Results of July Board Meeting
Well, your Board of Directors had another very productive meeting. We approved two new members, Natalie Grisham and Tara Manly.  Natalie will be initiated at our Business meeting, July 11th, and Tara, due to her work schedule, will be initiated during our Program meeting on July 25th.  
 
We also approved 3 new projects:  Sweet Dreams of Success for Families in Crisis, Temple Shelter, $300 to stock laundry room and bedrooms with necessary items and 150 volunteer hours; Bingo at Belton Senior Activity Center, $200 to purchase prizes with 40 volunteer hours to shop for prizes and call Bingo; and Supplies for Schools ~ Raye Allen Elementary in Temple and Southwest Elementary in Belton are two schools currently not being supported by outside sources, $1,000 will purchase supplies as needed in cooperation with Community in Schools organization with an estimated 30 volunteer hours.
 
Again, if you have an idea for a new project or one we've done in the past, get with Julie Ruiz, chair of our Service Committee and her peeps will guide you through the process.
The Campers Are Back
The precious Camp Dreamcatcher campers, the lively counselors and the sleep deprived sponsors made it back to Temple in one happy piece!  We are so grateful for the safety, smiles, and memories made at this year's camp.  Those involved will take a few weeks to rest up then the planning and work will begin for yet another fun week in the summer of 2018!  One more awesome camp in the book;-)
 
 
 
Yearbook Editor Needed
I am looking for someone that will step up and help with the creation of our annual yearbook.  If you are interested, please let me or Kelly Nix know and we'll fill you in on the requirements.  Thank you
Prayers for Chris Tolbert and Family
Our heartfelt condolences to Chris and Donnie Tolbert in the loss of her mother, Mary Collier.  Ms Collier died last Thursday after a long illness.  It can sometimes be looked at as a blessing when you are watching someone you love deal with an illness, but it's never easy to lose a mother or father.  The service was touching and she looked beautiful in her pink outfit.  Love you Chris.
