Hello, readers. Maggie here. Yes, I'm doing the little intro this time for the newsletter. Yay! Well, this time there will be more games for you all to play and a few reviews on some new additions to the club's library. We’re also very happy that you’re all taking more interest in the newsletter! Keep it up!
I'd like to take this opportunity to let everyone know that in the August edition of the newsletter, I will start a 6 regularly released comic! Before then, I hope to Credits have, maybe, a little Editor: Kim Johnson preview or something, but Journalists: Maggie Ruiz, for now there is a fan art piece of "Fafner" which Katie Ruiz, Anne Marsh, the anime library will be Charles Mitchell & Judy receiving soon. I just Moua happen to have watched this anime series already and no one will be disappointed! I drew that "Fafner" fanart a year ago, but it's just a little something for you all to check out! Enjoy! 4 4 5
I would also like to quickly remind you all to please go to th the Merced County Fair this summer! It starts the 19 I believe so don’t miss out! And for a little shameless selfpromotion, my artwork will be displayed at the fair, too, so
please go see them! Remember they’ll be by “Maggie Ruiz”! Also, one of club members will be leaving us for college in another state. G’bye Bonnie! ~tear~ We’ll miss you. So in honor of her leaving we will turn the picnic into a farewell party and then return to Kim’s house for a DDR party!!! Have a good one everyone! Laterz!
UPCOMING EVENTS In the next month or two will be treating the members of the club to the movies and to bowling. We will be going to see “Howls Moving Castle”. We aren’t sure of when this will happen but it will be happening in a few weeks. Thanks for your support as club members. We will also be having a picnic on Friday, July 22, 2005. Everyone will be meeting at Kim’s House and then moving onto the park for our picnic and pictures. A list of items that we will need will be posted on the bulletin board.
LIBRARY NEWS The limitations for the library will change from two (2) manga, four (4) dvds, two (2) cds to just six (6) items total from the library. Fees will also change from $4.00 per dvd per day to $1.00 per dvd per day, $3.00 per manga per day to $1.00 per manga per day and $2.00 per cd per day to $1.00 per cd per day with a maximum of 100 points deducted for late items. However, all charges regarding damaged merchandise will remain the same.
CLUB NEWS Hello club members ^_^ Here are the fundraisers and what about you need to sell to get the 50 points per month. • Scented Candles: 13 half pint candles • Dutch Mill Flower Bulbs: 20 items • Sweets & Treats: 25 items So there you have it! Try your best. The next issue with club policies, etc: We must decide on a permanent day of the week for the anime club meetings unless we have two meetings a week. Example: Monday & Friday meetings. I really don’t feel comfortable having two meetings a week just yet. So I would like for the meetings to be on Saturdays if the majority of the club can attend on a Saturday. It would have to be early in the day and end before 8:00pm.
