We will have the Architzel Memorial Game which will be held in Beach Lake on September 9th this year and we will also hold the Annual Unit meeting before the game - so plan to come a bit early. Game time is 12 noon so I presume the meeting will start around 11:30. Am still working out details on cost as everything has gone up including the meal. I will have full details for next month but please save the date. Our unit parties are on the verge of extinction so please come out and support this one so The Board of Directors knows that you all like Unit parties.
