But really, it was beautiful, taking the time to honor our fallen soldiers that made the ultimate sacrifice for US, is a good opportunity to reflect on what’s important and freedoms and human connections are at the top of the list.

News from THE DIRECTOR OF MEMBERSHIP DEVELOPMENT Ahh…the weather is absolutely beautiful! Welcome to June of 2021! I hope everyone has taken the opportunity to enjoy this early, warm, and toasty weather we only experience during the summer. With this warm weather comes many activities throughout our county, and one of my favorite activities is golf! And speaking of golf, registration in now open. Mark your calendars for Wednesday, September 8th for our Annual Chamber Golf outing in beautiful Elkhart Lake at the Quit Qui Oc Golf Club & Restaurant! We’ll have the golf ball launcher back and ready to go, the hole sponsors I’m sure will have something up their sleeves when it comes to fun and games, and yes, the weather will be so much better than the past couple of years! It’s always a great time so don’t be left in the sand trap, get out and swing the sticks!
