Brett Barnes is in Providence Hospital in Novi. He will probably be transferred to Providence Southfield tomorrow. Brett has 2 blocked arteries and an old blockage that created its own by-pass. They expect to do open heart surgery to perform a double or triple by-pass on Monday or Tuesday. Please keep Brett and family in your prayers.
Don’t forget. The Stag Event is this Sunday at 4:00 at Great Shots Backyard Bar and Games in Clinton Township. Please try to arrive a bit early so we can be ready to go when our time begins. If you would still like to go, but have not already reserved a spot please let one of us know so we can get an accurate head count.

Tri V Anniversary
April 13, 2024
Camp Ticonderoga Troy, MI
We are planning the Tri V 87th Anniversary for April 13th at Camp Ticonderoga at 5725 Rochester Road, Troy, MI. The evening will include a buffet dinner. Menu- Ceasar salad, Chicken Piccata, Mostaccioli, Roasted Redskin Potato’s, Mixed Vegetables, Coffee, Tea, soft drinks and Homemade Cookies. Tax and tip are included. Cash bar for adult beverages.
The evening will include close-up magic performed at your table and a comedy Magic stage show performed by the Magic Soiree. The reviews for the show are excellent.
Plan to arrive at 6:30. The magic at the tables will begin at about 6:45. The approximate cost will be $40.00 per person. The show will conclude at about 9:30.
This is a small venue holding about 60 people. To make sure we can get in on our desired date we need to get commitments soon. We will also need to purchase our tickets well in advance. I know it’s very early, but these shows sell out.
We will need a commitment and payment by Nov. 28 so that we can purchase the tickets. If you do not plan to attend, pleas let the committee know by Nov. 28.

The date listed for the March marbles is incorrect. It should read Saturday March 16.
Marbles
Time to play marbles again. Like last year there will not be a season long prize. We will be playing three different nights. Each night of marbles will be a standalone event. The cost each night we play will be $3.00 per person.
Marbles will be on Saturday, November 11, January 27 and March 19. Before each of these nights we will send out a notice and request that you sign up if you would like to play. If you would like to host, you can also indicate that and if your home can accommodate children. We will arrange houses based on the number of people expected to attend. Each couple attending will bring a dish to pass.
At this time please let the committee know if you will be playing on November 11, 2023 and if you would like to host.

At a recent meeting it was decided that as Tri V resumes a more normal activity schedule, that we need to reinstitute the collect if dues. Dues for this year will be $50.00 for active and local inactive members. There will be NO dues for out-state and out of state inactive members. Out-state and out of state inactive members are always welcome at any Tri V event. However, if the event has a budget those members will not receive the benefit of the budget. Please pay your dues as soon as possible.
We will once again be doing the Stag Event at Great Shots Backyard Bar and Games in Clinton Township. The event will be on Sunday, November 12th from 4-6 PM. We did not opt for the private room this year, instead we will be renting cornhole lanes in the main room. Food and beverages will be on your own. In case you were not able to go last year, Great Shots is an indoor cornhole centered sports bar. It is a great place to throw some bags, watch a game, and have a drink or two. If you can join us for an evening of fun, sign up at the October meeting or let one of the committee members know. Cost per person will be around $10 not including food or drinks.
