PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

President

Judy Ingram

Time is flying. It’s hard to believe it’s February already. I think of February as a transition month with the hope that spring is just around the corner. While I enjoy the warm days in winter, the warm weather encourages the trees and flowers to think its spring and then, of course, a freeze. My great-grandfather always told me that when the mesquite tree blooms, there will not be another freeze and I still use that as a guideline.

If you haven’t joined a department yet, you still can do so. There are a variety of departments’, and you are sure to find one, or more, that will be right for you. It is an inexpensive way to have fun and enjoy being with friends. Contact one of the Department Chairs listed in your Newsletter or Directory, if you have any questions.

At the General Meeting on March 3, 2023, the Slate of Officers for the 2023-2024 year will be presented and voted on. The luncheon will be prepared by Jean Van Schaick and her Committee and, as always, a treat to enjoy. The Auditorium will be decorated by Debbie Beaudin and her Committee and, as always, is creative and beautiful.

In this issue of the Newsletter, you will find information regarding recommended changes/revisions to the By-Laws, and we will vote at the General Meeting to approve. Please take a moment to review them.

Our Garage Sale will be coming up in May, so please save your items/clothes and we will let you know when you can start bringing them to the club. March is just around the corner and I’m looking forward to seeing you again.
