As a Reminder, you must complete 10 hours of annual fairshare service prior to December 31, 2016, 5 hours of which were to be complete prior to June 30, 2016.  
 
We only have one more regularly scheduled workday prior to the end of the year.  It is on this Saturday, October 1st.  Plan to come on out and help us spruce up the club just before our annual Hospice Regatta for the benefit of Hospice of the Upstate.
 
I hope you can make this date, but if you can't, there will still be other opportunities to get your hours in by helping with the ongoing underbrushing project or numerous other tasks around the club.  Below is a preliminary task list for this weekend.  Be sure and bring gloves and dress appropriately for the task available.
