encouraged to join us for dinner.
The Theme for the October meeting is “Jeepers Creepers”. (Remember, although we have a theme you may perform something else, the most important thing is that you perform.)
THE $100 LARRY WEST PRIZE
In July 2010, Assembly 23 will have a drawing for a $100 magic-shop gift certificate. To be entered into this drawing, simply show up to the meetings. Each member in good standing at each meeting will be entered into the drawing. Every month, you have another chance to be entered, so at the end of the year those with perfect attendance should have 12 entries.
A bonus entry each month will be awarded to the member whose magic performance best exemplifies that month's theme.
DRESS CODE:
Please remember that the Assembly is a guest of the National Press Club. Gentlemen should dress in business casual or better–no Tee-shirts, shorts, jeans or flip-flops to the dinner meetings. Ladies should dress correspondingly appropriately.
ANNUAL DUES:
Dues are now past due! Dues are $10 per year. If you have not yet paid dues for the new fiscal year (April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010), you may pay the Treasurer, Dwight Redman, at the meeting or mail. Make your check payable to “Larry West Assembly 23”.
