The first club group to meet since the virus began is the White Cloud Club. They met Tuesday, June 2, 2020 at the Marr Park, pond shelter house at 10 a.m. The group hadn't gotten together since their March date night.

President Pauline Richardson had asked to group to bring their own drinks and lawn chairs, so they could just get together for visiting and practice social distancing. They all enjoyed seeing each other since the April and May meetings were canceled.

The meeting opened with Pauline reading about the origin of Flag Day on June 14, 1777 and shared some rules on flag handling.

Roll call was answered by each telling 'what unusual gadget they had.”

Minutes from the February meeting and March Date Night were read. The treasurer's report was given and one bill paid.

There was no new business and next month's meeting is to be determined.

Attending were Joyce Huff, Betty Lintz, Pat Miller, Margaret Patterson, Pauline Richardson and Shannon Sells and daughter, Katrina.
