GUESTS None. Did you forget to ask?
FINES John Knipp was back as Top Sgt. with help from Randy Hendrickson. Those fined were Larry Sloan for early storm profits. Jim Seitnater, Bill Long, Vern Powers and Tom Stanton for trying to hold a private meeting while the Sgts. were at work. Rick Mitchell fined for being late and talking, a double whammy. Duke Wiggins fined for putting out too many banners. You just can win, can you Duke? Last but not least, were all those who did not have an invitation to breakfast card with them. Once fined they were given one or two.
Just a reminder, if you can help, they still need workers for the New Beginnings Casino Night Fundraiser to be held this Saturday night at the Town Club. Contact Scott Potucek.

TUIT Stan Macgirvin was gone on an appliance buying trip to Texas. Dont forget to ask if you see him or he sees you.
PROGRAM Tom Stanton would have introduced Jack Manske, a developer from Wichita working with New Beginnings. But Jack called and did not make the trip due to the weather. Tom made the announcement for him that New Beginnings will have another fund raiser on May 24th bringing the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band to town for a concert. Also appearing will be an opening act from Belle Plaine, Robin Macy and The Cherokee Maidens & Sycamore Swing. Robin was one of the four original founding Dixie Chicks. This editor met her when the group was performing at the Winfield Bluegrass festival as a new, all girl, county and bluegrass band. She left the band when they moved from country and bluegrass to more pop/country and returned to Wichita to form another western band, Big Twang which dissolved in 2003. Her new band was formed late last year. The concert will be held Memorial weekend Sunday, May 24th at 7:00 PM at the fairgrounds grandstand. Reserved section seating will be $20 each with general admission seats for $10. For Tickets 24/7 call 877-286-7853 or go to the newbeginnings-inc.org website.
50/50 DRAWING Tim Davies won $18.00 and since he could not find a worthier cause to give it to, he took the money and ran.
Since the newsletter drawing chips have been found I will need to have a new question: Who, when and where was AMBUCS founded?
