| Opening Act |
In
the absence of Queen Daphne, Adam Bain filled in and called the meeting to
order. As always, entertainment was
provided by Jonathan Turner and his Stone Street Strummers Banjo Band.
John
Califf gave an announcement on how Daryl Townsend has been faring. Daryl is back home from the hospital but
still is in the recovery phase of some very strenuous procedures. A card was being circulated, and if you'd
like to contact Daryl directly, I'm sure he would appreciate it.
Dave
Umphrey reminded us that on April 19, our Club will have the opportunity to
participate in the Children's Therapy Telethon.
There will be future announcements on this, but our Club's block of time
will run from approximately 4:00 to
5:00. Contact Dave if you
would be interested.
We
were also informed that on April 25 at 8:00
a.m., Rod Jennings and his organization will have a project in
which we can participate.
Bill
Nelson gave us a reminder that our program next week will be watching ourselves
stuff Easter eggs for the Park District's annual Easter egg hunt. The hunt itself will occur April 4 and all
that are able are invited to participate.
Order
blanks are available for Rose Day on April 22.
Liz Loveless reminded us of the NAMI Walk scheduled
for May 2 on Credit
Island. Contrary to past experience, Liz has been assured by a variety of clergy members
that the weather will be great and it will not be necessary to bring along your
snorkel and flippers.
In
Fun and Fellowship, the Kartel won the preliminary prize. The Kartel also drew the lucky number to
participate in the grand prize but, try as he might, Gary Miner wasn't able to
snatch victory from the Mike Bell Jaws of Defeat.

| The Feature Attraction |
The
program was presented by Samantha DeYoung of Rock Island County Animal Care and
Control. The presentation involved a
brief opening on the facilities themselves, where the center is at, and its
capacity for animals. We were informed
of what services are provided at the shelter, including vaccinations and
spaying. Also discussed were funding of
the shelter, how animals come in, how matches are made with their humans,
volunteer opportunities, and a few brief words on QC Paws.
