Scout Troop Presents Flags
Posted by James Monroe on Jul 01, 2019
 
Our Scout Troop presented the flags at the home game of the Lake Stevens Valkyries game on Saturday, June 29th at Lake Stevens High School Stadium. The previous weekend the Troop welcomed three new members from our Pack at a beautiful crossover ceremony at Camp Edward Scout Camp. The Troop will be going to its first summer camp early next month. This would be a great opportunity to go visit them.
Worthy Contributions
Posted by Gary O'Rielly on Jul 01, 2019
Saving the best for the last meeting of President Kevin O'Brien is giving financial contributions to our local non-profits pictured here beginning  with Hungary Hearts;  Sherwood Community Services;  the Lake Stevens Senior Center and the Lake Stevens Education Foundation. They all do such awesome work in our community and our two major fundraisers are the reason our Club can give back to these community organizations.
What's Going on Here?

What's going on with El Presidente Kevin and Sergeant at Arms DJ? Trying to avoid fines when he is Past President? Your guess is as good as mine! 
Unfinished Board Business

The Singing O'Brien's
Wow, Colin and Kevin O'Brien starting the evening festivities with a song "I Like Lake Stevens Rotary" from a John Fogerty and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Enchanting and very entertaining evening.
Changing of the Guard
