Progressive FCE Club MeetsAugust 29, 2003 Members of the Eads Progressive FCE Club met at the Senior Center August 21st with Maxine Mays as the hostess. They were pleased to have Sis Howard’s daughter, Dr. Angela Howard as a guest from Texas. President Maxine and Vice President, Zelda Peterson, led the ladies in the reading of the creed. The members responded to roll call by relating "A new household hint I’ve read about or used". A number of ideas were shared such as the wonders of an aluminum blanket that costs about $2.00 used in cooler to keep foods cold for days on a camping trip, or the wonders of just plain water ands vinegar for cleaning. Ruth Wissel gave the treasurers and secretary’s report. During the Inspiration time, Doris Lessenden showed photos she had taken of youth in various activities this summer because she feels that youth is really our inspiration and our hope. The members laid many more plans for the programs, gifts, and decorations for the District 7 Achievement Day which we will host on October 2nd in Eads.

The highlight of the meeting was the program on the International Peace Gardens. Kaye Kasza showed slides and photos of these gardens which are on the borders of North Dakota-USA and Manitoba, Canada. The FCE clubs have donated money for years and years as have other groups such as the Lions Clubs, and the Masons to maintain lovely floral gardens, chapels, and meeting rooms at the compound. Various camps and conferences are held here year around. Tourists can camp or rent motel rooms, take tours and enjoy many other events. Maxine served an angel food –pineapple cake with nuts and coffee during the social hour with the help of Kaye Kasza.
