ZITI ZITI ZITI! Sell tickets! Bring baked goods for the bake sale. Bring your own refreshments and avoid the Diplomat’s overpriced liquor. Front room servers, greeters, etc are asked to wear dark pants, neat shirts or blouses for a polished appearance. Workers are asked to find a fill in for their work position if they are stepping out to visit with friends and family. Park on the west side of the building and leave the front parking for our guests.
Dick Baart states that most of the table wine is of average quality. Some higher end wine will be available for sale. Bring your own if you want top grad vino. Excess wine will be sold at cost to Rotarians after Ziti is over.
Sue Edgett is the Dining Room Captain. She will be contacting the dining room crew to coordinate schedule and assignments.
Volunteer your children for Riley’s Posse to sell raffle tickets throughout the dinner. This raises several thousand dollars each year and is a lot of fun. Bring about $20 in ones to join in on the fun.

ON THE LIGHTER SIDE
Exciting Historical information you need to know
about shipping Manure:
As the stuff was stored below decks in bundles you
can see what could (and did) happen. Methane began to build up below decks and
the first time someone came below at night with a lantern, BOOOOM!
