      The name "Sight Seer" (pronounced See-er) may not be familiar to most of us in the BC.  Yet.  We have invited George McDaniel, one of the great West Michigan radio voices, to tell us about the Sight Seer program here locally.  The Sight Seer is a faith-based non-profit created for people who are blind, visually impaired, or physically unable to hold or read print material.  Sight Seer for the past 28 years has been reading the printed word for those unable to access it on their own.  Their extensive and diverse audio programs are available online through their radio service and as an audio stream on Direct TV channels in select locations.     

      WELCOME: John W. Steketee, returning, and Dr. Roger Ellis as a new member!

      Invocator:    Mr. Keith D. Vandercook    

      Introducer:    James Booth Burr, Jr., Esq.

       

      Eyes:  "The sight of you is good for sore eyes."  Jonathan Swift

      From Will Rogers:  "Never squat with your spurs on."

      "There are two theories to arguing with a woman.  Neither works." 

      "Lettin' the cat out of the bag is a whole lot easier'n than putting it back      in."

      "Long ago, when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft.  Today it's called golf."
