June 19th – Field Day at the Rescue Mission
Your chance to play with the kids! We’re hosting a field-day at the Rescue Mission on the playground sponsored by the club in 2007. Patty Gentry came up with this idea, and she has planned a great day of food, games, and prizes for the kids.
We’re serving Hot Dogs (enough for 85 people) with chili, slaw, chips, watermelons, and cupcakes. Games include corn hole, face paints, and a half-dozen others. Rita said she may be able to get prize donated by Triangle Trophy.
June 19th — SAVE THE DATE!!!
