Once again it was time for Young Women of the Month. Bill Byers introduced them. It is always good to see what these young people can accomplish. In fact, I was very much impressed that for once they had a young woman who had been struggling academically but has overcame obstacles to be recognized by her school.

There were two young people from Grand Junction High School. First there was the scholar from last month. Her name is Jill Blecha. She was with her sponsor and her parents. Then the girl for this month from Grand Junction was Maggie Fromm. She too, had her mother and her sponsor with her. From Fruita the Young Woman of the Month was Lindsay Redd. Her parents were with her but her sponsor was unable to attend so Bill Byers read and told of her accomplishments. Palisade was represented by Sofia Leon. She too had her sponsor and her parents along with her. Finally Central High’s Jackelyn Henning was with her sponsor and her parents. Congratulation to all of you.

I believe the greeters today were Jim Moore and Allison Shain. The song of the day was Easter Parade. Michelle Smith once again brought the prayer. President Lois lead the meeting. Lynne Sorlye brought the thought for the day. It was something about prejudice. Jeff Cyriaks won the pot and walked away with $5.00.

Birthdays this week are being celebrated by Ron Lappi, Jeff Gumone and Earl Payne. If you see any of these people be sure to wish them a happy Birthday. They must be celebrating as none were at club.

Guests today included Debra Page and Natrona Johnston and Dawn Walker. They were all guests of Heidi Pankow. Randy Kirschbaum brought Ken Richards with him. Jacquie Chappell-Reid had as her guest Dr Michael Hall. Mike Moran had Cory Hulse and Cory’s wife Donna as his guests.

Larry Beckner introduced Crystal Riddle and Carmen Sherwood. They were from Fruita High and brought a slide show about a Mosaic the young people from Fruita have prepared to take to New York in memory of 9-11. The tiles in the Mosaic are all hand made and depict the city of New York as well as the flag and sayings from various presidents. They are looking for money to help them take this mosaic to New York. If you would like to see it go to the Fruita Civic Center in the next week or else later to The Art Center on North 7^th.

We are still looking for someone to help out with the Knowledge Bowl. If you would like to participate see president Lois soon.

It was good to see Velma Bilger back today.

Katie Steele brought a report from the Oversight Committee. She said they had 2 new reservations for camp time and are expecting another. There was a camp committee meeting last night. There was no report on that.

Mike Moran said the Membership committee is working to fill a table each week with prospective new members. A new member can be inducted for half price ($25.00) until May 15. Also if you bring a prospective new member between now and then you will not be charged. Think about bringing fellow workers of church members.

Rich Emerson announced there are still no Kiwanis members signed up to participate in the Grand Valley Kiwanis Club’s Golf Tournament. It is to be at Battlement Mesa Golf Course May 18. See Rich if you would like to attend that.

Dwayne Jackson serenaded us with a chorus of Yankee Doodle Dandy. He is selling tickets for the Barbershop Show. That is scheduled for April 20. Tickets are $6.00 and $8.00 depending on your age and the amount of tickets purchased.

Earl Jensen brought back a gift for President Lois from his trip to Death Valley. It was a 5 ounce piece of fool’s Gold.
