We had lunch today at 
Big Jake's Cafe

We had 22 present. The service and food was good.

Next luncheon will be at the Blue Duck, in 
downtown Livingston on Friday. September 12

In October, on Friday and Saturday, 10th and 
11th from 9-4 we will have a vendor day
at the Activity Center with food for sale by Lemon 
Tree Bakery and one or more food trucks. On 
Friday, 10 October at 2 p.m. we will have a Bake 
Auction with proceeds going to the Livingston 
Volunteer Fire Department (LVFD). Proceeds
from booth rental will go to Escapees CARE.  
We will not have a Chapter 10 luncheon in

 October (second Friday).

For a rally in March or April we are considering

who made money in lumber and gave a 
description of these Stark sites.

Pool opening - Rainbow's End

Good news. The cover is off the pool at the Activity Center at Rainbow's End. At our Chapter 10 meeting on Friday (5/9/2025) we discussed the possibility of Chapter 10 and/or CARE helping to get the pool open and to maintain it. Escapees will be doing this without our assistance. I have not heard a projected date for the pool opening yet but they are working on it. Yeah!
