Last Wednesday, January 21st, was our first social night of the new year. We had a fabulous time playing Bar Bingo at Liberty Tap Room in Dryville. We had a great dinner, great drinks, and a really fun time playing bingo. And 2 of our members won prizes!
We are an active community and world service organization that knows how to have a good time! Check out our calendar and consider joining us for a club meeting or a social night.

Our tentative timeline is shown here:
NexTrex program change!
The NexTrex recycling program has changed, but we are going to continue to collect. Please see new details below. Please email or text your picture and the weight to Melissa Kirk or Laura McBride to get it recorded at NexTrex. If you are unable to drop off the plastic yourself, please bring it to a meeting.
Our total so far to put toward the 2026 year is over 1000 pounds! The recycling portal is not yet accessible for the new program but keep collecting and we will log it into the system as soon as we can.
