Spring Council Meeting

Sandy and I wanted to let all those connected with putting on the Spring Council meeting that you did a great job! It was a wonderful meeting and we enjoyed it very much. The guest speaker, Janet Carson, was so informative, inspiring (as was Phyllis Pipkin), and natural (must go with the State Motto). The table decorations were lovely, the door prizes amazing, and the food utterly delicious and wholesome. Kudos to everyone who worked to make it a wonderful time.

Bon appetite!

If you were at Spring Council Meeting you heard about Clarice Sandberg's daughter, Cynthia Sandberg, who owns Love Apple Farms in Santa Cruz, California. She will be in the August issue of the magazine Bon Apetite, which comes out in mid July. Her website is:

SPECIAL INTEREST WORKSHOP

Rockin' Relay Remembrances

We rocked, ... we rolled, ...we laughed,... we cried. *** An inspirational story of survival stirred our hearts. *** Auction tickets danced around the room. *** Candles flickered and reminded us of loved ones. *** Money was raised to fight cancer. *** Hope filled the day.

Rockin Relay Luncheon

Here are a few pictures. More later.

How "HIP" are you?

Wilma and Glenda have prepared a quiz about 50's and 60's singers and other pop culture during that time period. We will have a chance to test our knowledge at the Rockin' Relay Luncheon and see if we are IMPRESSIVELY HIP... or just a NERD... or maybe just shameful!
