Service clubs should unite in projects

Re: “No more roast beef sandwiches, as some clubs end struggle to staff Lakefair booths” (7/14)

A very simple solution to the problem of service clubs membership declining —various clubs should “team up” together to provide people power for food booths, etc. This would be a win-win for the clubs and the community. Share the profits for their charitable causes. The Lions club in the Olympia area already do this. Lakefair seemed a little barer this year without the Kiwanis roast beef sandwiches and corn dogs from the Rotarians.
