August Potluck, Nancy’s Garden Party, and AGM!
August 31, 2022
Hi Folks!
As you know, August is typically a quiet month for the group, since we take a short break from the usual weekly meetings. However, we had some annual events, so why not share some of the activities we had on our “quiet month”?
August 11th, 2022 “A New Potluck”
Great job everyone coming out to the potlock, bringing some food, and just as importantly, your appetite! A good time was had by all, but the generosity was overflowing, and we couldn’t tackle the mountain of meals. See for yourself:

Table 1 had Deserts, and a number of newer faces!



Table 2 with the Treby’s and Guthrie’s
It was a remarkably balanced potluck, given the variety of dishes!
The turnout was fantastic as usual. Here are some extra pictures (sorry if we missed you – next time!)

John, Paul, and Terry



Bob presenting Fish and Games Check to OSRS’ Karen and Bernice
Organizations are going through tough times all over, and we greatly appreciate Bob and the Fish and Games’ support! We need each other.
August 19th, 2022 “The Garden Strikes Back”
Thank you Nancy W for hosting this especially fun Garden Party! The turnout was as warm and comfortable as the weather! The treasure chest game was a pleasant surprise, and everyone enjoyed picking something out from it!
Special Thank you to Wayne Duke(husband of stroke survivor Linda Duke) for donating a very beautiful mounted and framed picture that he took on the San Juan Islands of a red fox. Wayne is a talented Wildlife Photographer, who travels the world to photograph various wildlife.
Below is a picture of Wayne holding the amazing donation (Taken at the AGM):



Thank you, Wayne!
August 25th, 2022 “Return of the Executive”
The AGM went smoothly as usual. Bill W has graciously decided to take a step back from his executive role, to let another member step up! Last I heard, the spot’s available, *wink wink nudge nudge*. All of the other past executive members are continuing on! We thank you.
The weather was amazing… almost as good as the company!
Here are some Pictures from the event:



Rick pondering the mysteries of the Universe, as usual

It was a fun August. Hopefully the rest of the year is as pleasant.
