Talk Tacoma Rainiers baseball, new stadium at Lakewood United

May 14, 2013 By Ben Sclair

By Robin Rego, President

The Lakewood United group meets at 7 AM every Thursday at Burs Restaurant, which is located at 6151 Steilacoom Boulevard SW in Lakewood.  The events for the next four weeks are as follows:

  • May 16, 2013 – Tacoma Rainiers: A Look at the Ballpark and the 2013 Season – Joe Corona, Corporate Sales Manager (John Huber – MC)
  • May 23, 2013 – “Reflecting Back on Seven Years as President of Clover Park Technical College” – John Walstrum, President (Steve Smith – MC)
  • May 30, 2013 – “Lakewood’s Connections to the American Civil War” – Nick Adams, Local Author/Historian of the American Civil War (Pamela Maddess – MC)
  • June 6, 2013 – “What To Do to Make It through a Catastrophe?” – Kristin Tinsley, Pierce County Emergency Management (Robin Rego – MC)

The dues for our fiscal year, which starts on July 1, 2013, are $20 per year.  This equates to less than 40 cents every Thursday, thanks to our volunteer board.  Incidentally, our guest speakers only charge us the cost of a breakfast.  You can pay your dues by mail to: Lakewood United, P.O. Box 99785, Lakewood, WA 98496 or directly to our Treasurer, John Huber, if he is present at the weekly Thursday morning events.

Our governing Board consists of eleven directors who serve two year terms.  Six of these directors’ terms expire this year on June 30.  If you are interested in running for the Board, please contact Jim Beaudoin or Evelyn Kelly who are on the Recruiting Committee.  Please do so by June 6, 2013.

Burs Restaurant does not charge us a room fee.  Hence, please ensure that you at least order a beverage if you attend the meeting and remember to leave a gratuity.

If you wish to make suggestions for future topics or speakers, please contact any of our board members Jim Beaudoin, Don Daniels, Ernest Heller, John Huber, Kris Kauffman, Evelyn Kelly, Karen Lebeter, Pamela Maddess, Steve Smith, Herb Stumpf or Robin Rego.

For those of you who are only receiving this notice as a handout at the weekly meetings and would like to get it by email, please contact me at rarego@lakeviewlight.com.  Alternatively, or if you are a visitor, you can note your name and email address on the Sign Up sheet at the Thursday morning events.  Lakewood United is now on Facebook: www.facebook.com/LakewoodUnitedofLakewoodWashington.
