the volunteers at the FOP lodge after the picnic.

Another sheet to sign up anyone that is willing to help, such as your
spouse. We need volunteers, probably 15 or more. Volunteers will receive a
shirt so we need their shirt size.

should plan to be there by 9:30am.

Larry

Detroit for a Tiger game. Dean Trailway’s has offered a special rate on Aug
20 or Aug 21 for $75. This includes transportation to and from Detroit and a
$52 ticket to the game. Seats are between home and 1st base. We
need at least 40 people and it appears that would not be a problem. The
games are with Cleveland at 7:05pm.

this. On the evening of May 27 Rob Haney and Bryan Crenshaw will be
presenting Elizabeth Lowry scholarship awards to two Eastern students who
will be going to MSU in the fall. We hope to have Joe Lubick and the 2
students at our meeting that day.

some. If there are singles, no problem, we will match them up. We need tee
