OCTOBER 7 LUNCHEON
Novelty Senior Citizens' met Thursday October 7 for a noon luncheon. The carry-in meal had a nice variety of foods: meats, potatoes, veggies, and salads along with the cake. No birthdays were celebrated this month.
After the pledge was recited by all, Denis gave the blessing for the food. Good visiting as well as good food was enjoyed by Denis and Dorothy Howard, David Howard, Jerry and Barbara Poor, Diana Cheatum, Judith Rhoades, Jim and Marsha Pinson, and Carolyn Morgret.
After cleanup by several of the women, Diana called the business meeting to order at 1:10 p.m. Minutes to last month's meeting were read by Marsha, 2nd by Carolyn, and passed as presented. Judith gave the treasurer's report with Denis 2nding the report and it also passed.
