President's message:

Help “Renew” Our Center
The spring is here again. Hoping that your flowers will be plentiful and the weeds take a nap! Pretty soon it will be Easter-wishing you a great one! Our jewelry sale from our seniors and friends raised over $1200. Thanks again for your support and to all the volunteers for their time. Here’s hoping that our next jewelry sale in September will be as successful. We will keep you advised in the coming months with future details so you can mark your calendars. There will also be a fundraiser in August-more details on that will soon be announced, keep watching and reading bulletins & flyers for future news. As your President I still need to remind everyone the center needs financial support to keep our doors open. The Gift/Thrift Shop needs your continued donations of “gently-used” clothing and household goodies. Word is out about the great deals you can get and we have more and more people coming in to check the shop out daily. In April the center will honor the “Volunteer of the Year”. All volunteers please make sure you have submitted your choice for honoree this year.

President Executive Board
