Old Business
A moment of silence was taken for Paul Souther. A memorial was supposed to be had at a later date but there was some confusion and it has been brought to my attention that it will still be held on May 18th. His store must be moved by the end of this month. No word on whether or not it will remain closed or if it will be opened somewhere else.
Boomer got his package and he wishes to thank everyone who sent him his goodies. Lori will be turning 49 on Friday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY LORI!!!!!

As some of you know Liz Espinoza has been diagnosed with Breast Cancer. She has already had the surgery to remove the lymph nodes and lumps. It is a stage 1 tumor and it is smaller than originally thought. She needs some help with light chores and housework. Her number is 343-1174 (home) or 350-3345 (cell). Please contact her if you can help her out, I'm sure she would appreciate any help at all. Her mom was also diagnosed with terminal cancer. She was supposed to have at least two months to live and unfortunately she passed away on the same day as the meeting. Our hearts and prayers go out to Liz and her family.
New Business
Bobbie Jo Shuldt and Greg Duerre are to be married on June 21, 2008. The wedding will take place at the Land Grant Building off of Route 66. The reception is to follow at the Ponderosa Bar and Restaurant. Please R.S.V.P. by June 10th. You may call 286-1107 or 328-4995.
We have also recently found out that Miss Kitty, our new Events Coordinator, has come down with an infection that is in a majority of her body. She goes every Friday to get 6 hours worth of antibiotics in one day. She will need help with the School Supply Run when it gets here. She is supposed to have low stress and taking it extremely easy. Get well soon Miss Kitty we need you!!!
Boomer also wanted to let everyone know that there was only one MIA in Iraq and his remains have been found, ID'ed, and sent home.
No other new business at this time.
