September 2016
Another month gone by getting us closer and closer to the end of 2016. Just counting off the months till the end of time. We have holidays in September, but few are celebrated. First there is V J Day, noted since 1945, Labor Day, first Monday, Patriot Day, Sept. 11, POW/MIA Recognition Day, Sept. 16, First Day of Autumn Sept. 22 and Gold Star Mother’s Day is Sept. 25. I am not sure how many people will celebrate this day, but kids will be back in school the day after Labor Day.
The center has been busy during the summer with activities such as the usual games and cards, fund raisers, Men’s Breakfasts and now two new things to do; the Walking Club and Coloring Club, and still serving lunches twice a week, some time to sell out crowds.
Many new books have been donated to the library and for that I want to say “thank you”. I have purged the shelves, but we really are a little short of space. Drop in and see what we have. We are slowly gathering some large print books, which I hope will be returned by the people who have borrowed them so that others may enjoy them.
Thank you much. Until next time.
