Hi everybody! I hope you're all doing well today. I'm writing this on Monday morning and it's a beautiful morning full of sunshine. We are on our way to Yukon and I see a lot of the fields have been cut and baled. It's not a good year for wheat I guess. Not enough rain when it was needed.
Saturday night we had 26 come in to enjoy the music, eat, and play games. We had a great time. Our next game night will be May 28. Plan on joining us. We meet from 6 to 9 p.m.
Bob and Gene Matli got a new quilt in the frames. It's a Bowtie pattern made by Marsha Matli. Really pretty. Come by and see it, and quilt on it if you'd like. Quilters meet on Thursday mornings. They'd be glad to have you join them.
This Friday, the 20th, will be a busy day at the Center. First, the ladies from the hospital will be here to do blood pressure/blood sugar tests around 10:30. We really appreciate these ladies coming in to do the tests. It helps some of us keep a check on how our bodies are doing. Then at 11 a.m. Stacy from the Area Agency on Aging will be here to speak with us about some new scams showing up. She'll have some handouts and will talk about some other things as well. Come in and see what she has to say.
Monday, May 30, we'll be closed for Memorial Day. We want to honor all those veterans that gave their lives for our freedom. American Legion will be holding a special service at the IOOF Cemetery at 10 a.m. to remember all our veterans. Bring your lawn chair and hat or umbrella to join in. This day we also remember our loved ones we've lost. No one is forgotten.
Last week Pat Brewer, Karen Dugger and Sharon Barnes, Curt and Brenda Stein, Janice Hood, and Vernon Brickman delivered our meals for us. Thanks to all of you.
