Dear REACTer:
It's meeting time again and it's going to be hard to meet when the next day is a
holiday. Let's all make an effort to be at the meeting.
All of had d ti t_ the if . i
All ,. us tuu a good time at tiic picnic even li It, did rain up GO the Lime to edt.
None of us melted and we had plenty to eat. I enjoy getting together at picnics
because everyone let's their hair down, talks and enjoys the day.
We had a very nice and unexpected surprise June 6th when we were invited to attend
the volunteer Fire Dept. Association Meeting. They presented us with donations to
help purchase supplies that we use when we help at their fires. We really appreciate
it. Thanks to all of you.

We all get two gifts we should use as much as possible- imagination & humor. Imagination
compensates us for what we are not. A sense of humor consoles us for what we are.
