e! It’s Turkey Tim November, 2013 Web Site: www.puyallupeagles.org From your Madam President From Your Worthy President
We’re heading into a busy time of the year
Aerie Trustee position open; nominees needed
Fall weather greetings to our Sisters and Brothers! We had a wonderful bus trip at the end of September to Leavenworth for the Autumn Leaf Festival! Daffodil Sisters and Brothers also had a great time at Fall Conference the following weekend in Wenatchee. We had our Halloween Sock Monkey as our mascot for the weekend — he was quite a character! Our Annual Holiday Bazaar is right around the corner on Sunday, November 3 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Breakfast will be served by the Past Presidents’ Club. There will be a turkey dinner from 3-6 p.m. prepared by Calvin and Lynn Larson and their crew. Come down for a day of shopping and eating! The Auxiliary meeting on October 10 had 27 members in attendance, plus the seven new Sisters who were initiated! I encourage every Sister to attend at least one meeting this year — some have already exceeded this goal. We have more than 1,490 Auxiliary members. Come and have some fun with us on the second and third Thursdays in November (because of Thanksgiving, the second meeting is moved up one week). As we head into the holiday season, stay safe, stay warm, and enjoy our Aerie with the many upcoming events for the busy season! Let your light shine! — Robin Sheffer, Madam President
We have another vacancy on the Aerie Board of Trustees. The Aerie voted to have nominations for this position at the Wednesday, November 6 meeting. An election, if needed, would be at the November 20 meeting. If you wish to be nominated for this position, please be at the meeting on November 6 or submit a letter to the Aerie Secretary stating you would accept the nomination and position. The letter must be in the Secretary’s hands prior to the meeting on November 6. — Leonard Blakely, Worthy President

Join us for dinner, a silent auction (donations appreciated), bottle raffles and a 50-50 raffle. We might even have horse races if the dinner sells out.
It’s almost time to ‘Deck the Halls!!!’ Saturday, November 30 is our annual “Deck the Halls” event, so let’s all come down and have a fun day making our Aerie home look like Christmas. It is a Saturday but we would like to start at 9 a.m. We hope enough members show up we can be done by noon. Remember the more hands helping the merry it will be.

Cancer fund dinner set for November 17 We are planning a New York steak and prawns with baked potato and salad dinner with all net proceeds going to the Aerie Cancer Fund. We will also plan some sort of raffle to be able to increase the amount of money we will be donating. If any of our member have an item to donate for this raffle, please leave the item (what ever it is) with our manager or Bob Ainsworth (Treasurer). The more stuff we have, the more fun the day it will be and the more money we will make The date of the dinner is Sunday, November 17 from 3 to 5:30 p.m. We will pre-sell tickets starting on Monday, November 4 to ascertain the amount of food we will have to prepare.
