CALLING ALL
WALKERS/RUNNERS
who PLAN to
JOIN US in
THIS FIGHT:
We will be
MEETING at The
Hard Bean on
Monday AUGUST
3, 7 to 8:30
p.m.
Even if you
have not
registered
with LLS for
one of the two
events, but
intend to
participate,
please do try
to be here for
this meeting!
LLS LIGHT THE
NIGHT
to be held
Friday night
September 25
at Corporate
Woods,
is a family
event that
also raises
money for the
LLS. The walk
is slower
paced than the
KC Marathon,
is only 3+
miles, and is
part of many
activities
going on at
the same time.
In order to be
a TEAM, we
must have a
minimum of 10
members and we
must commit to
raising a
minimum of
$200 each.
If you would
like to join
us, we need
to know ASAP.
Of course, we
can walk
individually
and meet up
there. That
works, too.
Both teams
will honor the
memory of Bill
Paskewich and
our other
family and
friends – both
victims and
survivors.
Bill Paskewich,
as many of you
know, is
Becca’s Uncle
Bill (Cheryl’s
sister’s
husband.) He
recently lost
a valiant
fight with
lymphoma.
Besides being
a great man
who made a
positive
difference in
the lives of
many hundreds
of people,
Bill was a
coach, an
athlete and
runner and
supporter of
the LLS. In
fact, having
run 15
marathons
himself, he
had planned to
run additional
marathons for
LLS with his
stepdaughter
once he was
settled into
his new town
last year.
That plan, of
course, did
not happen.
However, his
stepdaughter
and son-in-law
are still
running for
him, and now
his wife and
many others on
the east coast
will be
joining – all
to fight the
monster that
steals.

with prayer
and/or money

know more ways
to help
finance the
teams at a

HB WRITERS
CIRCLE
is a group
that
encourages
people to
write – people
who love to
write and wish
they did,
people who
used to write
and want to
get back to
writing
regularly and
people who are
published and
love to share
their gifts
and help
others. We are
not primarily
a critique
group, though
we will offer
positive
evaluation and
criticism if
the author so
desires.
We offer
insights,
networking and
resource
information
for writers .
The HB Writers
Circle is open
to anyone from
post high
school through
age 100+ and
meets on the
2nd
and 4th
Saturdays from
9:30 to 11:30
a.m.
HACWN WRITERS
CRITIQUE GROUP
– Heartland of
America
Christian
Writers
(HACWN) Group
Critique Group
meets at The
Hard Bean
on the 2nd
and 4th
Monday nights
from 7 to 9
p.m.
Cheryl Wills
facilitates
this group.
Please contact
her at
Cheryl@HardBean.net
for
information.
This group is
growing and is
an invaluable
resource for
writers at
every level.
NO MEETING ON
LABOR DAY
KIDS’ WRITING
CLUB SHINING
STARS
Shining Stars
is open to
children ages
9 thru 12 who
enjoy writing
– stories or
poems - every
chance they
get, not just
when assigned!
This group is
led by Dana
Sowerby and
meets twice a
month
at The Bean.
Activities are
centered
around fun
writing
exercises,
with no actual
homework or
assignments. This
is not a place
for children
to be taught
how to read or
write or to be
tutored.
Naturally,
help and
encouragement
are integrated
in the time
spent
together. It
is more like
an enhancement
to what
students are
doing in their
schools.
Parents will
be required to
sign
permission
slips for
children’s
participation.
Parents should
keep in mind
that no
outside food
or drink may
be brought
into The Hard
Bean and
should plan
accordingly
for their
children’s
needs.
WILL RESUME IN
THE FALL
BOX LUNCH
DEALS FOREVER!
We’ve made it
easy for
everyone: one
price for all
Basic Boxes
($8.69), one
price for all
Momma Boxes
($8.99)! But,
wait, there’s
more! That’s
right – more
in the box!
Now the Hard
Bean Box Lunch
includes your
sandwich, a
bag of chips,
a great big
cookie AND a
drink (coke
product or
bottle of
water)! That’s
why we’ve
called it a
BOX LUNCH
DEAL!
2 sizes COFFEE
TOTES TO GO
–
We
now carry not
just the 76 oz
size coffee
totes to go
(with 7 cups,
stirrers, etc)
but also totes
that add size
and save
money.
Our new coffee
tote will hold
FIVE (5) of
those smaller
boxes of
coffee,
serving 35
cups of
coffee.
They’ll both
keep coffee
piping hot for
at least 4
hours.
And, as we
said, it will
save you money
over ordering
several of the
smaller totes.
We do need at
least 45
minutes
advance notice
for every one
large tote
ordered, but
it’s worth
knowing in
advance that
you’d like
one!
