From the East:

Happy Summer Days my Sisters and Brothers. We are finally getting the hot summer we have all been waiting for.  This special bulletin is so we can initiate new members this summer as noted by our wonderful secretary.  Hope you can come and welcome them in.  Stephen and I have had a wonderful year starting with a special meeting to get in new members, and I guess this is the way we are going out.

So come on out and brave the excellent air-conditioning we have to offer. Cheers!

In Star Love,

Nancy and Stephen

As always, so that none shall be forgotten, please contact the Worthy Matron or Secretary as to any sad or glad tidings!
