Hey club members: Nice job volunteering this month!! The whole gang almost came out to rake leaves on National Make A Difference Day Saturday October 24. After a bagel breakfast provided by the Bloomington Daymakers Rotary club, we divided up and went to several homes to assist elderly Bloomington residents with yard work. Several hours later, the Northern Lights Hockey team went on to beat the Minnesota Wildcats 8-1. What a great day!! And the weather cooperated by giving us a great sunny and non-precipitating morning in the middle of several days of glum. Thanks also to those who let us use their rakes since our members aren't home owners and don't have access to rakes.
COMMUNITY HALLOWEEN PARTY:
Many club members served at Woodlake Nature Center located just south of 66th Street and east of 35W on Shoreview Drive in Richfield, MN. Our group helped carve the 70 pumpkins needed for the kids Halloween party last Saturday. FLASH, the Northern Lights mascot and Caleb our honorary member were both on hand for the event to hand out hockey tickets at the hockey "shoot and score" game. Thanks for volunteering!!
Also a huge round of applause from the women's BSF group that meets on Wednesday mornings. They really can't keep talking about how grateful they are that our group sets up their 300 chairs each week. That's "Service Above Self" to do ongoing service.
October 12 meeting was used for training...we practiced reading "Brady Brady and the Great Rink" for school presentations. Great job remembering the Four Way Test too!
Oct 19 meeting was 6:30 PM at Bloomington Ice Garden Community Room
The video educational program about Polio will be seen at another meeting.
