A Message From Your President

September / October 2019

Hi Everyone!

With Fall being just around the corner, we have a lot going on, as you’ll see in the following pages. Just a note on a few new and a few continuing ventures, with more information in the Newsletter - Our Thrift Shop is again open on Tuesdays, we will co-host a Purse Bingo event on October 27; our Holiday Cash Raffle is coming again, we will have Billiards Lessons in the evening, and on Thursday mornings we will have Seated (Chair) Tai Chi . These are just some of the events and activities, but we have more, in the following pages.

As our Executive Board for this fiscal year is now in place, we will remain steadfast in doing our best to continue making the Center even better. We do have challenges like any other Center, but we always persevere!

We regularly hold Membership Meetings, and questions and comments are always welcome. The only thing missing is MORE MEMBERS! Since this Center is yours, please come out to meet us, hear what we have to say, and make comments and ask questions. There are great suggestions made, but I’m sure there are more out there. One recent suggestion is to have punch cards for each class where you can pay in advance, and then your card will get ‘punched’ when you come for that class. This will avoid lines at the receptionist’s desk, allowing you to get to your class faster. What a great suggestion! So come on out and tell us about any ideas and suggestions that you may have!

Also, as usual, use Copilot. If you do, you may win one of two $10 gift certificates each month to local restaurants. But you need to use Copilot to be eligible!

Lastly, I need to pass the torch for creating and editing the Newsletter beginning in January 2020. I’ve given notice a year ago, so if you are interested or know of a good candidate, please see me or Debbie as soon as possible.

- Ted Heimbach
