We still have extra kolbász for sale. Please contact Mark S. Maskarinec or Lisa Toth-Maskarinec at 412-872-5022 should you like to purchase any. Price is $5.50 per pound and can be purchased in either rings or patties. Shipping is also available, although once the temperature gets into the 90s, shipping becomes more difficult and quite expensive. Among the branch activities in the planning stages are two outings to the ballpark. The first will be on Wednesday, Aug. 19, and will feature a wine tasting before the game. Cost for this game is $70 per person. The second outing will be on Wednesday, Sept. 30, and will include a pre-game beer tasting. This game will cost $60 per person. The price for each game includes your game ticket, the beer or wine tasting and $10 towards concession purchases. Seating is limited, so please call Branch Coordinator Lisa Toth-Maskarinec as soon as possible to reserve your seats. While we may not be as big as some of the other branches, we are still strong and we look forward to meeting a lot of our members in the upcoming year at some of these events. Branch 89 continues to collect codes from Coke products. These codes will be turned into points which can then be redeemed for various merchandise and prizes to be used at our outings. We have collected and redeemed over 8,000 Coke Rewards points. We will be able to give away higher valued merchandise for next to no cost for the branch. Thanks to all who have helped us. Anyone with any codes can email them to me at maskarinacl836@comcast.net or send them to 1836 Timothy Drive, West Mifflin, PA 15122. We are also collecting Kellogg's Family Rewards Points. The codes are found inside the box of Kellogg's, Keebler, Sunshine and Morningstar Farms products featuring the Family Reward Points insignia. Just cut out the code, mail it to us and we'll do the rest. Special thank you to all who have contributed the codes. So far we have "purchased" a collapsible ottoman, a beach blanket/tote, a beach blanket/lounge cover and a NASCAR Cheez-It snuggie. We are closing in on several more items, including golf balls and USB/Bluetooth bracelets. To our special contributor from Ohio, we have your hat. We will be shipping it out to you within the next few weeks. We promise! And to the contributor of the massive amount of Coke bottle caps, we haven't forgotten you. We have a little something to show our appreciation. We hope everyone enjoyed the 4th of July. What wonderful celebrations were seen on television. We truly are very fortunate to live in this great nation. Belated anniversary wishes go out to our branch vice president, who also happens to be my husband, Mark Maskarinec, on our ninth wedding anniversary on July 14. How fast the time flies. I still think the church is trying to get over so many people dressed in kilts, a bride carrying golf clubs in her bouquet and a groom carrying a golf club with a Notre Dame headcover on it. And let's not forget the huge cherry red hummer that transported dad and the bridal party to the church and then to the reception. You just had to be there to appreciate the entire day. Time sure does fly! Please contact me if you'd like to see other activities, and we'll do our best to accommodate those requests. For any of your insurance needs, please continue to call Ruth Toth at 412-872-5022. Branch 129 Columbus, OH by Debbie Lewis Greetings from Columbus, Ohio. The weather here hasn't been very good so far this summer. We have had many days of rain, but at least it hasn't been too hot. We did have great weather on July 4th for picnics, parades and fireworks. Hopefully we will have less rain throughout the rest of the summer. We would like to wish a warm welcome to our newest branch members, Chi Le and Jeremy Lester. On Sunday, Aug. 9, after the 10:00 a.m. service, there will be a program at the Hungarian Reformed Church, located at 365 E. Woodrow Ave. in Columbus. Soup will be served at 11:15 a.m. followed by a presentation by two Columbus youths, Ava 20 0 August 2015 0 William Penn Life
