AUGUST, 2024 LUNCH & BUSINESS MEETING

Novelty Senior Citizens’ met Thursday, August 1, 2024 for their monthly luncheon and meeting (even though we had not met in July).  It was a hot, hot day!   Shortly after noon, we repeated the pledge and Kathryn blessed the food.  Happy Birthday was then sung to Kathryn as she will celebrate later this month.  (Marsha had made the cake for her)  Those present were Judith, Carolyn, Kathryn, Diana, Marsha, and Jim came in late to eat as today was also the Greenley Center Field Day. 

Kathryn had the clean-up which was appreciated.  

At 1:25, President Diana called the meeting to order.  Marsha read the minutes to the June meeting; Carolyn seconded her motion to approve.  Motion approved.   Judith then gave the treasurer's report for both July and August.  Carolyn seconded her motion to approve the reports,  motion carried.

Business items:

1.     Earlier this week, David H. had stopped by and had replaced three of the ceiling tiles that had water stains on them.  It looks nice!  Thanks, David!

2.    Judith has paid for the booth spot at CornFest.  Same price as last year, and we assume in about the same spot. 

3.    Will we continue with the wreath project?  No decision was definitely made—Marsha’s letter to the editor was passed around for those who had not yet read it.  Marsha said she will not take care of the money next year, so if we don’t find anyone to do that, we will discontinue this project.  Also Joyce has said she will not help with the location (ceremony) part after this year.  

4.    Business letters will be sent out after CornFest for donations.  Plans had been to prepare the envelopes today, but Judith said she could get started on this at home. 

Coffee makers for the upcoming month are:  August 6—Judith; 13—Diana; 20—Kathryn;  27—Marsha; Sept 3—Diana.   Judith will make a “birthday” cake, although we don’t know of any birthdays.

By consensus, we adjourned at 2:05 p.m.
