The Opening Act
|
Club
President, Adam Bain, presided over the May 24 meeting. Once again, Jonathan Turner provided the
entertainment with the assistance of his Kiwanis Glee Club.
The
announcements started with Dick Fislar's reminder of his Memorial Day
party. Dick and his wife will be
graciously sponsoring a joint Kiwanis/Rotary picnic at his home from 12:00 -
4:00 on Monday, May 31. Dick and Mary
will be providing the meat portion. Simply bring yourself, your guest, a dish to share, and a swimsuit if
you wish to dunk yourself and your food.
Adam
circulated the song leading and invocation list sign-up for the next several
weeks. Please help out in this regard if
you're so inclined.
Yes,
there will be another Peanut Weekend. Contact Tom Plechaty if you are able to assist over the weekend of June
4 and 5.
On
the subject of Terrific Kids, a pizza party was held with the Frances Willard
School group last week. There will be
another one this week at 11:30 at Thomas Jefferson Grade School.
Gene
Smith took the opportunity to remind us that it's Birdies season again.
In
the Happy and Sad Dollars area, we heard that Dave Luft will be reassigned by
the Salvation Army in the next month and that he will be leaving our membership
at the end of June. Alicia also brought
to our attention some upcoming surgery for her husband, Ray. We can keep both of these gentlemen in our
thoughts and prayers.
From
the last Peanut Weekend, Mike Bell reminded those who still have peanuts for
which they had signed up earlier to pick them up before the next batch makes
the scene.
In
Fun and Fellowship, the Kartel won the preliminary prize, which it eagerly
accepted. The Kartel also won the
opportunity to go for the grand prize, but Bob Wakefield once again got beaten
by our wiley secretary, Mike Bell.

| The Feature Attraction |
The
program was given by representatives of Fyre Lake National. They gave a fine presentation, starting with
a brief history of the Fyre Lake area and the events leading up to the Fyre
Lake National Group. Fyre Lake National
is comprised of most of the west side of the original Fyre Lake
properties. Membership was presented
with a very informative slide presentation giving an illustration of the
location of the Fyre Lake National lots, the golf course, and the many
activities and amenities in the area.
The golf course is expected to open in the spring of 2011. The course will be a public course with
special concessions made available for owners of properties in Fyre Lake.

May 31 NO
MEETING - Memorial Day
June 1 Joint meeting with Rotary

REASON #1 AS TO
WHY THE HOUSE COMMITTEE TAKES ATTENDANCE
Our caterer
accepts our attendance count as the number of meals we pay for. Since we want to pay the right amount for our
meals, it is necessary to keep track of who attends, whether member or guest.
REMINDER
There will
be no meeting next Monday, May 31. Go to
Dick and Mary Fislar's party instead. We
will meet on Tuesday, June 1 in a joint meeting with Rotary.
