She was a 1945 graduate of Trotwood-Madison High School. Margaret was a popular Dog Obedience Trial Judge, a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, and a recipient of the Congressional Gold Medal of Honor for her service in the Ohio Civil Air Patrol. Margaret is survived by two daughters: Janet (Tom) Jones of Union and Carolyn Davidson of Paradise, California; three grandsons: David and Daniel Jones of Union and Joshua Siegel of Paradise, California; one granddaughter: Deanna Jones of Clayton; and two great-grandsons Ethan and Austin Jones of Clayton.

Rally Signs missing!
Rally signs have not been returned. They have been stolen by a member. I will have to replace them. Curt will check the tape to pinpoint the theft. More than a dozen signs have been taken. I will be locking them up. This is very disappointing that a member has stolen club property and disrupted classes.

Missing Equipment
It appears that Rally signs are being taken from the sign box and kept by someone. Signs are missing now that were there in Monday evening. The was a Rally class this morning and the instructor did not have the signs she needed.
The Rally equipment, including the signs, belong to the club and stay at the club. I will lock it up if I have to.
I will confer with Curt to review video to ascertain who took the signs. The signs must be returned immediately.

I’d strongly recommend that you log in and check your information in the shiny new directory. You can also now add a photo for the new directory.

The Women’s Room floor – Our apologies
We’re hoping that the “Men’s Room” can be shared for a while with the procedure: Crack the door open and call out…before going in. (After all, on Springfield Street we shared.)
(Explanation: We often fix and build floors in our apartments. 90% of the time we work with ceramic or hardwood floors; but sometimes with vinyl – so we thought it would be easy. We bought a leveling compound that is supposed to dry quickly – but it turns out to be too deep in some places and dries slowly. If someone stepped in it, everything would be ruined. When we do finally lay the tiles, the adhesive will need time to dry and the whole area of new tiles will need to be left alone. Really sorry.)
