President’s Message

 

I would like to thank all that came out to our meeting.

 

Donna had a plaque made from our club to be given to Leona Adams for a lifetime membership. Don gave it to her Friday afternoon as I had to work, she was excited to get it and loved it very much.

 

I would like to say thanks to our Dennis Chapman for all the great work he does for our paper, and putting up with me.

 

We voted in November to get a TV to use up at the Senior Citizen Center. Larry Higley got it and it is now sitting in my hallway. Don is going to try and get it up there this week sometime.

 

I can’t hardly wait for you snowbirds to come home.

 

Love you all very, I hope this finds everyone Well and Happy.

 

Good Luck Always

Ruth S. Smith

President

The meeting was called to order by president Ruth Smith every one was welcomed, the minutes of the last meeting were read and approved.   The treasurers report was read and approved.   The show expenses were discussed Larry said he had not figured it out completely but he estimated it costs about two thousand dollars for  the basic items.   It was brought to our attention that the Dow James building is now used by the boy’s and girls club, we wondered if this will have an impact on us using it for our show, it was reported that we have the building reserved for our show but we will check to make sure that we are not affected by this change.   

 

The steak fry was discussed in the old days we did not have to do any crafts we just had a good meal and fun, Ruth thinks we should do it that way again and have our crafts on some other day, we will discuss this idea later when the snow birds return, and see what the majority thinks about this.  Selma sent a thank you note for the fruit basket the club sent her, Selma will have surgery on the 20th at ST Marks Hospital , we all wish her well.   Leona Adams had another setback and had to spend some time in the hospital Ruth sent her a fruit basket , we hope she gets feeling better soon.   Their was a question about what time search and rescue people are on station during our show it was unclear what time they are to be their so we will check into it and get some answers.   Larry Wilson will bring the treats for our next meeting.   Ruth Smith won the door prize.   The meeting was adjourned.

Sorry The Newsletter’s Late:

I apologize it is so late this month. I went on a trip to Texas at the end of February & I just couldn’t get everything finished before I left. Also mom’s went into the hospital with congestion & low oxygen count.

 

Get Well Soon:

To all of you: Dean Richardson's wife, Joyce, became ill at Quartzsite. Doctors in Parker discovered a lump the size of a walnut in her lungs, so they went home to SLC. Another X-ray there showed the lump had grown to the size of a grapefruit in that short time. It looks very grim for Joyce.  Now I want each of you to send her your collective positive thinking. Miracles DO happen, and we hope this will be another one. If you know someone who knows them and would want to know that is not on this list, do let them know.  They need our circle of love at this time.
