EXTENDED TRAVEL

Does getting away sound good to you? Even with some uncertainty, we expect to get back to some level of normal by the new year.

“New Year, New Beginning”!
The Biloxi/New Orleans bus trip from March 2020 has been rescheduled for same time, same place next year! Everyone who was signed up to go in 2020 will have first choice to register for the March 15-20, 2021 trip. There will be some extra seats so make your travel plans now! Contact Jill for questions at 321-773-2080 or [email protected]

MORE SCAMS

Information about various scams was included in a Sept. 21st email that was sent out to members. After receiving it, a club member contacted me to share a scam she has been receiving. This phony call states it is coming from an inmate at Orange County Corrections Facility! Like other phony calls “hang up”!

These scams come in many forms. Emails, phone calls, text messages and can claim to be from the US Post Office, FedEx, UPS, Social Security Administration, FPL & more. Some want you to update your personal information, some say you have a package delivery, some want you to click on a link. THROW IT AWAY, HANG UP OR DELETE!

If ever in doubt, make a phone call to the actual business or contact your local police department and they will guide you and NEVER give any personal information over the phone.

FOOD DISTRUBTION

The Satellite Beach United Methodist Church, across from Satellite High School football field on Jackson Ave., is distributing food on Tuesdays at 10:30am. It is their plan to continue to end of the year and distribution lasts until the food is gone. There are no qualifications and you are not asked your name or any personal information. You can pick up for other families in need. All are asked to stay in your car, get in line and follow the signs posted.

SCAMS

There will be more information on this subject in your Nov/Dec newsletter, but I wanted to share with you something that happened to me after the newsletter went to print. I received my 10th “final notice” call to renew my vehicle warranty! This time I stayed on the line and listened. It did prompt me to press a certain number for more information, don’t do that, but it also gave me the option to press another number to be removed from their calling list. It may be worth staying on the line and listening before you delete the phone number or hang up.

WALKING

Surprise! We received a call from a member who very much wants to start walking back up and volunteered to open/close the DRS Gym. Thank Judy Anttilla for stepping up! Walking will begin on Tues. Oct. 20 8:00-9:00am and Wed. Oct. 21 & Thurs. Oct 22 from 8:00 to 9:30am. Note the shorter time period on Tuesday. Current COVID guidelines will be followed.
