NEW MEETING PLACE Our club has moved to Richmond Police Post.  We have had three great meetings there.  The food is catered by Richmond Community Schools and has been wonderful!  On February 20 we had three inter clubs join us.  The room was packed, and it was fun!  Can you imagine what it will be like when we fill the room with people from our own club?

NEW MEMBER We welcome Shane Prewitt, pastor of Community Baptist Church to our membership.  We look forward to getting to know him. 

WINTERFEST AND APPLE PIE We were fortunate to have a long cold spell for the beautiful ice scultpures to have a chance to shine.  Lots of people were in town on February 8 for our fundraiser.  We sold 52 apple pies during Winter Fest.  Thanks to Bev, Becky, Lisa, Patrick, John, Sharon, and their friends and relatives for their participation in this event.  We still have ten unbaked frozen apple pies in Jason Rewalt’s freezer.  Please let us know if you have a need for apple pie!  They are still selling for $7.00 each.           

K-KIDS is preparing to charter.  We have nine students who are already working on service projects.  When the banner and materials arrive, we will have a charter night to honor them.

 THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

Any religion that professes to be concerned with the souls of men and is not concerned with the slums that damn them, the economic conditions that strangle them, and the social conditions that cripple them, is a dry-as-dust religion.                       -Martin Luther King
