SERVICE ABOVE SELF

President Sue welcomed all to the June 23, 2026 club meeting held at the tSpringfield Area Parent Child Training Center.  For the thought of the day, she offered this quote attributed to Audrey Hepburn: "Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others." 

BOWL OF LIFE: (members put three things about themselves on paper and place into a bowl and then we try to identify the member). 

"Became a real estate agent and broker and managed North Real Estate"  Deb Cox
