The Best Campfire Stories book

IT’S HERE!

The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club International is very pleased to announce the recent release of our very own book, “THE BEST CAMPFIRE STORIES.” It’s a great collection of short stories, written by some very talented authors, including Outdoors Club members!  These scary stories are perfect for reading around a blazing campfire, or snuggled under the covers in the comfort of your own bed late at night, with the coyotes (or maybe something else) howling away in the (near) distance.
The price of this book is only $14.95. The total amount including sale tax and shipping is $20.  All proceeds from the sale of this book will be used to print more copies of The Way to Happiness® booklet.* Order your copy today! Order copies for friends and relatives!  Please call now to order:

On the evening of Friday the 13th of June, The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club International held a fun-filled event to release, "THE BEST CAMPFIRE STORIES."   Held at a private campground at Lake Piru (California), many of the authors were on hand to read excerpts from their scary stories. Copies of our new book were sold and several authors were on hand to sign them. Some very nice donated items were auctioned off to raise money to print more copies of The Way to Happiness booklet. The festivities even included a few random appearances by our own Outdoors Club Scary Chicken, who was gracious enough to hang around and provide autographs for admiring attendees.  (Bawk, baaaaaaaawk!!)
“The Best Campfire Stories” will be also sold at sporting goods stores and other outlets throughout the country.  We are very excited about this and the potential for income that will be generated, because it will mean funding for MORE copies of The Way to Happiness booklet.  Our very own Kelly Reno, who has had fourteen of her own books published, is the originator of this project. She has put in many, many hours to pull it off and is now working very hard to get it into sales outlets.  One such outlet is the One Stoppe Shoppe, located in Clearwater, Florida.

Other Club News

Newly Formed Group
The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club International warmly welcomes a newly formed group, The Way to Happiness Professional Musicians Association, started by keyboardist Roger Harrison and drummer Bob Sullivan, who is also the executive director of our own Club.  Roger was so inspired by what The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club has done that he wanted to start such a group for musicians.  Welcome aboard!

We Now Have Our Own Boat
The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club was the recipient of a donated boat, a twenty-six foot (wooden) cabin cruiser, with a four- cylinder inboard. It’s a great boat, but it needs a paint job.  So, on Sunday, July 20th, we are going to have a “Sanding Party” to get her ready for a paint job.  If you can help out for a couple of hours, please call Bob Sullivan at 818-353-0120.

Upcoming Fishing Derby Fundraiser
Would you like to go fishing?  Would you like to help with the funding of more copies of The Way to Happiness booklet that will be distributed in the Los Angeles area?  Great!  The date of our next fishing derby will soon be released!  

Other Club Activities
In the past several months we have been active with various activities, including The International Camel & Ostrich Races in Virginia City, Nevada, where we got out thousands of copies of a custom-cover edition of the Way to Happiness booklet. Some of our bravest members even raced camels and ostriches!
Besides fishing derbies, we also held a wild game dinner, which featured kangaroo, elk, ostrich and other delectable items.
We’ve also recently had our revolver and pistol safety and marksmanship course, taught by Dick Sullivan.
If you have any ideas for fun activities that could raise funds for printing more copies of The Way to Happiness booklet, please let us know.

Weekly Meetings
The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club meets each Tuesday evening at 7:45.  Our meeting location is in Tujunga, California, at 10915 Deliban Avenue.  Please come check us out! Call Bob Sullivan for directions at: 818-353-0120

 

 

We have now funded 1.1 MILLION copies of The Way to Happiness booklet!  It's an awesome tool; whenever it gets put into an area,  conditions in that area improve.  Can you think of any areas that could use it?

CLEARWATER NEWS

   
     

The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club of Clearwater (Florida) is going strong with some very successful fund-raising events. Thirty-one golfers played in their recent golf tournament which raised $5,000 to print copies of The Way to Happiness booklet. Pictured above (left to right) are Dustin Kicinski, Charles Steele, Thom Kicinski, David Lurie and David Banks.

Their new office space located at 619 Cleveland Street is awesome! And they will soon put out 48,000 copies of The Way to Happiness booklet in the Clearwater/Tampa area. For info on future events or to volunteer, call them at 727-644-9006. (Note: They also need a paid, full-time sales person.)

EXPANSION NEWS

We are very excited about our next Outdoors Club chapter which will be opening very soon in East Grinstead, Sussex, England! A “very well done” to The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club Clearwater for recruiting David Banks to head it up! And a “very well done” to David Banks as well.

The success of The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club demands that we export it to communities all across The United States and the world. Right now, plans are in the works for Outdoors Club chapters in Houston, Austin, Seattle and Johannesburg, South Africa.

Operating your own chapter of The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club would not only be incredible fun, you would also be providing such a valuable service to your community and to mankind. If you or an acquaintance have any interest in opening a chapter of The Way to Happiness Outdoors Club, please pick up the phone and call Bob Sullivan at 818-353-0120

OUR NEW DVD

We now have a new DVD which shows us on a fishing trip with a group of kids, who are having a blast! The purpose of this beautifully done DVD is to provide a truly aesthetic and interesting means by which to make known who we are and what we do. This six-minute DVD does just that.

Thanks to Michael O'Brien and his son Christopher for donating their services to shoot and produce this DVD. We would like to thank Geoff Levin for donating the background music for it. Also, we would like to thank Mike Sullivan for creating our Outdoors Club logo which was used on this DVD cover.

Copies of our new DVD may be ordered for only $7 each by giving us a call at 818-353-0120. Included with each DVD order will be a custom-cover copy of The Way to Happiness booklet. Order your DVD today! Watch it; show it to your friends. Buy one and donate it to your local library! Spread the word!

358, 000 COPIES OUT!

To date, this figure is the total number of copies of The Way to Happiness booklet we have funded. Laid out in a straight line end-to-end, this number of booklets would stretch all the way from Pasadena's Rose Bowl to Disneyland in Anaheim!

And we're not going to slow down. We fully intend to hit the 1,000,000 mark by the end of 2006! There is a large demand out in society for The Way to Happiness booklet. And even with the high volume of booklets we've already funded and put out, the public demand is only increasing. Let's supply that demand right now! Let's put it out there!

WEEKLY MEETINGS

Regular weekly meetings are held on Wednesdays. In the Clearwater area, the meeting starts at 6:00 PM and is at their office, located at 619 Cleveland Street, Clearwater.
