OCPAC Awards Banquet

Friday is the big day for the first annual OCPAC awards banquet. While it is too late to take advantage of the $5 discount, it is NOT too late to attend. The cost to attend for a dues paying member of OCPAC or any of their family members is $20 each and the cost to attend for a non dues paying member is $25. We will turn our final attendance number into our caterer by noon on Thursday. You may bring a check (to OCPAC CLUB) or cash to our meeting on Wednesday or put a check in the mail by Wednesday. However, we must have your name to be able to attend. Therefore, send me an e-mail that you are attending charliemeadows7@gmail.com or call (405) 348-9991 during the hours of 9:00 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. from now through Thursday at noon.

At this time we have about 150 reservations. There is parking all around the building, but please enter the main door on the West side of the church.

BOND (Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny) www.bondinfo.org . Reverend Peterson
has agreed to waive his normal speakers fee, but an opportunity to contribute to Bond (a 501
