The Worthy Prez sez….
As summer winds down, I would like to thank all the volunteers who helped make
the Pig Roast a success. The Kids Games were a great addition. By the time this
is published the 25th. Anniversary celebration will be over, I am sure we did it
up right. It has been a busy time at the Aerie this summer after a slow start.
As we go into the fall season we will have a full schedule of activities
planned, be sure to check the web page for updates.
There are always issues around the Club that need to be discussed and mulled
over, but remember the real discussion and decisions take place at our
respective Aerie and Auxiliary meetings, please make plans to attend.
Fraternally,
Worthy President

Pirates Treasure Hunt
Thank You to all who participated. We had 12 pontoons and 88 people show up to
“Hunt for the Treasure”. The weather held out to make for a fun day. We had some
really great costumes and decorated boats. It takes a lot of effort and it was
nice to see people having fun. I would like to send out a special Thank You to
Secords very own “Pirate Ship” along with her Captain and Crew for participating
and letting the kids get on board for pictures, Ryan Greenman and his gang, Tami
and Al Drake, who made all the treasure chests, Tina Conquest, Bonnie and Beaz,
Ed Ferguson, John and Rita, Anna Robinson, Lakeshore Marina as well as all the
sponsors for their generous donations.

Kids Fun Day
Kids fun day was held on August 7. This was a free event to all children. The
kids had a great time with all of the events. They enjoyed face painting, a
clown with balloon animals and several carnival like games. Everyone left with a
bag of prizes and goodies. This event was made possible with donations from the
Aerie and Auxiliary and from our members who donated candy and prizes. A special
thank you to everyone who volunteered, you helped make this event a SUCCESS!!

The Madam Prez sez…
Hello Fellow Eagles,
Happy Labor Day! August went by soooo quickly. We had a very busy month,
and it is so good to see everyone coming north to use their cottages, and enjoy
our Eagle facilities! Pig Roast/ Family Fun Day was enjoyed by all who
attended. Thanks to all our volunteers - seasoned and newbie alike. WE
APPRECIATE YOU! Congratulations to Carol and Nut-C for being the Toilet Bowl
king and queen. Good going?! At this writing, we haven't celebrated our 25th
Anniversary yet, but I am looking forward to it. Will update on that next
month. Labor Day weekend brings us Vegas night on Saturday the 4th
(volunteer, volunteer, volunteer) , Country breakfast on Sunday the 5th, and our
famous steak dinner also on Sunday the 5th. Remember, just because the summer
is "officially" over, Eagle fun is never done! We always have events going on,
and your participation helps keep the lights on. Volunteers, donations, and
participation, are never turned away. Also, keep signing up those new members.
It would be nice to reach our new member quota this year! If anyone has any
ideas to share let us know - we are always looking for new things to do. You
can never have too much fun! Ladies, don't forget our Auxiliary meetings on
the 2nd Tuesday, and 4th Saturday of the month! They don't hurt that bad and
it's a good reason to share a night out with the girls! Until next month, take
care of each other, be kind to one another, and remember Eagles are People
Helping People! Our Aerie is a GREAT Aerie!
God Bless and Secord Smiles,
Barbie Jozefowicz
