President's Message
Hello United Singles Members!
The other members of the Board and I are often asked the question, “Why should we become members of United Singles if TGIF and other activities are free?” True, we have some free activities but we also have bills to pay, the most expensive of them being liability insurance, $633 per year. We also pay for printing and mailing the newsletter, we pay a bookkeeper, we submit an annual fee for continuing our non-profit status, and we often provide the meat dish when we have a special dance or potluck. Since we cannot charge admission to TGIF at Bailey’s, we rely on memberships and donations to pay the bills.
If you enjoy United Singles functions, please think seriously about joining or renewing your membership. Membership is only $30 per year, and applications are available at TGIF, from a board member, or online at www.unitedsingles.org,.
It’s a brand new year (can you believe it’s 2010!) and I want to take a moment to thank all of you for supporting United Singles. We don’t often take the time to say “thank you”, and the Board wants you to know that we appreciate your support at TGIF and our other functions.
Your US President,
Jim Parshall

WHAT IS UNITED SINGLES?
It's a non-profit club of single persons centered in the Olympia area with a membership of over 200.
People have referred to it as the "best of the best" club for singles in the Southwest Washington area because of the quality of the membership.
It was organized in 1975 and is not affiliated with any group or church and does not have any chapters or branch offices. It is a club unique in and of itself—"A one of a kind."
There are an almost equal number of men and women in the club and the age ranges of the membership are 30's to 80's. You will find, however, that everyone you meet has something to offer you, whether they are young or old.
