ANNUAL GOLF DAY AT THE ELKS and PRESIDENT DOUG COCHRAN and House Chairperson, CORKY MATTINGLY, had trouble rounding up an American Flag so we directed ourselves to the SunDome and hopefully the Flag was there! Our meeting was short and the golf got underway.

GUESTS joining us were Ken Wilms, Mike Rudick, Harold Delia, Vern Redifer, Dick Anderwald, Russ Knight, Larry Martin, John Markland, Diane Poulin, Chuck Carroll, Chuck Huber, Steve Fisher and Don Erickson.

ANNOUNCEMENTS included a reminder of the Kiwanis Swim Meet Friday, Saturday and Sunday at Eisenhower Pool. If you have signed up -- BE THERE! Or just come for breakfast. It is a good value for the bucks and supports a good cause -- the YMCA Swim Team. Call Barb Greco if you need more information.

Yakima Kiwanis Family BBQ, July 13, 4 p.m. at the home of Amy Neal and Garon Jones. What to bring? You, your family, a dish to share and chairs. Provided for you will be meat and non-meat BBQ grilling items, face painting, lawn games, snow cones, paper plates/utensils, seed-beer and seed-soda. Address: 917 South 34th Ave. Park either on the street or at Nob Hill Elementary School.

Put on your calendar the Vintiques Bingo, a mini fund raiser, the first weekend of August. More delails to follow.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: SECRETARY VELMA CRAWFORD announced that the Board will have a special 5 minute meeting after our meeting Tuesday if there is a quoram in attendance. There was no quoram at the last Board meeting and Joe Kennish's membership needs approval and Tom Durrett's resignation needs approval. Tom is being transferred to Moses Lake and we will miss him. Come on Board Members, we need you!


UPCOMING PROGRAMS:
