Another cool July morning!

This morning we welcomed back Dennis from his vacation and pleasantly reminded him to be prepared for the 23rd! We also want to wish D. Fryer a very happy birthday for the 25th!
We welcomed the fabulous Elizabeth Bennett this morning, she brought Stateside wishes and reminded us about the Kiwanis foundation and all its work it does. She also has a 'cause' you can donate to, at par, to help support the Foundation!
Meeting business and updates that were discussed:
  • Peter reminded us of the great game between the BC Lions and the Saskatchewan Roughriders
  • Soup Kitchen information was circulated
  • Memorial for Major Larry Farley will be Sunday August 7 at 2pm at the Salvation Army Church
  • September 21 is the next SIGN dinner
  • Sheila has Installation and Pig Roast tickets - the challenge is for everyone to bring a friend and grow Kiwanis
  • George provided us with an update from the trailer this past weekend! It was a great day from what we hear and the crew did a wonderful job! Thank you everyone for all your hard work!
  • Criminal Record checks need to be brought in! Do not forget!
Our program today was from Habitat for Humanity, (for more information closer to home use this link Habitat for Humanity Upper Fraser Valley) which has now been allowed to expand to Chilliwack (previous border line was Abbotsford) they are looking forward to working here in Chilliwack and have taken over the old H.Y. Louie building. Their official launch date is in early October, but they are starting their campaign to gather trades, materials, money and volunteers now. They are quite the organization that prides themselves on "Building Homes - Building Hope"!

Next week we have Bowls for Hope as our guests and I hope everyone continues to enjoy July!
See you all soon!

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

We started off today mellow and light, which cannot be said for the weather with those dreary black clouds rolling in. We had some updates from the DCM last night in Sumas, Washington, a great time to reconnect with the other clubs in the area.
We have had a change in day for Kiwanis One Day which will be on October 22 (big change as it is usually in April). We also had a reminder about our 8th Annual Installation and Pig Roast on August 13, 2016. The challenge was put out to bring a friend to this event to showcase all we do and have some fun! 
July 16, the trailer crew is looking for more volunteers to help at the Hot Rods and Classics Show, hope to see you there!
August 13, is also our soup kitchen morning! So we will need all hands on deck to help with Installation & Pig Roast set-up and soup kitchen.
Our guest speaker this morning was from the Mt Cheam Lions Club, a great little presentation on their Centennial Legacy Project - two new phacoemulsification systems for cataract surgery at the Chilliwack General Hospital. Their goal is $600,000 and they are about half way there. This project is to help keep wait times down while increasing accuracy and quality of life. They have an upcoming raffle, gala and golf tournament all in support to raise funds for this worthwhile cause. For more information you can find it by clicking here.
We finished off with Happy Bucks, stories and a slew of great toad jokes to celebrate the great toad migration in Ryder Lake.
We hope to see you out on Saturday for trailer support, till next time, for the Good of Kiwanis have a wonderful week!
