Dates to remember: Sunday,
Aug. 2, right after church, fund
raiser barbeque dinner sponsor-
ed by the Friends of Elder
Citizens, Inc. Board of Directors.
Tickets are $4 and available at
the Sporting Goods Store or City
State Bank. Donations of chick-
ens, brisket, or money are asked
which is similar to all the donated
food the fund raising barbeque
put on by the participants and
staff of the Center last year.
Please bring doantions to the
Center marked “Fund raiser”.
There are now 18 registered
with $7 fee for the defensive
driving sponsored by the 55+
Club of the hospital district and
presented by AARP. This is more
than enough for the class to take
place Thursday and Friday, Aug
G-7,8 a.m. to 12 noon at Weimer
Hall of the First Methodist
Church. The class can serve up to
30 people. Those interested may
call Pat Howarth at 972-2014 or
972-2715. There are no written or
road tests which have concerned
some people. These classes are
lectures and films only. A 10%
discount on insurance for three
years is a plus.
Project Council met Tuesday,
July 7, and passed unanimously
the new set of by-laws. Each
article was read and, if needed,
questions were answered. They
were considered to be a very
good coverage of all areas and
should be appropriate for a long
time.
Forty took part in the health
screening last Tuesday. The
vascular screening was postpon-
ed due to illness of the tech-
nician, but will be rescheduled.
Dance exercise on Mondays
and Thursdays with Esther Smith
and her ragtime and Pat Howarth
as leader is getting larger and
larger. The dancers report an
improvement in stiff joints and
legs feeling better. One claimed
to have felt better all over and
went home and had a wonderful
nap. This type of exercise gets
the blood circulating! which pro-
motes well-being. Try it, you will
like it. Exercise is fun to Esther's
ragtime. Esther goes on vaca-
tion soon and Johnnie Rowton
Senior Center
Newsline
will be substituting on Mondays
only for her.
Two grandchildren, aged 7 and
18, acted as volunteers at the
Center this past week. Justin
Irving, aged 7, grandson of Pat
Howarth, had Peggy Spriggs and
Jim Neill involved in a checker
game all week, ending with a
game of “Go Fish” with
Margaret Sexton. Chris Edge,
grandson of Mildred Ehlers, was
a tremendous help in getting the
commodities ready and transpor-
ting them to cars.
We are, as always, very grate-
ful to those very hard workers
who get the commodities into
bags for distribution. Our thanks
goes to: Helen Lincecum, Mar-
f' .............
shal Blister, M.L. Boone, and
Chris Edge. Thanks to Gloria
Watson, site manager, for her
excellent organization. Other ap-
preciations go to Mr. and Mrs.
O.M. Roane, fund raiser dona-
tion; Marshall Brister, new co-
ffee pot; Iona Naplava and
Johnnie Mac Lothridge, each 3
lbs. of coffee.
