Summer Picnic

• We will be running a guitar raffle—the guitar is a brand new Seagull—please support NIBA and get some tickets!
• The picnic will take place on July 26th. Cindy Kline, our Madame Treasurer will be running it again, so please contact her with your ideas, and volunteer to help out.

Holiday Party

• We have secured a location for the party! Many thanks to Phyllis Christensen for getting in contact with Lil from Sugar Grove. The 2008 Holiday Party will be on Sunday December 28th, at the Community Center in Sugar Grove. My wife, Laura, has volunteered to handle the party this year. We will be looking at the possibility of different bands to play at the party this year, and of course we will be hosting our 3rd annual Chili Cook off, so get your recipes ready.
