The date for this year's annual Family Day has been set. It will be held on Saturday, September 13th. This is a day of fun, food, and fellowship, all courtesy of the council. Hope to see you there.
There were 36 ladies and 25 members in attendance for the Ladies Appreciation dinner on Saturday, August 23rd. All who attended, certainly enjoyed the meal and the fellowship. A BIG BIG THANK YOU to brothers Larry Buehler, Jim Giesmann, Jerry Schnyder, Mike Yerion, Mike Saali and wife Shirley.
On the annual dues notice, there are two voluntary assessments listed, one for $7.50 for the Religious Information Bureau and one for $5.00 for local Catholic Education Fund. We hope all will be generous. The financial secretary has recently sent out second notices to those members in arrears and asks that the members pay as soon as possible.
The 12th Annual Charity Golf Classic was held on Friday August 8 at the Warrenton Golf Course. The golf chairmen gratefully thank all of our volunteer workers, the golfers, hole sponsors and contributors who again made this a great day. We were again blessed with a great workforce and great weather. (We must have a few brothers with some influence up there!) While there are still a couple of bills outstanding, it is clear that we will net a profit of more than $12,000, a new record. Also, we reached a new level of over $100,000 over 12 years of tournaments. Again, thanks to all! “It’s never too early to think about next year…mark your calendar for the second Friday in August, which will be August 13, 2004.”
There were 12 men’s and 4 ladies teams from the council who competed in the annual horseshoe tournament in De Soto, MO, on August 17th and 18th.
