PRESIDENT'S REPORT: 
Hello Everyone!  

Hope you all enjoyed the scrap booking lecture we did last month. Thanks go out to our lecture Michelle I think she did a great job. I saw some new talents in our club using the creativity of their page. I know I enjoyed doing mine and the nice thing is that we all took home a scrap page for our books. Next month will be parade props I have asked Eric and Rie to help lead this and bring in some things that they might have at the shop to sell. If you have a favorite prop that you have made or use in the parades please bring it along to help demonstrate how it is used. Now on a different note there has been some confusion on membership so I have had Tim send out the by-laws to everyone again. We will discuss this at the meeting. The second is Cori Checks I am under the understanding that this is something that is being required by the state. A motion was brought up and voted on that the club will pay this first time for a cori check of all members that were paid and are in good standing with the club as of this past March 2006. This was also motioned that it be placed in the by-laws that all members be cori checked and that any new members being brought into the club cori checked. As well as accepted by the general membership. Since this was motioned I am placing this motion as the first posting. This again will be brought up at the next meeting. Hope to see you all at the next meeting.

Till then take care

Scott "SodaPop" Champeau

We have been informed that Joe Barney has had a heart attack.
He is in the hospital in Glens Falls, New York where he is listed in critical condition. 
I spoke to Joe's wife, Ann, and his sister, Tracy this morning. They are with Joe at the Glens Falls Hospital in New York. All of his children are there as well. The hospital is trying to get him stable enough to go to a larger hospital in Albany where they can do a cauterization procedure. He is still in some pain and is getting medicated for that as he rests. Hopefully, they will know more as the day goes on.
Joe drove himself to the hospital at 4:00 AM in the morning, May 23. So he has been there for about thirty hours or so now.

Family Clown Carnival
This fun carnival night was held to raise money for Kenny's wife and two children. It was headed up by Pam"Lollipop"Bridge" (Hap's alley and Granite State Clowns Alley) and Scott"Sodapop"Champeau (President of the Granite State alley in Nashua) More photos will be up on all the alley sites.

Hats Off To Pam and Scott!
