President Craig Knobloch called the meeting of May 2 to order. Providing the entertainment, as always, was Jonathan Turner with his Mayday Emergency Singers.
There were a number of announcements. First, Queen Emeritus Daphne announced that approximately $4,004 had been collected on Rose Day, which should translate out to a bit over $2,000 coming to the Club.
Gene Smith was back on the bandwagon with his collection of Birdies circulars, so if you don't want the strong-arm approach, jump in on this project while he's still gentle.
Steve Schroder announced that the next Interclub would be at noon on May 19 in Aledo.
President Craig reminded us that Pancake Day Revisited will be held on Memorial Day in conjunction with the Rock Island Criterium. This will constitute the regular meeting for that date.
Craig also gave us a first-call announcement that the Division 17 golf outing will be held May 20 at Valley View course in Cambridge.
In Fun and Fellowship, Tom Ketelaar filled in for Mike Bell. The Kartel won the preliminary prize and elected to take the money. The Kartel also won the opportunity to go for the grand prize and managed to win this as well. Mike, we need you!
We were all delighted to celebrate with Bud Helpenstell as he celebrated 25 years of membership in the Club with the presentation of the Legion of Honor award to him. Congratulations Bud!
We were also able to enjoy adding two more members to our fellowship, Moira Vroman and Zach Edwards.
