Eagle Riders are Cancer Fund off and running!! Big thanks from Shireen Brothers and Sisters, I am very happy to inform you that members of the Eagle Riders have held their third meeting. We were able to finalize our By-Laws which were accepted by the Aerie and have officers in place. Our new officers are: Vice President Buck Mann, Secretary/Treasurer Kristina Scholtz, and Road Captains Mark Hines and Mark Reetz. We also had enough membership dues and members to apply for our charter. We are still taking applications as they come in. Our meetings will be held on the second Tuesday of each month, upstairs at 6:30 p.m. If you have any questions or want to join, we hope to see you. Although we are still in the building stages, I feel that we have a good start on a great group of like-minded people who enjoy motor vehicles of all kinds. I look forward to the growth and fellowship that will rise from our efforts, and look forward to working with the other clubs of the Aerie. Just a reminder that “dew rags” are considered hats and can not be worn in the dining room.
Cancer fund raiser coming this autumn We are tentatively scheduling a cancer fund-raising spaghetti and fried chicken dinner for Monday, October 14.We will settle on a date with Big Jim Centoni regarding a suitable date and silent auction for our Aerie Cancer Fund-raiser to continue a function that has been a success for many years. In the past years Big Jim has chaired this dinner on his own, but this year Bob Ainsworth will assist and hopefully help in making this dinner continue to be one of the Daffodil Aerie’s top events. We will update the actual date sometime in August or September. We are looking forward to serving you. — Jim Centoni and Bob Ainsworth
I just want to take a minute and thank everyone who has supported the Auxiliary Cancer Fund for the past three years! What a generous and giving club we are! We have raised more than $21,000 over these three years, and we have done it during grave financial times, with many of you on fixed incomes. I promised the money would stay in Puyallup, and it has! I hope it has gone to help some of our members, loved ones and friends. I will not be the Cancer Fund Chairman this next year as I needed some time off to be able to babysit full time for two of our great-grandchildren. The past six months were a challenge trying to watch them — ages 3 and 5 — and also trying to do some great fund raising for the Auxiliary. I enjoyed doing all the fun stuff, and I can’t tell you how rewarding it was to present that check to the Good Samaritan Cancer Foundation on July 14. They were so appreciative and are very endeared to our club for our contributions. Although I am chairing a couple of other things that won’t be as time consuming, I will be happy to do this again in the future! My heartfelt thanks, again, for all your support!! We are “People Helping People!!” — Sincerely, Shireen Ainsworth
