Liberty Key Club will hold a car wash at Applebee's in Howell (Route 9) Sunday, August 3 from 9 a.m. until Noon.
KCOJ will hold its board meeting Aug. 4 (special date) at the Whitesville Fire House, 6:30 p.m. Everyone is especially welcome to attend this board meeting. The Key Clubs will try out their new menu item for Jackson Day: Frito Pies and Walkin' Tacos. Two Key Clubs will host their board meetings that night, too. This will be a great opportunity to see your club and its sponsored programs in action.
We are trying to figure out what we want to do for our first meeting of the month, Aug. 14. The NJ District of Circle K is hosting a fireworks cruise that evening and we'd like to see the club participate. Can you make it? The cost is $15 per person. Circle K has chartered two ships the will leave from Point Pleasant. Floyd and Larry need to know ASAP if you will attend.
The district convention will be held Aug. 22-24. We will have more information for you.
On Aug. 28 President-elect Fran will conduct a club analysis and we would like everyone to attend. We'll discuss the club's strengths and weaknesses, as well as ways we'd like to see the club grow.

Tri-Key Club officer installation
KCOJ conducted officer installations for all three Key Clubs that it sponsors at the Whiteville Fire House on May 29. Thanks to Floyd, Donna, Ted & Lois for getting it organized. President-elect Fran was the emcee and LtG John Hale delivered the key note speech.
BBBSBowling
Our members took part in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Bowling fundraiser a couple of weeks ago. We raised the most money in the community service category. Our own "ringer" Fran took the trophy of the highest scorre: 199!
KCOJ events in July
Project Life Saver July 10
We will have a special presentation at our Thursday, July 10th (6:45 p.m.) Captain Richard Casagrand, of the Berkley Twp. Police Dept., will speak about Project Lifesaver, a program which provides monitoring services to Alzheimers patients and autistic children so they can be located if they go wandering unsupervised.
We are expecting guests from other clubs and have been moved into the larger room off the main dining room. The View needs a headcount because we are going to be a larger group than usual. Therefore, please check your calendar and drop me an RSVP email IF YOU ARE COMING. No need to contact me if you do not expect to be able to attend...
Thank you! Donna

Miniature golf July 24
The Kiwanis Club of Jackson Open, aka Miniature Golf at Fit Golf Center (2156 Route 37 West, Manchester - 732-657-3227) will tee off at 6:30 p.m. Cost for 18 holes is $6 per adult and $4 per child. We will provide the dinner of champions: pizza. You're on your own for drinks. Fit GC has their new soda machines and their agreement with the vending company is no soda brought on site.
It will be a handicapped event, meaning that we will deduct a stroke off your score for each correct answer that you give on our Kiwanis "test." And we'll even handicap the handicap by having three levels of questions: "newbes," "old timers," and "Ted."
I told them we'd have about 25 to 30. Can we get more to attend? I hope so. Let me know if you'll be there so I know how many pizzas to eat.
See you then. And for those even more fortunate ones I'll see you the next day at Kiwanis Night at the Blueclaws the following night.
