PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS:

I need to make a correction to the last bulletin :  John and Jennifer Bullis from J.B. Roofing were our honored guests.  They have gave the use of their building to Pals Boxing until they sold just recently.

Sorry for the mistake.

George Coombs with the Caldwell Night Rodeo spoke at the dinner Meeting that was held at the TNT Dynamite Café. He talked about some additions this year at the Rodeo. The Caldwell night Rodeo will be holding is 1^st Annual Chicks n Chaps Rodeo Clinic.  The girls will meet PRCA Cowboys and Cowgirls , learn about roping and riding in the rodeo arena,  The proceeds will be go to the Power of Pink to support Breast Cancer Awareness. For more information visit the website www.chicksnchaps.org at Caldwell Night Rodeo.  Sounds like a fun event.

 

SOCCER NEWS

Soccer season starts in March.  Optimist will be needing volunteers to help in the concession stand on Saturdays.  Please think about when you would be able to help.

The soccer board is looking for a volunteer to help with the organizing and with the distribution of uniforms prior the starting the games.  This would take approximately 2 weeks per year.

Also they are asking for help in contacting sponsors that have sponsored in previous years.  They have list and would like some volunteers to contact 2 or 3 sponsor from this list. 

If you want to help with the sponsors or are willing to help with uniforms, please contact Bob Kafka.

BOXING

The General Membership voted to add the amendment to the bylaws on February 20^th.  The proposed bylaw change is to a new sub-section 7.4.2 to Article VII, section 4 as follows, 7.4.2 Caldwell Optimist Youth Boxing: “Caldwell Optimist Youth Boxing” is a standing committee of this Corporation and is duly formed and existing and governed under these Bylaws and under Bylaws of Caldwell Optimist Youth Boxing (COYB) attached hereto marked Exhibit 7.4.2 and by this reference incorporated herein these Bylaws.

This will give our Optimist Club two youth chapters – COSC and COYB.
