FCE Lamplighter Club met July 19 at the home of Beverly Meyer. Since Judy Strickland, president, was attending a meeting in Dallas, Texas, Karen McLane, vice president, presided over the meeting.
Meyer gave the devotion which was, "May the good Lord bless and keep you." For roll call, each member told about a preventive burglar measure.
JoAnn Hahs read the May and June minutes and Linda Sebaugh gave the treasurer's report. Both were approved and placed on record as read.
Under unfinished business, members were to bring books for newborns. Club labels were placed on each book. Verla Mangels and Hahs will deliver the books to the hospital to be given to new mothers.
New business was discussed. The MAFCE Conference will be Aug. 28 and 29, in Jefferson City, Missouri. Members who desire to go may get a registration form from McLane or Hahs. Also, there are scholarship forms for first time attendees. Members are to collect school supplies and bring to the August meeting.
Mangels reported on the trip to The Muny Opera to see "Singin' in the Rain" and said the play was wonderful. And before the play they had supper at the Cheesecake Factory.
After the discussing the old and new business, JoAnn Hahs gave a program titled, "Outsmart the Burglar" and Dodie Eisenhauer gave a program, "Energy Saving Game."
