Old Business: Dining: For those few who stayed, we ordered from the Tech City Café counter and ate at same tables used during bowling. A bit noisy but can order any time. New Business: Next Service Project: Since Easter is early (April 1st, no fooling), we will miss stuffing eggs but Mother’s Day is approaching so we will make Mother’s Day Cards.  Kiwanis News: California: U.S. Rep. Jim Costa (D-Calif.) recently presented an Aktion Club with a Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition to celebrate the inaugural Aktion Club Week. "This is a nice recognition," said Howard Jackson, Aktion Club district administrator of the CaliforniaNevada-Hawaii District. "This is well deserved." Your service matters!  WHAT’S NEXT? 20 Apr 2018 (3rd Saturday of Month) 11:45 AM at TechCity Bowl for 1-hour bowling 12:15 to 1:15 PM & lunch meeting 1:15 to 2:15pm at Tech City Café.
