SPY’s Community Newsletter

(9/24/23)



Thank You Texas Hold ‘Em Volunteers!!!

Last Monday through Thursday the SPY’s were scheduled to work a Texas Hold ‘Em event fundraiser selling chips to the players. We do this four times a year as a means to generate significant funds for the various youth and community programs and projects the SPY’s support. This time around for some reason we ran into a problem with getting folks to volunteer to do the simple tasks involved. However, we did manage to get the event covered due to the extra effort of some dedicated people. We send out a very sincere Thank-You to:

Bruce Kauffman

Craig Mulholland

Rod Clark

DeAnna Clark

Ryan Clark

Wayne Simmons

Mandy Peabody

Pete Weller

Jeff Gibbs (worked two shifts)

Betsy Gibbs (worked two shifts)

Sandy Fisher (worked two shifts)

John Fisher (worked three shifts)

Thank You Trash Pickers!

Project Chairman Derek “Captain Highway” Desgranges would like to send out a BIG Sunfield Area SPY salute to the following fine folks who helped out on our third and final Adopt-A-Highway trash pick-up of the season this past Saturday, as well as some of the folks that took advantage of the option of participating earlier in the week. Thank you:

Lance Eldridge

Liz Eldridge

John & Sandy Fisher

Job well done pickers!

Parting Comments

· Deep Thought of the Week: The hardest thing about “everything happens for a reason” is waiting for the reason to come along.

• Notable Quote: "If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth, only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair."-----C. S. LEWIS

• That’s Puny Department: If you suck at playing the trumpet…that’s probably why.

• Did You Know Section: It wasn’t until 1912, that what was destined to be the world’s all-time favorite cookie---The Oreo---made its appearance. Some two hundred billion of them have been produced and sold to date---enough, if piled one on top of the other, to reach the moon and back three times!
