go to the Jim first thing every morning. From laugh factory, word play jokes

The Dryden Go-getters Board of Directors adopted a policy dated 27 September 2016 that reads as follows:
"While on the premises, alcoholic beverages may not be consumed unless Go-Getters has obtained a liquor licence for the specific event. Consumption of alcoholic beverages on Go-Getters premises puts the Organization in legal jeopardy regarding Ontario Traffic Laws." Consequently, alcoholic beverages may not be consumed at our regular General or Annual general meetings, since we do not acquire a liquor licence for these events. Thank you for honouring this request. Jack Nesbitt, DGG President
