Where has
summer gone?
It
seems like just yesterday we were making plans for our spring gathering, and
now it is time for the fall one. Instead
of just one date to share, we have two:
1.
Marion Correctional Institution is again hosting a cookout for retirees,
plus a guest. The date is Thursday,
September 13, from 4-6pm at the FOP Park outside of Caledonia (5327 Harding Hwy E, Caledonia, OH 43314). They will be providing sandwich meat and “go-withs”
(hot dogs, hamburgers, buns, condiments, plates, and table service. We are responsible for bringing a covered
dish, and our own non-alcoholic beverages.
To
make sure we have enough of everything, please RSVP to Kathy Hamilton or Audrie Bender (extension #24216 or
#25187) by
September 11th if you are
able to attend.
2. We have confirmed arrangements for our
twice-yearly luncheon. Due to the
positive response received in April, we will be returning to the Ponderosa Restaurant in Marion (2227 Marion-Mt.
Gilead Road Marion, Ohio 43302). The date is Tuesday, September 25, and we will
gather at noon. As usual, we secured the use of the back room
for our gathering. No RSVP is needed, just show up.
If you know of other retirees who might enjoy getting together, invite
them too!
3. For those who have not yet heard, we are in
search of a President for our
group. Charlie Daniel recently relocated
to Florida, leaving us temporarily without a leader. The duties are reasonable and require no heavy
lifting. If you are interested, or know
someone who might be, make it known at one of the above gatherings, or by
email.
That’s
all we know for now. Take time to enjoy
the warm weather of summer!
John Mathew, Vice President
