Traveling Gavel
Traveling Gavel Alex - Captured Oct 20, 2009
October 20, 2009 - After nearly a year of living with The Bureaucrats Club #790849 in Poughkeepsie, Alex the traveling gavel is moving down the road and will be residing with Hudson Valley Orators #1353091. The raid was successfully carried out this afternoon by HVO members: Janice Parker, Karin von Känel, Deanna Dunn and Adam Izzo. I challenge other Area 1 clubs to raid the HVO club and provide Alex with sanctuary from the Poughkeepsie Police Station's Community Room...Break him out!
See you next month in Saratoga!
