The May meeting of the Rehoboth Senior Citizens Club was short, productive, and endearing! Why? Well, 1. We elected our officers in record time. Our officers for 2025-26 are: Donna Howard, President; Marylin Martel, Vice President; Jane Williams, Secretary; and Clarence King, Treasurer.
Thank you so very much for electing me President of this warm and caring group for the next year!
2. We reviewed our old business and discussed the new business quickly. Then we spoke with thoughtful consideration about our members who were ill and heard wonderful news about members’ positive happenings, like high school and college graduations, and family prowess (home runs!) Then…
3. We came to the other good stuff of assembling thirty gift bags for seniors, recipients of Meals on Wheels in town. The process involved putting hand-made labels on lip balm containers, putting the AAA batteries in the 4” flashlights, tissue in the gift bags, and writing a special note for the gift. Everything was done with care, thoughtfulness, and efficiency, then delivered to the COA director, Linda Sherman, who would oversee the distribution. A project well done by all!!! (This was the first time our group has organized this project. Hopefully it will be an annual event!) Then - our delicious lunch was served!
Our next meeting will be on June 19th (Juneteenth, and the COA complex will be closed) at the home of Jane Williams, 95 Plain St., Rehoboth. Lunch will be provided. New officers will be introduced to all members, and a new fundraising project, along with beginning planning of the October 18th Annual Fall Bazaar, will be discussed.
Importantly, I remind all members that we WILL NOT MEET in July and August! Also, be ever mindful of what you would be willing to donate to the Fall Bazaar! Whether in time, baked goods, or in donated items, all will be greatly appreciated and gladly received by our members whom you may see at the COA over the summer!
So, remember, June 19th at Jane’s! Bring your calendars.
See you soon…
Donna Howard
President, RSCC
