We started the week out with the regular activities like coffee and doughnuts on Wednesday, where a nice crowd of people attended to hear the birthdays and anniversaries of the coming week, and to recognize those people. We mostly get to mingle over a cup of coffee and have a delicious doughnut.

On March 5, we had our egg n’ bag event. I have spoken about this before, as it comes on the calendar once a month, and any and all who attended are treated to a lovely breakfast of omelets, potatoes, biscuits and gravy, and juices. There is always good attendance at this event, and this time was no exception as they served approximately 80-plus people. Fred Sage said the blessing before the breakfast started. Jim and Judi Leitzke hosted this with helpers Clayton and Carol George, Galen and Sue Parker, Pauline Gadbois and Doris Sutfin. Our sincere thanks go out to all of them.
On March 6, there was the ice cream social that several people were anticipating for quite some time. There were approximately 90 people in the center enjoying eating their delicious bowls of ice cream. There was plenty of ice cream and several toppings, including whipped cream, strawberries, cherries, cut-up bananas, sprinkles, pineapple and several syrups, including hot fudge. It was a nice afternoon with plenty of conversation. The hosts for this outing were Joyce and Ron Bell, Chris and Rich Fulton, and Dale and Terri Satterlee. They did a great job, and thanks go out to them.
We are also getting ready for our yard, bake, and book and puzzle sale that will be at our community center on March 12. You may be able to find your treasure on this day. The sale is open to the public.
