Trombones in the Big Parade...
Brian
Winslow says the club could use someone to tow the trailer
with the ATVs in the 4th of July Parade this Friday. Formation
is at Garfield Street in Laconia at 12:30 and the parade
will roll down Main Street at 1pm. Arlene Fortier and Larry
Murphy will be selling tickets at the 4th of July Celebration
at Opechee Park that night. If you can help out with the
parade, please call Brian at 524-8444 or e-mail him by "clicking"

Hey
Kiwanis...THANKS!
We
received a "thank you" note from Mary Cass, a recipient of a Kiwanis Scholarship
through Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation. She said thanks for chipping in
as she attends Georgetown University. Perhaps she will learn what a Hoya is.
Well done, Mary. Congratulations and you're welcome!

Howard Bacon and Catherine Conatgiani split $22.

Happy
Dollars:
Roger Webster gave 2 Happy Dollars: 1 for attending his 62nd class reunion
and 1 for winning a door prize while he was there. Roger Landry gave 2 Happy
Dollars: 1 for Ron Penn getting married this coming weekend and 1 because Roger
Webster stopped talking. Kathy Calvin gave 1 for her recent trip in a boat
in Niagara Falls. She got soaked! Ed Chertok gave $5 because Peter Karagianis
had a birthday and Ed remembers Peter's store on Main Street years ago and
because Dick Metz ran such a good Red Sox show at The Belknap Mill this past
weekend. Larry Murphy gave 1 because he can't remember Peter's store on Main
Street. Dianne Zawacki gave 3 Happy Dollars. 1 for attending Kiwanis, 1 for
being named outstanding alumni at her high school and 1 for getting 2 scholarships
toward her Master's Degree from Altrusa. Howard Bacon and Catherine Conatagiani
each gave 1 for winning the 50/50. So we have 2 plus 2 plus 1 plus 5 plus 1
plus 3 plus 2 equals $16 collected tonight! Well done!

Fines:
Kathy Calvin was late. Steve Loughlin was, too. $0.50 was collected.
Guest
Speaker:
Our
guest speaker was
Jim L., who is entering
his junior year at
Laconia High School.
He was recently named
the Youth of the
Year at the Boys
and Girls Club of the
Lakes Region. He received the honor in March,
after only 2 years in the club. In April, he had to give a speech along
with the other Youth of the Year Finalists in NH and in May was able to
attend a Red Sox game 5 rows behind the dugout. The Sox won that day! He
also received a trip to Concord and met with the governor, the state senate,
and the house of representatives. The 99 Restaurant also gave him $99 to
spend at the $99 and a $200 American Express gift card. Well done, Jim!
Congratulations.
...and
at the Boys
and Girls
Club:
After Jim L. spoke, Dianne Zawacki spoke about the Boys and Girls
Club. She said they just started summer camp and had 80 kids in attendance
today. Last year, they averaged 40 per day. The camp started today and
runs through the summer. She said they are also looking to expand on the
existing programs at the Boys and Girls Club. They have also started
a support group for pregnant teens and new teenage moms that have already
given birth. They had 4 in attendance last week. The Boys
and Girls Club is also starting to become involved with the Sununu Youth Detention Center
in Manchester, modeling this aspect of their program after a Hartford,
CT facility. Things are busy at the Boys and Girls
Club!
