We received a banner from the Shelter Box Program for our donations to Haiti.

At next weeks picnic in the park we will have a mini bags tourney to get familiar with running the real deal. Mystery Hand shaker- Tom Webb.

Happy Dollars Lorraine for her grandchild's weight gain, Chuck was happy just to be seen and Terje was glad to be back in the states.

F & F The Phil B's team tried to worked us over on Baggo ling questions. Baggio had to keep asking more questions as Bartmann tried collecting a $1.00 from all that had correct answers. It was impressive to see how much bean bag knowledge the club has.

Make-ups – none reported, with the attendance down there surely must be a lot in the mail.

Program Sue Krause from the Youth Service Bureau and or very own Lorraine Kopczynski of Pioneer Center. The two shared the details of the July 1st merging of these two agencies. There matching mission of providing services to empower people made this a good fit and allows Pioneer to offer services now to all ages and at more locations. Pioneer has the resources to offer help with H.R. , finance and marketing. The Youth Service Bureau will keep the same name and functions of treating around 900 youth a year and educating another 5 to 7 thousand thru school programs.

50/50 Alan had the ticket and first draw of the new batch of marbles. That's all he had, therefore the pot builds for another day.

Please take a few minutes to review the proposed new bylaws as there will be a discussion on the board will vote on the 19th of July to adopt them.
