 Thank you to Wayne Trinka for the food donations on two separate occasions, the homemade sausage that was prepared for the Autobahn event and the food that was served Sunday at the New Phaze polka weekend. It was all delicious.

CHAIRMAN, BOARD OF DIRECTORS -  Dave Bonczkiewicz   – News and Notes -

   Well hello once again Pulaski club members I hope everyone had a happy and joyous Holiday! As we get back in the swing of things at the club it looks like the entertainment calendar is quite full, from Friday night “out of town bands” to our yearly scheduled events and even a “Honky Polka Weekend” event I had just booked (see attached  flyer). What else could be better than to get together with Polka/Polish family and friends?

Nothing new to report on club projects, we are still in need of donations, grants and or funding for our kitchen and roof projects.  Remember to keep the Pulaski Club in mind when filling out your “Will & Testament” or when giving your generous donations.

  We do have a new money maker that should help a little this year.   I am now licensed for the Arizona Lottery.  We have a new lottery pull ticket machine in the bar area for your enjoyment, this is just another way to make money for our club and get us to that goal of what we need for our projects.  Don’t forget about the Super Bowl TV raffle this too generates income for the club.  See any board member for tickets and info. Tickets are $10.00 each or 6 for $50.00.  If you have any ideas for fund raisers let us know?

   I ask you once again for your support on our out of town bands that I bring in, we need to cover the band with the door and I don’t think the price is too high $10.00 or $12.00.   Were else can you go to hear such TOP NOTCH entertainment?  I still see more out of town guests then the locals HUM what’s the problem?   If you have any ideas or suggestions feel free to drop me an email or catch me at the club and lets talk, I’m here along with the rest of the board officers to make this a place to be proud of.

   Frank is working on getting us a new welcome mat for the front entrance doors, look for that soon. The board officers also approved to bundle Direct TV, Wi-Fi and phone service to better our quality of life at the club and maybe bring in some revenue during special sporting events or Satellite TV features, we can then open the bar and generate some money. Seems like MONEY is the key, but like they say “to make money you have to spend money” lets just hope we are going in the right direction.   We also have our new club T-shirts for sale; see any officer to purchase one for only $12.00 to wear at our club events to show your support.
