This is very important:  if you have read this newsletter, text Brenda at 306-861-8642 or email her at king.enterprises@sasktel.net to let her know you have read it.  The counter indicates very few read the newsletter and I want to see if that is true or if it is counting wrong.

Here Ted greets last week's guest speaker Don Kraft.

Rhonda and Diane have a chat.

The 50/50 will soon approach $500!  Buy tickets.  Buy lots of tickets.  

Your chance of drawing the queen of diamonds improves every week.

Only Stafford thought the joke was funny!  Maybe it was one of Dale's.  Oh, wait! 

 Not even Stafford thinks Dale's jokes are funny.

The Ukrainian meal before the Poltava Dancers was a great opportunity

 for our club to pair with another group.

A local dance group entertained during the meal and they

were cuteness personified.

The ticket sellers had front row seats for the little dancers.

Rotarians and their partners also supported the event by eating.

Stan Ganczar and his group were the true organizers.

Everyone had smiles.

Yum!
