We had a pretty good turnout and all the volunteers efforts are greatly appreciated.

On a side note, there was a donation made today to the GCSA, and the donating couple thought it would be nice if the GCSA community could take a child’s name or two off of the angel tree in the lobby in the spirit of Christmas.  What a great idea!

Let’s see what we can do to make sure each remaining child on the angel tree gets a gift for Christmas!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Congrats to the GC Monday Fall Team!  They captured first place in the E Division/Level 4A with a 6-6 record!   Way to go, another great fall season.

Paul Edge has asked me to send out another request for volunteers to help sell concessions at Bingo on Wednesdays.  Lots of spots are still open for the rest of the 2023/2024 season.  Two people can handle the concessions but 3 is better.  If you volunteer you need to be in the ball room by 5:45 – you’ll be home by 8:30ish.  Click here to see the schedule–>Bingo Concessions schedule .

Good afternoon everyone!  First of all, great turnout at the “Pit” last night, it was nice to see everyone there!

There is a new page on the web site for members to look at, that has the Bingo Concessions volunteer schedule.  Click here to see the page –>  Bingo Concessions Volunteer Schedule .

We need 2-3 volunteers for each bingo event to serve popcorn, sodas and water. Arrive at 6:30, leave by 8:30 ish. We need volunteers every Wednesday until the end of March.

Please think about volunteering some of your time to help sell concessions, it would be greatly appreciated!

If you want to commit to volunteering some time, just send an email to gcsa.web.master@gmail.com with the dates and times.

Thanks!

I have a correction to yesterday’s news item. Helen Pianowski and Tara Mullen are co-managing the Pancake Breakfast dining room efforts this year.   Thanks to both of you!

Good afternoon members!

First of all, the GCSA board would like to extend a BIG “THANK YOU” to Helen Pianowski, who stepped up and will be handling the vast majority of advance ticket sales for our principal fund raiser, the Pancake Breakfast!  In addition, she is also assuming the Dining Room Manager duties this year!   Way to go Helen!

As most of you know, It takes a lot of work to keep our softball organization moving in the right direction, and it has gotten to the point where we need to seek out more volunteers from our membership!  Since Roberts will not be making any donations to our organization in the future, it’s up to us!

We have two areas that need volunteers ASAP!

Soft drink(Pop) Vending Machine – Roberts has allowed us to use the soft drink vending machine next to the post office to generate some income.  The duties would include purchasing soft drinks(with GCSA funds), loading the machine, and collecting the money from the machine and taking to the treasurer, Doug Keiper.  An hour to stock the machine and a couple hours every few weeks to purchase stock is all it would take.

We also need 4 volunteers who can take turns selling concessions at Bingo on Wednesdays from 7-9 PM.

If interested, please email Don Pier at don.pier5@yahoo.com or call/text 920-279-5202.

We decided to throw in a bonus for “The Pit” next Tuesday(Nov 21)!   We’ll be serving chili dogs!

We’ll supply the dogs, buns, chili, onions.   It would be greatly appreciated if members could bring extra condiments for the chili dogs – (i.e. tomatoes, cheese, guacamole, ketchup, mustard ,pickles, etc).   Whatever you can think of!

Hope to see everyone there!

We purchased a new tire for the Jugs machine, and it’s installed!   Head on over to the cage and see what you think!

Pancake breakfast polo shirts cost $25 up to and including extra large sizes. $3 additional charge for name embroidered.

Jackets cost $55 up to and including extra large sizes. (Includes name).

Contact Doug Keiper at 503-319-5164 or fdkpdx1@msn.com.

ORDERS MUST BE IN BY DECEMBER 1ST!!!

Darcy Sask is again volunteering to pick up aluminum cans and clear plastic water bottles from any site in the park on Wednesdays. Just send him a text at 780-933-5344 and tell him what site to pick them up. He said it’s also OK to drop them off at his site, 384 on New Mexico.

Someone left sunglasses at the “Pit” yesterday.    Contact me, at 717-926-4325 to pick them up.
