Hi, Kosmos Friends!
The 4th of July has a special meaning for me this year. Mainly this is because our country is going through so much change, and people are divided on issues involving our Democracy.
I love this country. It has offered all Americans, no matter what their color, religion, sex, and personal beliefs, the right to be their own person. Our armed services have given their lives since our country has existed to keep those rights. GOD BLESS THEM! As we celebrate this holiday, please take a moment and reflect on all those who have helped to keep our freedom.
Also, reflect on the gifts of family and friends who have made our lives a blessing too. Over the years Kosmos has helped to bring people together and build friendships. We have supported each other through good and bad times. Thank you all for enriching my life.
—Sue R., Kosmos Leader

The 2025 General Membership Meeting and elections for leadership positions on the Kosmos Board coincide with our usual monthly happy hour and dinner at the SportsPage. We encourage as many of you as possible to attend and participate in your Club by voting, and it's not too late to be nominated for a position!
Our Leader nominees to be elected, so far, are:
Leader: | Donna W. |
Assistant Leader: | Marsha H. |
Secretary: | Open |
Treasurer: | Claudia T. |
Membership: | Sandy R. |
Activities: | Carolyn W. |
Newsletter: | Sharon G. |
We truly need a Secretary: someone to take notes at our monthly Board meeting, type them up, and get them distributed to the Board members. Note: Computer skills are necessary!
In addition to the elected Leaders, the rest of the Kosmos Board consists of several non-elected volunteers who serve as Coordinators and help with tasks under the Activities, Membership, and Newsletter Leaders. Most—but not all—of the Coodinator positions have already been filled, as follows:
Calling: | Nancy T. |
Games: | Gloria E. and Sue R. |
Reservations: | Carolyn W. |
Supplies: | Sue R. |
Sunshine: | Anna Mae S. |
E-mailing: | Donna W. |
Facebook: | Sharon G. |
Mailing: | Judy H. |
Website: | Open |
As you can see, there are still a couple opportunities for you to volunteer for. If you are interested in serving in any of the above positions, especially Secretary or Website Coordinator, please contact Leader Sue R.
Note: The open positions have been filled since the original publication of this Newsletter. However, Kosmos can always use more people to help and to volunteer. Contact Leader Donna W. or Membership Leader Sandy R. if you are interested in being more involved with helping the Club.
For more details about this and other newsletter items, please see the postal mail or e-mail versions of this newsletter.
