This month’s meeting will be August 17th at 7:00pm in the Parish Center.
It’s hard to believe but the end to summer is just around the corner. The State Fair opens up in a couple of weeks and I have yet to eat my first ripe tomato thanks to Mother Nature’s fickleness.
The Twins game went well last month with the Club selling all but 2 tickets prior to the game. The remaining 2 tickets were sold at the ballpark so we did not have any left over. Everyone attending had a great, although sticky time, in spite of the teams loss.
The Rice Street Parade booth did well again this year and the table handled by the Neocatechumenal youth sold enough eggrolls to garner a matching $200 donation from the Club.
The Parish Festival is August 21st and many of the stands are looking for volunteers to help. If you can work for a couple of hours let anyone on the Festival Committee know or just show up and lend a hand. Contact information should be in the Parish Bulletin. As always, we have been asked to take care of the beer sales. If anyone would like to help with that, there will be a sign-up sheet at the meeting.
Our September meeting is going to concentrate on recruiting new members. If you know of anyone that might be interested in joining the Club bring them along. There will be more information at the meeting.
If you have any ideas for more Club events or activities, let us know. It is always fun to try new things. See you Wednesday.
