Hello Everyone. Well summer is definitely her and the bottom bar is open every weekday from 4-9. The Summer Draw this year is going to be on August 26th. So if you want that special ticket number, give Debra Su Enders a call at 760-960-5509. Thank You. I want to thank all my officers who particated in the Mother s Day do-over. It turned out very well and the food was very delicious. Thank you to my wife Risa and my mom Vickey and Debra Su fro making scrambled eggs. Well Flag Day was coming up and I wasn t sure on how to do it. So I went to Blythe s Flag Day to get an idea and wow, they did a great job. They had the most amazing fish fry I ve had in a very long time! So anyway, I put my own little spin on our flag day and I used the Boy Scouts to carry in the flags the ceremony. They did a very nice job! So I want to thank Andrew Otis Koon and Paul Martin, the pack leaders, James Rouhotas, Nicholas Rouhotas, pack #4020, Johnny Rouhotas, Stephen Martin and Troop #4022 for carrying the flags. Thanks also to my officers who participated. Thanks. Fraternally yours, Richie Windsor Just remember if it wasn t for Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity, Elks would not be Elks.

Hole Sponsorship for the tournament is $250.00, and for your sponsorship you will receive lunch and dinner for two and: A sign on the golf course recognizing you as a special sponsor of the tournament. Recognition in a Thank You advertisement following the tournament in the Imperial Valley Press. Hole Sponsors that donate $550.00 will also receive an entry for one team (4 persons) in the tournament (while slots are available). By agreeing to be a Hole Sponsor at this time, you make our planning for the tournament much easier. Thank you for your support and we look forward to having you on board for this special tournament, which supports the youth of our valley.
