MARCH, 2021 CARRY-IN

Novelty Senior Citizens met Thursday, March 4, for the monthly carry-in.  St. Patrick’s Day decorations made the center festive.  Pledges were led by Marsha with Denis giving the prayer before we ate.  We sang Happy Birthday to Dorothy, who celebrated on the 2^nd, and David, who will celebrate on the 6^th.  Carolyn had made the birthday cake, and delivered it earlier as she had been called in to work. 

  

Present were Kathryn, Judith, Marsha, Jim, Denis, Dorothy, and David.  We do have good cooks:  apple dumplings, beef and noodles, chicken and noodles,  along with several varieties of vegetables.

As president, Diana was unable to attend, as she had another business meeting to attend.  Kathryn opened the meeting.  Marsha read the minutes to last month’s meeting, and Judith gave the treasurer’s report. 

Knowing that Diana would be gone, we had signed up for coffee makers on Tuesday prior.  Marsha will make the cake for birthday celebrants in April..not sure if we have any now though. 

Meeting was then adjourned

 

February 4, 2021 found the Novelty Senior Citizens’ open for the monthly luncheon.  Valentine decorations were in the building.  Pledge led by Diana, with Dorothy giving the blessing for the food.  Others present were David, Marsha, and Judith.  The weather was not conducive to being out, so we ate and basically left as the snow was coming down quite heavily at times. 

 

After the meal, the only business conducted was for the birthday cake-maker for March (Marsha), and coffee makers for each upcoming Tuesday.  Because the weather is supposed to continue to be in the single digits or lower the next week, it was decided to cancel this coming Tuesday’s coffee (date would be February 9).  Feb 16, Marsha will make the coffee, Feb 23—Diana; and Mar 2 Judith. 

 

Everyone left fairly quickly and made it home okay.

 

PS:  a recap of December Wreaths project—we received 360 wreaths to be placed.  We thank Joyce and family, Jim, and Lynn and Lois, and others for helping to place the wreaths.  Also Echo was here to take photos for the paper even though no ceremony.   

Hopefully in 2021.  That theme will be “Live Up to Their Legacy” and ceremony and placement of wreaths will be December 18, 2021.
