    The Women’s Club met on August 8, 2023 at the clubhouse with 29 in attendance. The program
was a musical journey performed by Amanda Rose. Amanda provided an entertaining variety of songs
and story telling including music from the 50’s, classic country, Broadway tunes, patriotic music and
so much more. Amanda was pleased that many audience members joined her in song as she performed
some of their favorites. A rousing trivia game of TV games show theme songs was held. The competi-
tion was fierce (and fun!) as audience members remembered many of these theme songs.

    Ms. Rose has been performing in dinner theaters, professional theater companies and has performed
in NYC with Broadway Youth Ensemble. Donations were collected and presented to Amanda, a high
school senior, as she embarks on her college journey this fall. The entertainment, refreshments and
socializing with neighbors was enjoyed by all.

Next Meeting:
   The Holiday meeting will be on Tuesday, November 7, 2023 at 1:00pm. The Women’s Club has
chosen to provide a service project along with a few other surprises on the agenda. Party refreshments,
coffee and tea will be provided, BYOB optional.

   The service project will be:

    Research into the paving process has begun with
a thorough survey of existing streets, curbing, and
storm drains. The importance of the drainage system
throughout the community was highlighted, and some
repairs and replacements will be needed before any
paving work is done to ensure proper functioning
over the long term. A preliminary quote was received,
and the Board is looking at completing the project in
phases over 3 years.

                                           So, here we are in the month of September. Hoping your summer
                                       is going well and you are taking advantage of the nicer days. Soon,
                                       Autumn will arrive, and summer will be a memory. We still have the
                                       rest of hurricane season to get through, but hopefully, we will survive
                                       any storms. Now is the time to contemplate cooler weather and consider
                                       people who are in need of warmer clothing and accessories.
                                           We are very happy to report that our containers are full of items for
                                       the people of Appalachia and in another month, we will be boxing up
                                       the items to be sent to Kentucky. The ladies are also busily crocheting
                                       and knitting soap sacks so we will be ready for the community Holiday
                                       Baskets. We start early as we need about 50 and we want to be ready.
                                             Some of you have asked about the lap blankets for Veterans. There
is still time to donate one if anyone is so inclined. Though red, white, and blue are the favorite colors, any
colors are wonderful. The size for the lap blankets is approximately 36”-38” X 38”-40”. The Veterans appreci-
ate them so much and they brighten up their days. Frank, from the VNA Hospice Unit, is our contact and we
will be inviting him to visit our group and to donate what we have. We plan a late September or early October
meet. He has always been very gracious and appreciative of everyone’s efforts to help.
   So, Happy Labor Day and may all be safe and well as we begin another fall season.
