Once again, the
Grandparents/Grandkids Day at the UAW Park was a great
success. We had two face painters this year and
the lines of kids to be decorated with their favorite
characters was non stop. The snow cone line
never stopped either. Lily Creek Farms gave carriage
rides to adults as well as children. Lininger
Pony Rides was a big hit too and so was the bouncing
rides. The one I personally enjoyed was the
Rocking Chairmen’s Band. They were
fantastic! Chili dogs, hot dogs, chips and
brownies were served to all who were hungry.
This was made possible by all who volunteered their
precious time. This yearly event is one of the most
important days the kids look forward to. Thank
you to Carol Miller, Cindy Suffel, Sara Bennett and
Lisa Burgei for making the brownies and cookies. Even
us, the big kids, enjoyed this day.
At our upcoming meetings we will
have some important guest speakers. In September
the speaker’s topic will be about signs to look for
when someone you care about could be showing suicidal
intentions. For October’s meeting, we will have the
Trust and Health carriers here. In September if
we can get enough signatures there will be plenty of
nurses here to check your blood pressure and give
covid and flu shots free of charge.
Last of all we would like to thank
Nylice Thomas for helping with the meal tickets.
Cheryl Deitrick, Delinda Caves and Bill Thomas for the
kitchen help and Carol Miller for the vaccine signup
sheet.
Until next time, please be safe.
In solidarity,
