Interclub
Chair Warren Mitchell reports that the trip to Berlin on Tuesday,
July 10 (raindate July 17) will leave NAPA Auto Parts at 3:00
p.m. Sgt.-at-Arms Roger Landry will not be bringing his car,
so if you want to go by 4-wheels, make your own pool. Plan on
a cookout and boce play.
Win a Classic!
V.P. Phil Bonafide (presiding; Pres. Don Nelson is away for a
couple of weeks) reports that Meredith Harley-Davidson is "pretty
sure" we will be able to have our 2002 blue and ice, fuel-injected
Heritage Softtail Classic in September. Confirmation is expected
in the near future.
Happy Birthday to Us
V.P. Phil Bonafide says that V.P. Larry Murphy is starting to
put together our 75th Anniversary celebration.
Bulletin Sponsors Needed
V.P. Phil Bonafide will have forms next week to sign up bulletin
patrons for the coming year.
50/50
Guest Speaker Rick Doran, $27, which he donated to the club.
Fines
Sgt.@Arms Roger Landry found Roger Ballantyne, Dianne Roberts,
and Scott Beane pinless--he missed The Nancies.
A Friend in Need
Charlie St. Clair has established collection points through the
Lakeside Sharks and our club for donations towards funeral expenses
for 39-year-old cancer victim Tessie Rogers. They are about $2700
short.
Happy Dollar
Jim Fortier came up with a buck for the end of the Fourth of
July Celebration. Cudos to him and Immediate Past Lt. Gov. Chet
Cilley for promoting our club through this even.
Guest Speaker
V.P. Phil Bonafide introduced former neighbor Rick Doran, Pres.
of People First, Consultants in People, Process, and Planning.
After 33 years with Allstate Insurance, the last 12 as in-house
corporate consultant, he started People First seven years ago.
He maintains that the key to a strong business is solid, lasting
relationships. With this as its foundation, People First helps
organizations become stronger by demonstrating how a team-driven,
customer-focused environment, working hand-in-hand with a strong
leadership, can enhance employee commitment and customer satisfaction.
People First guides your employees and/or executives through
result-oriented, tailor made programs presented in half- to multiple-day
training sessions. Rick Doran presented a whole seminar into
a half-hour for the club. He focused on the need to change our
perceptions by avoiding wrong premises or working with incomplete
information. 14 Do's and Don't's were presented to help build
effective relationships. People First, who will be in the area
in November, may be contacted at 317-574-0272.

Marking Our Turf
Warren Mitchell advises that he has placed our new locations
signs on the club boards at city entrances. He observes that
the Rte. 106 and Rte. 3N locations could use a bit of landscaping
and wonders if the club might do something about it.
Final Scenes from the Boardwalk
Here's the last batch of the Best of Steve Loughlin. You will
note an abudance of shots of V.P. Phil Bonafide. This could
be that he is just so darned photogenic...or maybe because he
was just there all the time.
Chair Phil Bonafide keeps his lemonade holstered for quick draws on the straw.

"Where can I get a tattoo like that?", Warren Mitchell tactfully asks.
