- Dates to Remember:
- Friday – WCS Meeting @…
- July 13th - Next Entertainment Committee meeting at 6PM at Phillips on 141st Street. All members are welcome especially new members. We value your ideas and feedback. Meetings are usually about an hour and some of us stay for eats and drinks.
- Members please bring plastic or paper shopping bags to the monthly Roost meetings. The bags will be taken to Diakonia by Eric for use in distributing food donations to the community.
- Dues are past due. Again, it's $30 per member; please make checks out to Ravens Roost #44. Our membership cards are white this year, hoping to make them easier to read when you wear them to every meeting. Hopefully, you still have the plastic holder from last year to use again this year. Mail your dues to me at: 126 Pine Tree Rd., Ocean City, MD 21842. Thanks, Jo Ann.
- From the Prez: This from last Friday's Council meeting from Sue Draper (these are not Ravens Roost #44 functions): At Friday night’s Council meeting we discussed two upcoming events for the Council.
- 1. The Jets vs Ravens game at Met Life Stadium on October 23. Jim is trying to get an approximate count of how many Roost members would be interested in taking a day bus trip up to the game. Game tickets would be approximately $70 and we would be seated together. We are currently getting prices for buses. PLEASE SURVEY YOUR MEMBERS ASAP AND SEE HOW MANY ARE INTERESTED so we can give the Jets an approximate count. Reply to this email or contact Jim at byteme0904@msn.com by Wednesday, June 22. I know this is short notice but they want to set our tickets aside before they go on sale to the general public.
- 2. The Dip Bowl has been rescheduled for Saturday, September 24 at the Horseshoe Casino in downtown Baltimore. The categories will be hot and cold dips. Proceeds will go to the Brigance Brigade Foundation.

Music
- Poop Music has been discontinued. It's just too much work and I don't have the time. If someone would like to compile it and email it to me on Tuesday so I can cut and paste it, that'd be awesome, but I just don't have the time to put it together every week. Sorry.
Funny
Poop
- "And will there be anything else, sir ?" the bellboy asked after setting out an elaborate dinner for two."No thank you." the gentleman replied. "That will be all."As the young man turned to leave, he noticed a beautiful satin negligee on the bed. "Anything for your wife ?" he asked."Yeah ! That's a good idea." the fellow said. "Please bring up a postcard."
Etcetera
- Got poop? Let me know! I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday I’ll try to include it. Your input is appreciated.
