The Treasurer's Report was approved.  The Bluffs informed us that it must increase our per-person charge for weekly luncheons as a measure to help offset the significant food and staffing cost increases.  The new charge will be $8.00 per person and a 15% gratuity will be added to our final bill.  So this adds up to $9.20 per meal.  Consequently, the board approved charging those Kiwanians and their guests who eat a meal $10.  Active members will pay $5 for meals missed and senior members will pay $3 for meals missed.  The charges become effective with the quarter that begins this month.  Members were reminded of our summer picnic at the Aeblis on July 12 and our Chicken BBQ on September 6.  Beattie is planning an Interclub with Marquette Noon Club for Monday, July 21.

June 25 - Discussion on various topics.

July 2 - Michael Scott, Publisher, Mining Gazette

July 9 - Joe Dammel, Engineers Without Borders

July 16 - Chuck Bailey, U.P. financial

July 23 - Dallas Bond, Keweenaw Chamber of Commerce

July 30 - Meet by committees.

As written above, the board approved charging $10 per meal instead of $9.20 for easier bookkeeping as well as to help pay for the free meals given to our speakers and prospective members.  Most members of our club feel meals provided to us by the Bluffs compares well with comparable meals provided at restaurants in our area.  It was also pointed out our Treasurer's Report for the administrative year to day shows we already paid $7,262.96 for meals while receiving $5,477.85 in payment for these meals; so, the difference is $1,785.11.  Our June bill for meals will soon be sent to us and your last quarter billing will soon be sent out to you.

Heavenly Father, without you nothing is holy, nothing has value.  Guide us to everlasting life by helping us to use wisely the blessings you have given to the world.  Keep us watchful in prayer.
