White Cloud Club

Members of the White Cloud Club met at the home of Betty Lintz for a delicious breakfast prepared by the hostess. The breakfast was enjoyed by Carrie Coble, Pat Miller, Margaret Patterson and the hostess.

Vice President Pat Miller opened the meeting with a reading "Planting and Reaping" from the book Tea Time with God. It was a great reminder of the process of tending a garden, the rewards of produce and the application in life with friends and neighbors.

Roll call was answered by telling if each day is started by setting an alarm or awakening on their own. Members admitted that days when an alarm is not needed is a start to a good day.

Betty read the Secretary and Treasurer's report from the May meeting. There was no old business.

New Business included setting the date of July 5, 2022 for the next meeting. The group will meet at the Pizza Ranch at 11:30 a.m. Betty will be the hostess.Possible local places of interest were discussed as locations to visit for the annual club tour. A get well card was signed by everyone to send to a member recently hospitalized.

Pat closed the meeting by thanking Betty for hostessing and for the gift of a decorator coaster for each. Members were reminded to be sure and vote!
