  I hope everyone is well heading into the holiday season.
  Bowling is well underway and the older Tri V team is in second place while our younger member team has had a difficult start but is now coming on strong.
  Tonight is Halloween I hope the weather is good for the trick or treat aged children and adults.
  There will be no meeting this month but be sure to put your Christmas greeting into next month’s paper.
  Be safe and have a great Thanksgiving.

  Presidents Message At the September meeting Jeff Trachsel… 

  Presidents Message
  At the September meeting Jeff Trachsel informed the club that he has been diagnosed with bone and prostate cancer. He has already begun some treatment and they are looking the best options for a full scale treatment program. I’m sure everyone will hold Jeff, Karen and the family in their prayers.
  The Tri V September meeting was held at the Perfect Game bowling alley on Sept 14th. George presented calendar of events and budget options to the club for discussion. After much discussion it was decided to keep the same outdoor events only option as last year. The spring and summer events from last year will have the same budget. I will be assigning members to each committee so if you have a preference of committee’s let me know. Also dues have again been waived for this year. We will hold officer elections in 2022 so meetings will start back up in February if not sooner. Based on what is happening if things improving enough to change our thinking toward indoor events we may reinstate a few events. Brian, Jack and John Mackson have volunteered to be on an Anniversary committee, They will investigate options for holding either a spring, summer or fall anniversary party.

  I would like to know how many people would like to go feather bowling as a stag event. I will try to get lanes for sometime this month if enough people are interested. Please text or email Jay if your are interested. Also I’m wondering if members with kids would like to arrange a family event at a corn maze if anyone knows of one near them. Thanks Jay Trachsel

  Tri V picnic

  The Tri V picnic was held at Rotary Park in Livonia on July 18th .
  We had 26 adults and 11 kids in attendance. We went back to our normal format with families bringing a dish to share. We again had great weather and a good time catching up with people we haven’t seen recently do to restrictions. We had lunch around 1:30 then the kids ran around for a while until the games were arranged. Our prize money budget was $36 and due to the large age difference and the low number of kids we only had 2 individual games and the rest were team games. As normal the water balloon games where the most popular with plenty of busted balloons to cool the kids and a few adults off. Winning team members each got $2 dollars Team 2 (Joey, Alyssa, Anthony and Abel ) won twice for $4 per member and team 1 (Dominic, Julia, Maddie and Piper) won one game for $2 each. The teams of Julia/Bill and Alyssa/Jack tied for the balloon toss. Each kid got $2 the adults got congratulations. The individual sack race and shoe scramble winners each got $2 and any child how participated but didn’t win got $2 for a total of $36 paid out. There was candy for the kids to take which cost $14 combined with the $100 pavilion rental totaled $150 which was the event budget.
  Attendance:
  Jay/Liz, Brian/Jane, Cal/Jan, Jeff/Karen, Ken/Kate, Ryan/Arika, Brett/Lynne, John/Robin, Jack/Jackie, George/Peg, Judy L, Bill T. Mike T. Eric H.

  The Memorial for John Lardin on June 28th was wonderful time to remember John’s life. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Lardin family. John lived life to the fullest and loved everyone. John will be missed by all of us.
  The Tri V golf season 1st half was won by Mike Trachsel. The second half is under way and the golf scores have been much lower overall. Points are hard to come by. Good luck to everyone in the second half.
  The Tri V picnic is scheduled for July 18th at Rotary Park pavilion #3. We will start about 1:00 with lunch beginning around 1:30. We will go back to our normal format with everyone bringing a dish to share. We will supply water only so bring your own beverages ( I will have an alcohol permit) cups, plates and utensils. The games may be pared back as we have fewer young kids. Volley ball courts are in the area and they were used by the older kids last year. If possible I would ask that people that know they are going to attend and have kids coming drop me an email or text with the number of kids and ages for game planning. Please save the date and plan on attending. The committee is currently Jay and Brian Trachsel.
  Jeff and Karen have again offered their home for the Tri V steak roast. The roast will be on August 7th. The dinner will be around 4:30 to 5:00.
