Scout Troop Presents Flags
 
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.
Dr. Coyte Cooper
Dr. Coyte Cooper is a bestselling author, international speaker and high performance coach who is one of the premier experts in the area of leadership and maximizing human potential. A former NCAA Division 1 All-American, college professor and the current founder/CEO of Ollin Leadership.
Dr. Cooper has worked closely with thousands of proactive professionals the past few years to develop a unique transformational system that helps audience members radically enhance their clarity, focus, energy, motivation, passion and results on a consistent daily basis.
 
His current career didn't start out as planned. He was a professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill working there for six years on his full time tenure when it was denied. He felt deeply confused because his yearly evaluations were solid and a good guide. So, what to do? Rather than get angry, followed by deep depression, he opened a new chapter in his life. 
 
That's when he developed three habits:  those habits start with a technology morning; followed by gratitude and the need to be positive. He starts the day listening to Alicia Keys, "Girl on Fire" which his 5 year old daughter enjoys hearing it every day. Dr. Stephen Covey, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and that was the start of Ollin Leadership, reach your peak potential.

Worthy Contributions
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
As one of Kevin's last meeting actions was to give Tracy her Board Service gift given to the other Board members during the Annual Meeting and installation banquet.
