great deal of fun with us go to our website and sign up. If you don’t
golf much it is a really good time and we will be having a barbeque
dinner this year included in the golf price of $70.00 plus many prizes
will be given away at the dinner. We have a date for the tournament of
May 24th at 1:00 dinner around 5:00. Last year we had a great time out

money maker of the year and helps us with the projects we do for
downtown. So we really need your help this year. Find a foursome and

How did you like Maifest this year what a beautiful sunny weekend it
was perfect and the float from ALFA was great.
The two next festivals coming up are International Dance Fest and the
Accordion Fest.
We had an update from Tibor Lax who is on the Cities board have you
seen the new Gazebo well it looks new very nicely done take time to
look at it and thank the City when you get a chance. Also he noted
that the Project Bayern has put over $200,000 into improvements in the
downtown area we all need to thank them for their help on our town.
It is that time of year again for officers if you would like to
nominate someone for the openings of President, Vice President,

open at our next meeting the election will be in July. Also dues will

the local kids a small one but to help them in business also a mentor
program for the cascade school district.
