  • RYLA Service---To start Linda’s year…..our club is serving breakfast, Thursday, July 2 at 7:15AM at Twin Lakes Family YMCA, 1902 S Bell Blvd (or  204 E Little Elm Trail per Google), Cedar Park.  We have six slots for breakfast and have two filled. All volunteers will need to fill out a form for background checks AND take the 30 minute online “Protecting Youth Program Participants” course. All club members are encouraged to take the course, it’s good to have. Jim McComb and Mickie Powers added their names to the list.  More volunteers are needed.
