The effective fervent prayer of a righteous
man avails much. James 5:16
On a bright and beautiful Tuesday Tony
Proffitt called the meeting to order followed, as always, by
"My Country Tis of Thee" and The Pledge of Allegiance.
Some things, however, need to stay the same! Bill Seitz gave
the invocation.
Tony moved us right into the introduction
of guests for this week Brian Sweeney a not so guest guest and
Nancy Ziglar. With a quick segue to our sick list, fortunately
short, Fr Willig and Harry Maly. Greg Hartlaub added that Harry
is at Elder Mount on Tuesdays and Thursdays and on this particular
day was in good form. That is he new Greg recalled the past
and was in good health. So it would be possible to visit perhaps
on those days or call and see how Harry is. Tony then went to
the not sick list and called on Tom Reuter who reports that his
latest checkup reveals all clear and well. Great News Tom, keep
up the fight.
Bob Rinear and Paul Hogue are the hosts
for Wednesday night's Board Meeting at West Park. Frank St.
Charles asks for help for Board meeting sponsors. Frank needs
help for August, September and October. Please see if you can
help, this and your attendance to the board meetings really are
necessary!
Dan Finke reported on Rose Bloom Boom,
Bob Rinear reports 190 tickets in the Bank. Last year we had
340 tickets sold so we're a bit behind. If you have not turned
them in please do so we know where we stand.
Dan Kipp reported that Mother Load and
Bonanza tickets are alive but not well. So those of you who
have participated in the past step up and give the mother of
all Bonanzas and Loads a shot in the be..bu.. Oh you know. Also
Dan says Tomatoes next week. Let him know how many you want.
Scott Becker reported on golf pkg. for
Gary, Sign up there are some great prizes. Tony Proffitt is
your Reservation Man for Rose Bloom Boom, so let him know how
many you need.
Lou Schroeder explained and passed around
his bag of money for raffling off at RBB. He also pitched for
silent auction items. Then he launched into some sayings that
reflect why we are so screwed up in the schools and society.
It was a good idea but a bit wanting in delivery. The next
time, put a little more enthusiasm into it or maybe get Joyce
to make the delivery.
Glad Hands went to Sandy Flick, Tom Reuter
and Bob Rinear.
Bill Seitz read a thank you letter from
Kelly Richardson. Kelly is one of two winners from Seton High
School of the Rudy Jacobs Scholarship award. A nice thank you
it was too.
We sang smile because all our songbooks
are in the shop for repairs.
Paul Hogue introduced our speaker, Tim
Bray with the new Kentucky Speedway. Tim talk was informative
and his description of the facility sounds like a place you might
want to try out at least once.
Again thanks Paul for a great program.
Well, I'm done for now but I look forward
to the camaraderie of next Tuesday's lunch meeting. Don't miss
it and I won't miss you.
