Greetings Optimists,

Our next general member meeting will be this week, Tuesday July 19 at 12 Noon, in UC 261.

!!! A Call for 2016-17 Club Officers. Seriously, who’s willing to be President for 2016-17, or President-elect for 2017-18, or Vice-President for 2016-17? That’s really all we need for new officers at this time.

I have received word from two club members they would be willing/able to be on the board as an officer or general board member next year, depending upon what time of day the monthly board meetings are held. Also, Jan Olson, Kate Ksobiech and Ken Ksobiech have all indicated they would be willing to continue on the board in their current officer roles. I WILL continue on the board as past-president and will be more than willing to assist with weekly emails, web site updates and Facebook postings.  So…what would YOU like to do next year to contribute? We only need three new people. Perhaps one that you’ve not held in the past? Please begin volunteering to be an officer for 2016-17. Contact me or Kim Adams if you’re willing to be an officer for next year. “Many hands make light work.”!!!

Current events needing helpers:

NFL “FUND CRAZR” RAFFLE TICKETS!! We are now selling the final 50 of 200 total tickets for this year’s NFL Fund Crazr raffle.  Please return any money for sold tickets, and the ticket stubs, to me as soon as possible.  If you can’t sell all the tickets you presently have, I will be able to give them to other club members who have “sold out” their own set(s) of tickets. All sold ticket stubs and unsold tickets must be returned to the SWIS District before August 28. 100 sold tickets will net the club $1,200. 150 sold tickets will net the club $1,800. 200 tickets sold will net the club $2,400. If you haven’t bought one for yourself yet, contact me to do so. There are about 20 club members who could simply buy one ticket each and we would have nearly half of the final bundle of tickets sold.

Warhawk Football Ticket Taking. You all should have received an email from Frank Bartlett with sign up dates/times for taking tickets at this fall’s games (thanks Frank!!).

No weekly email update from me next week, I’ll be on vacation! (But if anyone else wishes to send out an email to keep us up-to-date, feel free to do so!)

Dates for upcoming club meetings and events:

  • Tuesday, July 19, Regular club meeting. Speaker needed. Bring your own lunch.
  • Tuesday, July 26, Regular club evening meeting, 5:00 PM, Jessica’s Restaurant. Speaker needed.

Greetings Optimists,

No general member meeting this week. However, the Exec Board WILL be meeting at 12 Noon in the University Center, room 268. Does anyone have an agenda item for tomorrow’s Exec Board meeting? If so, please contact me ASAP.

Our next general member meeting will be next week, Tuesday July 19 at 12 Noon.

!!! A Call for 2016-17 Club Officers. Seriously, who’s willing to be President for 2016-17, or President-elect for 2017-18, or Vice-President for 2016-17? That’s really all we need for new officers at this time.

Contact me or Kim Adams if you’re willing to be an officer for next year. “Many hands make light work.”!!!

***Gyro Stand.*** This will be one of our topics at the Exec Board tomorrow. Many ideas have been shared with me such as: Precook the gyro meat to reduce staffing by one for each shift; share the stand with another service club who could provide additional labor and then share the expenses and profits with that group; change the layout of the stand to bring the beverage coolers inside so we can reduce staffing by one or two people; rent the gyro cookers to another service club; sell the gyro cookers to another service club; sell the entire trailer and gyro related equipment to another club; try to use the gyro stand at a few of the Tuesday night “City Market” events instead of the July 4th Festival; try to use the gyro stand at a few of the Tuesday night “City Market” events before and after the July 4th Festival.

What other ideas do you have?

***Jefferson County Fair Ticket selling.*** Thanks to those who worked at the ticket booths for the Jefferson County Fair. We had most of the slots covered last Wednesday, July 6, at the Fair. We had a good weather day and everything went smoothly. Thanks especially to those who worked two shifts. It is greatly appreciated.

Upcoming events needing helpers:

NFL “FUND CRAZR” RAFFLE TICKETS!! We have sold (or are still selling) all 150 of the first 150 tickets we received. We’ve received money for almost 50 of the tickets so far. Please return any money for sold tickets, and the ticket stubs, to me as soon as possible.  If you can’t sell all the tickets you presently have, I will be able to give them to other club members who have “sold out” their own set(s) of tickets. I’ve also asked Fred Dorn for an additional 50 tickets and hope the additional tickets will be here this week. All sold ticket stubs and unsold tickets must be returned to the SWIS District before August 28. 100 sold tickets will net the club $1,200. 150 sold tickets will net the club $1,800. 200 tickets sold will net the club $2,400. If you haven’t bought one for yourself yet, contact me to do so. There are about 20 club members who could simply buy one ticket each and we would have nearly half of the next bundle of tickets sold.

