55+ Needs You

Bingo needs a “back up” bingo caller. Training provided & would help when current caller is unavailable. Please consider stepping up to assist. Contact Louise T. at 321/773-3160.

Also it was discussed that eventually the bingo machine will need repair or replacement. Looking ahead, the board decided to come up with future fund raisers. Monies collected would be earmarked for bingo machinery. If you are so inclined, donations will also be accepted and put towards this project.

Walking needs back help when she is unable to attend. These great programs need support! Our Programs Facilitators need a break sometimes. Please step forward! Call Claudia at 321/773-0437.

Membership is searching for assistance with entering & keeping the club data base current. Contact Louise S. 321/777-3220 or [email protected]
