Folkfest is here again. Remember last year? We thought we had seen our last celebration. Even Positive Winston was preparing to close this chapter of his association, and then some truly positive ladies gave this man a lesson in Positive Thinking. One of the ladies from the Women Business Association met me in the Credit Union Office and she told me that the ladies were working on solution…and Folkfest was one of the best we had in years.
Our next meeting is on June 8th in the basement of the Abbeyfield building. This is your invitation to continue to strengthen this organization. Be a super active member during June. A lot of work is done at this time. The old group met for the whole month. I leave it in the hands of this younger generation. This is a personal invitation to come down and help us in any way you can.
Right now, I am working on a special project of the Lions Club. Project Pride. A number of Lions will be visiting the classrooms of the grade ones students in this valley, presenting these students with their own flag. It was President Kennedy who said: Ask not what your country can do for you, but what can you do for your country. We are trying to foster citizenship in our students.
The Lions are also holding a special Pancake breakfast for our seniors. This is one of the most important projects that we carry out each year. Give due respect to our elders. They have contributed a lot to our society and it is now our turn to do our share for them.
We are coming to the last week for our Food and Filosophy Group. We thank a number of people for making valuable contribution to our meetings. You are invited to come along and suggest other ways in which we could keep alive mentally. I had an idea of woking on the theme of Our Health. That was turned down by some members. Come along on June 1st at Hospitality Inn at 5:30, and leave this place with some excellent topics for new year.
Thanks very much.
