We kicked off our summer with another stint operating a voting center for the June Primary Election. It’s a great way to give back to our community and earn some funds for the club. Other clubs might want to consider it. You have at least 15 members willing to undergo a day of training and then volunteer a day or so at the polls. It’s a nice way to get some funds to support your activities. You can do something special like charter a bus, hire a speaker, or just defray the costs of dinner or outing. It’s non-partisan and it’s fun!

Events this month include our Best Mixer Ever, a birthday brunch and our biannual business meeting. Members, be sure to mark your calendar for the July 18 meeting in Presentation Hall so you can be a part of planning our future. We will be choosing a Nominating Committee to identify candidates for our next slate of officers. Lavender Friends is a club for LGBTQ residents and their allies.
