NEWSLETTER

September will be an exciting month.  We have our Octoberfest on September 25th so break out those clogs, and practice your beer drinking skills.  The beer garden will be open and there will be lots of activities.  Invite your friends and family.  The bus rides are back….October 24 we will hit the road for a down South trip; Salmon Bay, Tacoma, Auburn & Puyallup.  Additional information and to register see our fabulous bartenders.  FOOOOOOTBAAAAL!!!  No place like our club to watch the games from the multiple screens and our open kitchen.  Check the calendar which can also be accessed at the redmondeagles.blogspot.com.   

To everyone who has mailed or brought in your donation for the building fund…  THANK YOU.  We raised close to a $1,000! We know there’s more out there but not mailed yet.      

ABOVE & BEYOND

This month we begin our Above & Beyond Awards program.  Log 50 volunteer hours and receive an Above & Beyond T-shirt, or donate $100 to our building fund and you can receive the T-shirt and the tax deduction.  We will have our first annual Above & Beyond banquet June 2016.

Thank you to everyone who showed up to celebrate Fred’s birthday and wound up folding the newsletter.  This is a very time consuming project and the more hands the better.  If you missed the fold-a-thon join us on September 24 at 4:00.   

We extend a heartfelt standing ovation to the Eagle’s Travel Club who stepped up and donated $1,800 to the club so we can do things like pay taxes, keep the lights on, and the building air conditioned, buy food and alcohol etc., etc. 

Yay! Yay! Popcorn is back thanks to Debra and her generous donation.  (Sorry Debra that it took so long to thank you)

Thank you to Tara Vinson and Anthony Kibby for taking on bringing us a family night if you would like more information or would like to support this effort contact Tara at 206-403-7220. 

FUNDRAISER UPDATE

Did you miss it or forget?  The “Make a difference you can see” campaign is in full swing and extra flyers are located at the club.  Don’t worry it is not too late to donate funds to our club and get that much welcomed tax deduction.  Keep it coming folks.

TRAVEL CLUB OUTING
Sept. outing will be at the Lucky Eagle Casino/Hotel on Sept. 24-27th. Sharon will be calling everyone to see how many can commit to joining us!  They have RV hook-ups and are next door to the Casino with a shuttle going back and forth.  She will get all the information and we’ll discuss it at the next Travel Club meeting on Sept. 9th. (if you’re unable to come to the meeting and would like to go, we’ll call/email the particulars to everyone).
Happy Travels, travelers!
