Kenmore Community Club building is for rent, and you the club members are the sales people who need to be talking to your friends and relatives, letting them know we have a facility available for their next party or event. We can accommodate 128 persons with tables and chairs set up. We have kitchen facilities. In nice weather there is the fenced yard. Remember, the rent pays the way, so let's get out there and talk up some rentals.

MEMBERS CORNER

TRAVELERS

We hear that Nancy and Phil spent a week camping at Mt. Rainier National Park and got back in time for the potluck.

ALL ON THE ROAD TO RECOVERY

Helen Warburton is home and getting cabin fever and feeling pretty darn good.

Saw Russ Evans the other day, he said he is coming around and it is nice to be on the mend. But there was a little hurt involved and he is glad that it is history.

Welcome back Marlene, it was nice to see you at the pot luck and know that you are up, about and beginning to slowly get back to your old self. We know there are still lots of trips to visit your Doctor and Physical Therapy sessions. Hang in there!!!!

LuciBelle also attended the pot luck and it is good to see how well she is doing. Good to see Bob also.


HOPELINK

There is still an urgent need for non-perishable food donations or cash throughout the year. You can help at any time if you are able. Please bring donations to the club at our potluck or contact Pat or Marty Askelson at 425-488-1500.


BRAINSTORM IDEAS

At the April potluck the members present discussed activities and decided on the following two events. Start saving and collecting for the garage sale.

COMING SOON !
Garage Sale on Aug 21 & 22
Pancake Breakfast & Car Show, Sept. 12

Reminder: No one has stepped up to help with the non-scheduled ideas from the April meeting and they won't happen unless we get some volunteers to take the lead:

- Dance with DJ
- Needlework or Quilt Show
- Adopt a Street
- Farmers Market
- Casino Trip
- Bingo Night
- Flea market
- Clean-up party in city parks or streets.

OK, these are the ideas, now let's see some action. We will have an open discussion on these suggested topics on Wednesday Pot Luck in August.

"THERE ARE LOTS OF WILLING PEOPLE AROUND, SOME ARE WILLING TO WORK AND SOME ARE WILLING TO WATCH THEM WORK"

  JULY 2009 PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Month number seven already and it seems as though the year just started yesterday. Mother Nature is being kind to us with this perfect summer weather for the Kenmore based "Non-Profit Organizations 6th Annual Picnic" hosted by the Kenmore Community Club. Again this year it will be held on the second Wednesday in July to correspond with our regular pot luck night. We will have hot-off-the-grill hot dogs and polish franks both mild and spicy, and all the pot luck selections and other picnic type foods.

The Askelson/Straw Ramp

Marty Askelson and Les Straw have taken on a project that will greatly improve the accessibility of the club house for those visitors and renters confined to a wheel chair or have trouble traversing a set of stairs or steep incline. Marty started the project by setting the post and laying out the concrete forms. Les Straw and Marty on a Sunday morning constructed a drain field and readied the ground with gravel for the concrete pour which was completed on Tuesday June 30th. Every member should tip their hat and give both men a pat on the back for all their work. A job well done and much appreciated.

Please continue to use caution in our construction zone at the front entry way. It will be a little inconvenient until we finish our ramp entry.

This month starts our new e-mail newsletter service. Those members who have provided their e-mail address will receive their newsletter a day or two early as it will be e-mailed when it is processed for the regular mail delivery. For those who do not have e-mail service you will continue to receive your newsletter via your regular mail service. If you do have e-mail but still want to receive your newsletter through the regular mail let us know. Thanks to all who have signed up for the new service.

Don't forget "HopeLink" and bring some canned food for our donation box. In this time of real need those of us who can help are appreciated by those in need.
-LGE


The nation's finest men and women who volunteer to serve in the armed forces are stationed all around the world to support friendly countries and protect our country's interest in those lands. Please give a moment of your time and say a little prayer for these brave volunteers who are serving in this nation's military.


JUNE ATTENDANCE INCENTIVE DRAWING

The $20.00 June winner would have been Greg Pruitt. We looked over the 26 members who were eating dinner, but no Greg. We called Greg's name but he did not respond, so the pot goes to $25.00 for the August meeting. Good luck to all who attend.


June Washington State Quiz answer (Geography)

Where is found the largest collection of branding irons in the country?
Answer: Asotin County Museum (Ref: Washington Trivia pg 190)

July Washington State Quiz (Geography)

What Washington State town shipped a twenty-two-ton lump of coal to the 1893 Chicago World's Fair? (Answer Ref: Washington Trivia pg 34)

Be the first to give the president a correct answer at the potluck and he will give you a Kenmore Flag 4" X 6"


LAWN CUTTING CHORE

Thanks go Joe Loutsis for cutting the lawn after being well fed at the Wednesday evening potluck, and Ed Straw for this week's mowing.

NAME TAGS

It was suggested that we provide name tags for our members and wear them on potluck night so new members can learn all our names and those we don't see very often will be recognized when they attend. We will have a sample for our next pot luck which is also our Kenmore Non profit Organization Picnic.
