The Opening Act
|
The
meeting of May 10 was conducted by the officers of the Rock Island High School
Key Club. Craig Knobloch handled Club
officer duties. He began by announcing
that the program scheduled for next Monday, May 17, is to be rescheduled and in
place of the planned presenter, we would be visited by the Executive Director
of the Quad City Classic. In that same
golf vein, our May 24 program will feature the Fyre Lake golf course. Tom
Plechaty announced that approximately $1,650 was received from the Rose Day
project, and approximately $3,000 from this past weekend's peanut project. All members are to be commended for their
generosity of time and money. Gene
Smith gave his weekly pitch for Birdies for Charity. He also informed us that Monday, August 9,
would be the division golf outing. Craig
clarified two points concerning Hixson Award nominees and Lay Person of the
Year nominees. The former should be
passed on to any Board member. The
latter can be passed on to any member of the Spiritual Aims committee. Guests
included members of the Alleman High School Key Club. In
Fun and Fellowship, Joe Beatty won the preliminary prize, which he graciously
donated back to the Club. For the grand
prize, the Kartel won the chance to play but Lee Schenck, despite her best
effort, missed out on the grand prize.

The
program was given by member, Berlinda Tyler Jamison, Executive Director of the
Trinity Health Foundation. During the
course of her presentation, she addressed four questions that are often
presented to her, what the Foundation is, what it does, why it does what it
does, and why people should be interested.
