Bourbon Basket for End Polio Now on August 15th.
Please help to make our Club basket a big winner with additional items.  Currently, it has 4 bottles of Bourbon, 4 Glencairn glasses and Chocolates.  We are seeking other items to add in order to help it draw a large interest and donation for the event.  Please let me know if you would like to contribute.  Thank you to those that have already made a contribution for this worthy cause.  The event is the 15th, but due to my travel schedule I would like to submit it by August 11th.
 
Please send all social media items to Annie.  She is doing a great job keeping our Facebook page updated. Please send any pictures of projects or events to her so that we can get people excited about our club.  Speaking of social, every month with a 5th Wednesday, we replace our morning meeting with a social gathering in the evening. 
 
A friendly reminder to all new members with blue sheets, our board meeting is the second Friday of every month.  Our next meeting is Friday August 8, 2025 at City Hall at 7:15 am.  All members are welcome. 
 
Service before self starts with you doing service, let's get out there and make a difference!!
 
Please sign up for the adopt-a-spot weeding at the next meeting or see Marty for open spots.
 
Thank you!!

I would also like to ask your clubs to please donate a basket for the Silent Auction to further raise funds for the End Polio Now Campaign. In the past baskets with sports memorabilia, tickets to sports or cultural events, adult beverages, regional specialties, handcrafted items have done very well.

Albert
