July 2010
July is picnic time! This year’s Daffodil Eagles Picnic will be held on Saturday, July 24. The festivities will begin at 11 a.m. in Bonney Lake at the Swiss Sportsman Club again. We have expanded our picnic area to include the large gazebo with all the covered picnic tables this year! We will be cooking up hamburgers, hot dogs, bratwurst, curly fries, and fresh corn-on-the-cob! This year we will not run out of food or beer and will have plenty of shaded tables under the gazebo. There will be games and prizes for the kids and adults, a horseshoe tournament, raffles, and much more. There will be a $5 charge for all Eagle members, $2 for kids ages 6 through 20, and $7 for non-Eagle members. These charges are to help cover the costs of the food, drink, prizes and fee on the property. There are 80 RV hookups ($10 per night) and tent spaces ($5 per night) available, first come first served, starting on July 22 through 26. We have a DJ lined up for Saturday and will have a bonfire, with karaoke, Saturday night. Sunday morning, we will be cooking up French toast and ham with strawberries ($6) for breakfast! Last year, the donations for the raffles were outstanding. If you have an item to donate, please label it “For Picnic” and leave with Loni or Jackie. We were so blessed to have many Brothers and Sisters volunteer their time and energy last year, and we are asking for your assistance again. Anyone wishing to get involved, please contact your Picnic Chairpersons, Denny Sutter, Bill Bostwick or Pat Rivard.

From Your Madam President
We had a fantastic installation in May I would like to thank everyone who helped make our Installation of new Officers a special day on Sunday, May 23. The dinner was wonderful and I would like to thank Jim Anton and his crew for doing such a great job. Grand Worthy President Mike Lagervall, who is a duel member of Puyallup, will be having his homecoming at our club on Friday and Saturday, July 16 and 17. This is a great honor for us to host this event. Let’s welcome him and show him how much fun we can have! We hope to see everyone at our club picnic on Saturday, July 24. This will be our second year at the Swiss Park. I am sure it will be bigger and better than last year. Our Auxiliary meetings are the second and fourth Thursdays of the month. This year I am having a theme for each month. The theme for the non-initiation meeting in July will be “Red, White & Blue.” I hope to see some new Sisters at our meetings. — Penny Fiedler, Madam President “We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives.”
