Our first of four yearly meetings will be Thursday, August 18, 2016 at the Lodge at Coyote Creek (former Elks Club) at 4935 Hillegas Road. We will begin our meeting promptly at 11:00 am. Come at 10:45 am to check in and pay your lunch and dues!
Please make your reservation with Mary Jo Purvis at: 492-6992 or mpurvis1@frontier.com. It would be a great help if you could contact her by Aug. 12th. If you have special dietary needs, please talk to the wait staff that day. The luncheon will be a delicious buffet with salads and rolls at our places upon arrival.
The meal cost will be $15.00 payable when you arrive. If you are a 2016 retired teacher or administrator, and you are a first time attendee, your meal is FREE. Members who bring a nonmember retiree, will get a Two-For-One deal for lunch. Let Mary Jo know when you make your reservation. Let's try to get our new retirees there!
The program for our Aug. meeting will be a presentation by Julia McIntosh, Director of the Allen County CASA program. Some of you already know what a valuable resource this program is for our young people. Our meeting will conclude with our annual Necrology Service.
