From the desk of the Director…
Here are just a few updates.
1. As the warmer weather returns, please remember that we will
be putting the air conditioning on. The building will be kept at 70
degrees. Remember to bring
a sweater if you are worried about being cold. 2. Inside this
month’s newsletter is a Save the Date for our upcoming Tea Party
in
October. This event promises to be a afternoon full of
excitement. There will be a fashion show, great Chinese Auction
Baskets and great tea party food favorites. We will also be looking
for volunteers to decorate a table. Keep
watching for more information. 3. Our Annual Thomas Angerman
Golf Outing is coming August 25, 2017. If
you would like to golf join us for this fun day; even if you do
not golf join us for lunch! The more the merrier. See front page
for cost. Remember all
proceeds go to programming and services here at the Center.
Have a great month!
