Our next meeting will be on July 16th at 11 am in the Pole Barn at the Altmar Hotel. This meeting will be followed by our Annual Pig Roast at 1 pm also in the Pole Barn at the Altmar Hotel.

"Special Thanks"

We want to extend a very special thank you to Bobby Wheeler of the Townhouse for all his support and help to put on our First Tradeshow. He not only gave us unlimited use of his property, but did not charge us a cent for anything. The Vendor Spots were free to us, the electricity and water, plus he mowed all the property. We certainly owe Bobby a tremendous amount of gratitude. The Townhouse has backed us 100% from the beginning. They put on a Spaghetti Dinner for us last year with NO expense to us, and is planning another one this year. Now we have a chance to really thank him! The Townhouse is putting on a Wing Fest on July 9th offering 100 different varieties of wings. The Wing Fest will start at 4 pm and go till 9 pm, immediately followed by the Kane Band. Please keep this event in mind and try to attend.

Another special thank you to Chester Vrooman, one of our Board of Directors, for his donation of a large tent for two days at the Tradeshow. This tent provided a place to sit in the shade for many people to eat their chicken. It really was a blessing. Thank you so much Chester. ALSO, a special thank you to all the good members who came and helped before, during and after the Tradeshow. It was a hot job. We learned a lot this year and maybe next year we will get a better turn-out of spectators. It was pretty HOT! We also have another special thank you to Les Huntley of the Great White North Trading Post in Williamstown who was a vendor at our show, but also donated a Muzzle Loader to the Club to be raffled off. This is approximately a $170.00 gun. Thank you so much Les. We also had another Vendor donate two beautiful hanging baskets of flowers. Thank you to Brad Kennedy from C & B Farm & Garden in Oswego.

News

As you all probably know by now, our Trails are open full time until October 1st. Thank you for being so patient. We still need help on all our work details if we are going to continue to build more trails, so keep the times in mind and try to do your share. You can call any one of the Coordinators or check the work schedule at Little Lukey's. The new maps are also available at Little Lukey's for $5.00 ea.

A reminder to all: Our 50/50 raffles that we have at every meeting and every function is used solely for the purpose of covering some of the expenses that are endured by our officers. Such as gas to go to many meetings and numerous long distance phone calls which should not be paid out of the member's pockets. Thanks for the help. Our annual Pig Roast is coming up so please try to participate in making it a success. It is one of our Major Fund Raisers.
