FUN DAY COMMITTEE
Brenda Lewis asked when the club would have a FUN DAY, because we all love to have fun. President Jane asked for committee volunteers.
Lynn Cox, Carol Dowd Kamalbake, Naomi Johnson, Mary Wood have graciously agreed to for a FUN DAY COMMITTEE, which will tackle ideas of the things we can do together for fun, separate from our regular meetings. Thank you, ladies. Perhaps you’ll have some ideas by the May meeting?
April is around the corner and the flowers and trees are in bud. Plus love the daylight savings time as we all have more time with our pets and family. I want to encourage everyone to attend the April meeting. Lots of events coming up for the club. Spring fest and the dog show will be here soon. If you have not volunteered to help, please step up. If you want to be trained in a position, let us know your interest. These events are important to the club and it’s a great way to meet and get involved with your fellow club members. If you have ideas, let them be known. Looking forward to the meeting and bring a friend. Reports will be given by the chair people and the committee members and the officers.
