Chances at free dinners for two at Gianni's, The Pavilion, and Mattie's were raffled. At football playoff time, the club peddled blue and white pennants and made 5130. As January came around, the members readied themselves for the highlight of the year. February 9, 10, and 113 six foreign exchange students from around Iowa spent the weekend in Urbandale.
