Our March meeting is tomorrow at 1:15 at the school office. After a short meeting, we have several members who will display their talents as a prelude to our State Beta Convention. After the talent show, we will divide into teams for a quiz bowl. Everyone will get to participate. If time permits we will decorate our banner for the convention. Hope to see everyone there.

Valentine's Day Blessing

I delivered the 24 Valentine packages to the Assisted Living Facility on Monday. Marty, the Activities Director at the facility expressed much gratitude. He stressed how joyful the residents would be to receive these gifts, and how rarely people do nice things for them. I told him that we would consider other service projects for them in the future. Thank you all for participating in this service project which was a blessing to these residents!
