Beautification
O n March 31 we had our annual beautification picnic. With good food prepared by our
famous chefs Steve Eichner, Tom Isham, Ed Freund and I helped a little, we had some nice
hours in the Bavarian Garden. The bar committee provided the drinks and the GALS, especially
invited, prepared coffee and cake. Many thanks. This is always a welcome event, to say a big
thanks to all members of the beautification team. Not just working together but enjoying some
nice hours together, talking, eating , drinking, having fun.
I know, there are quit a lot of people at the club, who don’t recognize all the work we do and
therefor don’t appreciate it. But a lot do and that’s what keeps us going and doing. Thanks
again.
A m 31. März hatten wir unser jährliches Beautification Picnic. Bei gutem Essen, gekocht von
unseren “Chefs” Steve Eichner, Tom Isham, Ed Freund und ein bisschen von mir, konnten
wir ein paar gemütliche Stunden im Bayrischen Garten bei strahlendem Sonnenschein verbrin-
gen. Das Barkommittee versorgte uns wie üblich mit Getränken und die GALS, extra eingeladen
deswegen, verwöhnten uns mit Kaffee und Kuchen. Vielen Dank dafür. Das Picnic ist immer eine
willkommene Gelegenheit, den Mitgliedern des Beautification Teams danke zu sagen. Nicht nur
zusammen arbeiten, nein auch Spaß bei gutem Essen, Getränken und netten
Gesprächen zu haben muss sein.
Auch wenn ich glaube, dass es doch genügend Mitglieder im Club gibt, die unsere viele Arbeit
nicht erkennen und daher auch nicht so richtig wertschätzen können. Aber viele
sehen und verstehen was wir tun und das gibt uns Ansporn, weiterzumachen.

Bar Committee News
Greetings From the Bar Committee,
I know it’s several months out from Oktoberfest but we are looking for volunteers. This request
is mainly for club members who are looking for specific days, shifts and/or stations and who
may not have a computer to sign up online. My hope is that by starting early we are able to be
fully staffed earlier and that our club volunteers are able to get the shifts they want. If you are
in town during the summer and you see Myself, Harry Reifschneider or Steve Bauer and you
want to volunteer, please let one of us know. If you want to contact me or Harry by phone my
number is 239-565-6964, Harry’s number is 239-785-6662. If we don't answer please leave a
message and we will get you on the schedule.
The schedule is also available online:

I want to wish everyone a safe and healthy Summer!
We have reached the end of another season for our GALS group. As always, we will be here at
the club on Wednesday mornings to craft and enjoy each other's company during the summer
months. The difference is we do not have official meetings and reports again until September.
For all the members who have left us for the summer, stay safe. We expect to see you back here
very soon.
I want to thank everyone that helped when needed. I do appreciate it very much.
