Office
Manager’s Report
– Things are going well here at the office. I was sad to lose a
great
volunteer, Fred W., and want to thank him for all his help. I have some
new
volunteers lined up but we always need more, as I hate to close the
office when
I can't get one, but that has been necessary a few times. Thanks to
Mike P. for
putting in the air conditioner!
Please
remember to notify the office by the 15th of the preceding
month of
any birthdays or special events that you want included in the
newsletter, and
let me know of any changes. Thanks! In love and service, Lisa W.,
Office
Manager
Telephone
– We still
need a telephone chair. Gail S. and Terri B. have volunteered to
transfer the
phones on the weekends until we get one. Please announce this at your
groups,
as it is a vital part of our service.
Events: -Event chair absent (excused). She is working on
a date
for the golf tournament. She is also working on the softball tournament
and is
hoping to start looking for a speaker for the anniversary event in
August.
Newsletter: -
Thanks to
Scott W. who folded and mailed the newsletter for me this month and who
has
volunteered to be our newsletter chair. Terri made a motion and Herman 2nd