Warhawk Football Ticket Taking. I’m hoping we’ll once again be asked to provide workers at the gate at Perkins Stadium on Warhawk football game days. The dates for 2016 home games are: September 3 (12:00pm kickoff), September 10 (1:00pm kickoff), September 24 (1:00pm kickoff), October 8 (1:00pm kickoff, Family Fest), October 22 (1:00pm kickoff, Homecoming), and November 5 (2:00pm kickoff, Shriners/Seniors Day).

Greetings Optimists,

There is no general member meeting this week.

!!! A Call for 2016-17 Club Officers. Seriously, who’s willing to be an officer for 2016-17? It’s time to create the slate of officers for 2016-17. I have received word from two club members they would be willing/able to be on the board as an officer or general board member next year, depending upon what time of day the monthly board meetings are held. I also want to let everyone know that I WILL continue on the board as past-president and will be more than willing to assist with weekly emails, web site updates and Facebook postings.  So…what would YOU like to do next year to contribute? Perhaps one that you’ve not held in the past? Please begin volunteering to be an officer for 2016-17. Contact me or Kim Adams if you’re willing to be an officer for next year. “Many hands make light work.”!!!

 

***Jefferson County Fair Ticket selling.*** Sign for ticket selling is going very well. There are still 5 slots that could be filled. Please review the signup sheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SDeuVZwl_Z75zxa8SxXP8PkcJTJoZetuZbEczlfXcnQ/edit?usp=sharing.  The Club receives payment from the Jefferson County Fair for each hour that we have a club member working at the various gates. One day of work with all of the shifts filled can really help the club budget. If you have trouble opening this spreadsheet, let me know what shifts you can work and I’ll add your name.

 

NFL “FUND CRAZR” RAFFLE TICKETS!! Sales appear to be going well. We have distributed all 100 of the first 100 tickets we received. I’ve also received an additional 50 tickets, but only 33 of those tickets are still available. We’ve received money for 41 of the tickets so far. Who still needs tickets? How about buying one for yourself?

 

For those of you who have picked up tickets for sale, please return any money for sold tickets, and the ticket stubs, to me as soon as possible.  If you can’t sell all the tickets you presently have, I may be able to give them to other club members who have “sold out” their own set(s) of tickets. All sold ticket stubs and unsold tickets must be returned to the SWIS District before August 28. 100 sold tickets will net the club $1,200. 150 sold tickets will net the club $1,800. Selling all 150 tickets will help make us some of the lost revenue from the Gyro Stand.

 

 

Our Exec Board message to the public about canceling the Gyro Stand for this past weekend has generated interest from at least one member from the community about possibly joining the club. I also spoke with two of my neighbors this past weekend about the club and they both expressed interest in possibly joining. I’ll continue to follow up with all three, plus a UW-W staff member.

 

Dates for upcoming club meetings and events:

  • Tuesday, July 5, NO MEETING!
  • Wednesday, July 6, Jefferson County Fair ticket selling/taking.
  • Tuesday, July 12, Executive Board meeting, 12 Noon.
  • Tuesday, July 19, Regular club meeting. Speaker needed. Bring your own lunch.
  • Tuesday, July 26, Regular club evening meeting, 5:00 PM, Jessica’s Restaurant. Speaker needed.
  • Tuesday, August 2, Regular club meeting. Speaker needed. Bring your own lunch.
  • Tuesday, August 9, Executive Board meeting, 12 Noon.
  • Tuesday, August 16, Regular club meeting. Speaker needed. Bring your own lunch.
  • Tuesday, August 23, Regular club evening meeting, 5:00 PM, Jessica’s Restaurant. Speaker needed.
  • Tuesday, August 30, 5th Tuesday of the month. Should we meet? Fellowship meeting?

 

That’s all for tonight.

Greetings Optimists,

Our general member meeting this week will be Tuesday night, June 28, at 5:00pm at Jessica’s Restaurant!! See you there.

!!! A Call for 2016-17 Club Officers. Seriously, who’s willing to be an officer for 2016-17? It’s time to create the slate of officers for 2016-17.

Contact me or Kim Adams if you’re willing to be an officer for next year. “Many hands make light work.”!!!

***Gyro Stand.*** While we have canceled the stand for 2016, I don’t want to say it’s totally dead and gone. A couple of you have already shared ideas regarding how we might be able to streamline operations in the future to try and get staffing down to 4 per shift or even 3 people per shift during slower times. Any and all ideas are worth discussing. We’ll do more brainstorming tomorrow night at the evening meeting.

I want to share with you part of the message the exec board received from Duane Dickens last Friday after I announced the cancelation of this year’s Gyro Stand. “I was thinking the other day that this year would have been the 35th year of the Gyro Stand at the 4th of July event.  I want to thank all the folks that have been involved and have worked the Gyro Stand over all those years.  Maybe this year I can actually watch the complete parade.” Duane & Barb, I hope you can enjoy the entire parade also this year.
