FINALLY A MONTHLY LUNCHEON:  April 2025

 

FINALLY—a monthly luncheon for the Novelty Senior Citizens! On Thursday, April 3, 2025, we gathered for our first luncheon in 3 months. Diana, Judith, Kathryn, and Marsha, attended, as well as Rhonda the home health nurse who took blood pressures. 

All repeated the pledge, and Diana led the prayer. No birthdays this month. After clean-up, Diana opened the business meeting at 1:25 p.m.

Marsha read the minutes from the January meeting and also the blogs for February and March that told of our cancellations those months. Kathryn seconded her motion to approve. All were approved as presented.

Judith then gave the treasurer’s report for those months.  Marsha seconded Judith’s motion to approve. Motion passed. Judith also gave a report on the money earned in 2024 that she’d compiled (not including WWA): from carry-ins . usuage from FCE club. coffees: that is mostly what we can expect for this year’s income .

Business:

1. We welcomed Kathryn back from her winter in Arizona.

2. There are concerns about the tree located west of the building that is on someone else’s property. It is mostly dead and the light line goes through it Although we have had problems with limbs (and leaves is why we had put in leaf filters on the gutters), if the tree would come down, it would fall on the building. REC has been contacted to check on it and perhaps do some of the trimming on it. Then we might have to talk with the owner of the property  if we can remove the whole tree.

3. Diana had received a garden flag from a veterans’ group that says “thanks to veterans” and wanted our opinion to put it along the handicap ramp railing. She will place it sometime in May prior to Memorial Day.

4. The railing along the ramp needs some repair work as some of it has rusted out. Ronald will see if he can fix it.

Next luncheon will be May 1^st and Diana will make the birthday cake. Coffee makers each week in April will be 8—Judith; 15—Marsha; 22—Diana; 29---Kathryn.

Meeting adjourned at 2:00 p.m.
