A summer's day luncheon

August 2, 2018 was the first Thursday, so it found the Novelty Senior Citizens' meeting for lunch and monthly meeting. This picture shows nearly everyone who was present. 

                   

 Sherry Goodwin, KCHD came for blood pressures, etc. Kathryn led the pledge and also gave the blessing for the food. Happy Birthday was then sung to Freda and Kathryn as they both celebrate birthdays this month. The cupcake cake was furnished by Marsha.

  

(sorry Kathryn & Freda--I can't stand you up!)

 Much visiting and “catching up” was done, with all welcoming Diana back from her recent surgery. She is still using a walker, and hopes to get released to drive next week.

After cleanup, Diana called the business meeting to order at 1:15. Marsha read the minutes for the June and July meetings. They were approved as presented. Judith gave the treasurer's report for both months as well. A couple of outstanding checks have not yet been deposited, so if you're holding one, please deposit it!

Business:

1. Marsha gave a report on Wreaths Across America. Thirty-three wreaths have been sent in so far. She had received checks today from three businesses and an individual for 14 more wreaths. She also passed out a financial report for the WAA account. She has been given two hand-knitted “stars and stripes” stocking caps for CornFest: how to utilize them for Cornfest was discussed with final action at September meeting. A list was passed around to sign up to work at the CornFest booth.  There will be no entry in the parade.
2. Sid Hettinger has yet to come check the door, and give opinion on the air conditioner. He has been busy working outside the county. Kathryn is taking care of this.
3. Diana will make the cake for September. Coffee makers are Aug. 7—Marsha; 14—Donna Faye; 21—Kathryn; 28—Judith; Sep. 4—Diana. Luncheon will be September 6
