Sad News

Peggy Bishop told us that her daughter Angela and husband lost their baby.  Very sad news for the family that had experienced such joy for the last five months.  Our condolences go out to the family.

Getting to Know You

In interest of time, Emily presented the getting to know you on Pam Goebel and Maureen Martin.

Update on Shawnee Park Courtyard – Cleanup was held on May 8^th.  Cathy K, reported a full crew consisting of Pam G, Anna M. B., Kathy S, Kim S, Maureen M, and Sue Scharf.  With help from Cool Cats Martel and previous student Marsalais, we left the courtyard in tip top shape.  It was great working with Martel and Marsalais – they were a big help.

Consent Agenda

Emily asked for a motion on the consent agenda.  Motion was given by Robin Keith and seconded by Jan Gauthier.

Red Apple – Robin did not delete “family” photos from her Conference photos.  Turn around is fair play, so Robin fined all those not attending Conference.

Raffle – Kim S. donated the Keys to Graceland which were won by Melissa Hoezee.

May Birthdays – Amy (Cool Cat) May 21, Maureen (May 7^th) Sarah (June 9^th)

Picnic

Two Cool Cats were still available as buddies – Kim S. and Kathy S.  will be buddies with Amy Docter and Maureen M. and Cathy F. will be buddies with Quoc Veit.

The Cool Cats picnic will be held on June 17^th, 5:30 at Riverside Park.  Use the Boat Launch #2 entrance.  I don’t believe that we have reserved a spot, so it might be a good idea to bring an extra lawn chair if you can.

So far, Pam Howland, Elaine Carr and Kim Savoie have visited the Cool Cats classroom, as well as Emily of course!  All were impressed.

District Conference Overview:

Cathy Kaiser was the recipient of the Jane Peth award at District level.  This award is new this year and is given to a person who is steadfast, caring for fellow Quotarians and committed to Quota’s success.  Congratulations Cathy!

Kim Savoie talked about our invitation to next years District Conference.  She showed the video with our own movie star (Emily).  Everyone seemed enthusiastic and loved the invitation.  She reminded us how much we all enjoy seeing our District friends and how great it is to attend Conference.  The Conference video was edited by Pam Howland’s son David.

Gross District sales was $421.00, which included the Cool Cats Quilt raffle, pad folios, visors, etc. (Koeze costs still have to be subtracted from that number.)

Guests

Peggy introduced our guest and past member – Bonnie Nawara

Bonnie had been a very active member of Quota and it was wonderful seeing her again.
