During November, members delivered meals on wheels each Saturday and Sunday. Jeanette Srozinski is chairing the ringing of the Salvation Army bells. This will be done by the club on Nov. 30 and Dec. 1. Sign up at the meeting or call Srozinski. President Sherry McGuire, Cindy and Leonard Willey and Clara and Pat Willey will provide their campers to be in the Holiday Dazzle parade on Nov. 23. They may decorate after the Nov. 18 meeting. The Buffalos will be hosting the 2013 state-campvention. Members should bring ideas on location to the meeting.

The members’ prayers and thoughts are with the Dale Bayer family as he died on Sept. 18. He and his family had been longtime members. Also, James Selby of Bismarck died Oct. 20. He was the state director for Family Campers & RV’ers since 1997.
