Greetings

I am sorry that the Newsletters have been few and far between. Things have been really slow here at Whitebird. There have a few weddings, but other than that there has been little action. Bruce has been trying to get a little watering and has kept the grass trimmed up as needed. Due to a lack of moisture, it has been quite easy for him this year.

Good news we will be having the Pig roast this year. It will be on the Saturday following Labor Day weekend which is the 11^th of September this year. The pig will be pulled around 4:30 and served as close to 5 as is possible. We are still working on raffle prizes and auction donations. Auction will be held after dinner.

The annual meeting will be scheduled for the 3^rd of October. We usually try to have it the first Sunday of October. It is a time to get together and enjoy a great Pot Luck lunch and let the board know what you would like to see happen at the old school house. We usually have the potluck at 2pm and a short meeting to follow. This is your chance to choose who will be on the board of directors. Please put this date on your calendar if you plan to attend.

We had two scholarship winners this year. Emily Routen, and Jessica Calovis.

I will be sending out another newsletter as soon as we know that we will be able to hold our annual pig roast.
