New Members who join after Labor Day will have a membership that covers the whole next year, not just 3 months. Sue will replace the cards for those who just joined.

It was explained that Betsy could not do the catering due to her spouse’s unexpected death.
October 21 is our Taco night. Lori had previously said she would be in charge of that. RSVP to Lori Stolte by 10.11.23 if you are going to Taco night. It will be at Faith Lutheran Church at Fuller/3 mile.

2024 activities. Faith Lutheran Church will be the location of our gatherings. Please save the dates. More information will come as the dates get closer.

Chili night is scheduled for March 9, 2024. Emeline King will be our speaker that evening. She is looking forward to speaking to all of us and love chili!! It should be a great evening.
We are thinking about a few more activities to add to our calendar. Another field trip to Garage Kept might be added to the schedule as well as GloGolf or GloBowl!
Lynn checked with the Veteran’s Home to be sure they still have the enrichment fund and they do so our donation can go to that fund.
There will be a meeting with the staff at Betten Baker to discuss the next show.
The quilting ladies at Faith Lutheran Church have donated two handmade quilts for us to raffle.
