Whew! Did we think it had been hot in June? Had we dusted off that crystal ball in the closet we would have known the hot weather had barely begun. Makes us wonder how August will turn out.
As we come toward the end of our summer shut-down we have events and situations of note. Of course our full schedule appears below, with comments. Please check the first two, as they are of some significance.
The first meeting of the fall is always important. Usually this falls after Labor Day, but not this year. Being on the 1st day of September it is sure to sneak up on a few of us. Mark your calendars accordingly.
The second listing is for the District Annual Meeting. As noted below, the District Inspection Schedule is finalized at this meeting, along with more routine issues. The date listed on the District web site is Saturday, September 11, at 9am, with the meeting being held at Marion #70. For those outside Marion County, this might not seem like an issue. Those more local will recognize that as the final day of the Marion Popcorn Festival (September 9-11, 2010). All of downtown (beside the Lodge building) will be closed to vehicle traffic, and most parking spaces will be occupied by street vendors. If this time and place remain correct, we suggest allowing additional time for traffic detours and locating parking. We strongly suggest checking the District web site frequently for updates to either date or location.
Here are the birthdays on our list for August:
8-15......Richard Hoover
8-18......Larry Knapp
8-20......William Bennett
8-22......Don Kennedy
8-26......David Allman
8-27......Jeff Adkins
