Stewards potluck and annual meeting
Dear Stewards,
Mark your calendars for Wednesday, October 26th at 6:00 PM - note the earlier start time - for a potluck supper before our annual meeting. Bring a dish to pass, a beverage, and table service. After enjoying a delicious meal and some good companionship, we'll move into the annual meeting. The annual budget/report will be discussed and officers will be elected for the coming year.
We are excited to discuss opportunities to work with the original Stewards of the Dells - the Ho-Chunk Nation. Our tour of Nine Eagles followed by a kayak trip from there to Louis Bluff will become an annual event. Jay Toth can also use help from the gardeners in our group to plant and maintain the prairie restoration being developed at the Kingsley Bend mounds.
We will discuss plans for a kayak raffle at Riverfest on June 9th. We are getting terrific support from Easton and Vertical Illusions as well as from Jesse DeFosse and the Showboat Saloon. With help to sponsor the kayak purchase and sell raffle tickets, we can raise good money with this raffle. Being part of Taste of the Dells will help Riverfest, too.
Bring your checkbooks for some early holiday shopping offerings: Stewards notecards and holiday cards, books, and Bonnie Alton's Dells calendar will be available. We have decided to sell mugs featuring the Stewards logo which will arrive in time for our annual Holiday Party on December 14th.
Thank you for your support of the Stewards mission: to preserve and protect the Dells of the Wisconsin River.
Debbie Kinder
President
