WORTHY PRESIDENT NEWS
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I hope all of you are ready to get into spring activities. We are having an outdoor Pig Roast
donated by Dave Fritz and Richard Bishop. We are providing the pork and we will have an
outdoor baseball tail gate party as we will have the big screen and watch the Tigers game
and have cold beer along with good friends. Bring some munchies to share on Saturday,
May 16th starting at 1:00 pm and we will have this for our membership. We also would like
to let our membership know we now have "pull tab dispenser machines" which you can
play! Stop down and check them out as the proceeds we bring in go to the National Guard Association of Michigan, the GH Eagles 925 and State of Michigan Lotto. We are happy to help our service men and women. We are
continuing to provide entertainment each weekend! We hope to see our snowbirds back and able to socialize
with us this spring, Welcome back! We are in the process of planning many more events so keep an eye on the
Social Room monitor and calendar. We are heading into the end of this year’s membership drive, so lets kick it
up and get some new members signed up. I ask all members to try to
sign up at least one new member as this helps maintain a strong
organization and vibrant social room with many activities. Members
thank you all for coming down and socializing with fellow members
as this helps keeping us growing, strong and successful!!!
Thank You
Dave Fritz Jr.
Worthy President
