November already? I guess it’s the start to the holiday season. We have put Halloween behind us, turned the clocks back and elected new leaders. I finally feel safe looking at my text messages again without having to delete all the election spam. There is not much to report as far as club activities. Bowling season is moving along and the anniversary committee has been putting together plans for the 90th anniversary in 2027. We will be getting details out soon on that front. We will also be finalizing our 2027 calendar of events at the November meeting. Please try to be there tonight at 6:30 at the Perfect Game.
If I don’t see you before then, have a happy Thanksgiving!
Take care,
Bill
Happy October everyone! Bowling season has started (someone needs to notify the elder Tri-V team), but the golf clubs remain out and busy for many of us. This time of year has provided the best of both worlds, mild days and cools evenings. Chances to get outdoors during the day and sleep with the windows open at night. I hope it lasts a while.
Just a small reminder, there will be a club meeting on Tuesday October 13th at Perfect Game. The meeting will begin at 6:30. We will be taking a look at the proposed budget and calendar of events. The council is proposing a few changes to both. Please attend if possible so we can get your input on some important issues.
Thank you and take care,
Bill

The TRI V golf season ended on August 10th. The 1st half winner was Bill Trachsel and Mike Lewandoski won the 2nd half. Jerry Whitefoot and John Mackson were the wild cards. The 2026 champion was Mike L for the 2nd year in a row. Congratulations to all the playoff golfers for a great season.

Tri V Picnic 2026
The Tri V picnic was held on Sunday August 16th at Dave a Kim’s home. The weather looked threatening but the day turned out to be very nice. There were 17 adults and 4 kids. We had lunch around 1:30 with chicken, a bean salad and a number of fruit dishes. The kids spent a good part of the day in the pool and then went into the house and played board games. Due to the low number of kids and the time they spent in the pool we did not have any of the usual games but everyone seemed fine with that. The budget was $175 and we spent $10 one popsicles and gave $25 dollars to Dave and Kim for the use of their home. $140 was returned to the club.
In attendance:
Dave/Kim 2 kids Matthew and Nick
Jay/Liz
Tim/Karlyn
Ca/Jan
Bill/ Julia
Mike T 2 kids Ben and John
