UNUSED MEDICATIONS
A few times a year local take back programs are held where you can take your unused medications for disposal. If you rather not wait for those opportunities Indian Harbour Police Dept. has a secure drop off container in their lobby for this purpose? Unused pharmaceutical drugs can be disposed in this container any time.

RECYCLING AT THE DRS COMMUNITY CENTER
Recycling is back at the DRS Community Center lobby! Currently you can drop off: eyeglasses, pull tabs from cans, plastic bottle caps, used greeting cards, personal hygiene item and new and expired coupons. More will be coming soon.

SAVE THE DATE!
Saturday, Nov 6, 2021, Satellite Beach Founders Day, and Woman’s Club Marketplace at the DRS Community Center. Enjoy food vendors and over 100 craft vendors.

This year’s parade theme is “Celebrate Satellite Beach, the City Built by Volunteers” This year our parade goal is to have all participants refrain from using single use plastics and using as much recyclable materials as possible on their parade entries.

SATELLITE BEACH FARMERS MARKET
Be sure to visit the year-round market, on Thursdays from 10am-4pm at Pelican Beach Park, 1525 N Hwy A1A Satellite Beach. For vendor information, please e-mail [email protected] or call our market manager John at 321-345-8540. We are always looking to grow!

BUNCO

Bunco did meet on Sept. 10th. This date was decided “after” the newsletter was printed. Bunco will continue the second Friday of each month and will meet at Bizzarro’s. Because of rising costs, it is necessary to raise the Bunco fee to $10 per person. This fee gives you entry to play, prizes and a pizza lunch. Pretty good for ten bucks!

Barbara Hessler, who has been the chairperson for bunco has decided to step down. As you all know, Barbara chairs several activities, and it can be physically taxing. We thank Barbara for her dedication to the 55+ Club for many, many years. She will continue as chairperson for Mahjongg, Lunch Bunch and Dinner Gang. Trudy Poppiti has offered to step up as bunco chairperson. We want to thank both ladies – to Barbara for all she has done and continues to do and to Trudy for stepping up and for all she does for the club.

To help ensure the safety of our members we request that all attendees wear a mask, which covers their nose and mouth except when eating or drinking. Contact: Trudy P. 321/779-1614

EVENING CARDS & GAMES

We know you have been waiting and waiting and the good news is this activity returns Wednesday Sept. 29th, 6:00pm at the DRS kitchen area. Contact: Terry 321/773-7705.
