I’ve been enjoying the cooler temperatures we have been having lately. Mornings are especially nice. One thing I’m particularly grateful for is that by the time you are pretty tired of one season, it starts changing to the next one. I don’t know if I have a favorite season, but I sure look forward to the change from one season to the next.
We had our Icream Social last week, and while we didn’t set the world on fire, we had an enjoyable time with those who did come. Plus, we made a few dollars to save for a rainy day. Thank you to our volunteers who served and cleaned up afterwards. They were as follows: John Danielson, Elsa Freeman, Charlie Caruso, Dana Munden,
Rex Hall, Lynda Yoder, and Sandy Nudo. Also, thank you to Donna Talbut for bringing those delicious Snickerdoodle cookies. If I forgot to mention anyone, please forgive me, as I’m writing this from home, and I don’t have my notes to refer back to.
This Thursday, August 7th, is our monthly Bingo Game from 6 to 8 pm. Light refreshments will be provided.
Our Split-the-pot fundraiser will continue throughout August, with the drawing to be held on Wednesday, September 3rd, right after the Labor Day holiday.
Our secretary, Lynda Yoder, has hung a calendar of activities in one of the front windows so everyone can see what is going on.
