FROM THE PRESIDENT
July is gone and we are zooming into August. Hot summer days are
here. School has started. Buses are back out on the road and fall
sports are in the air which means, of course, that I am dreaming about
the cooler months ahead!!
Here at BOAA we had a big July with lots of new and exciting activities
added to the calendar. We gained some new members and held a very
timely educational social on Preventing Heat Exhaustion and
Strokes.
Our Bake and Take with Peggy is a hit and Peggy is working hard to
get food donated and canned for people to take with them when they
come to the club. We hope that the program will grow each month and
encourage everyone to join us on an upcoming 2nd and 4th Thursday. This month we are moving to the clubhouse at Bailey Park for the
event. Please see the insert in the newsletter for all of the details.
Lunch and Games (1st and 3rd Thursdays) is gaining new people each
time and we are having lots of fun laughing and learning about each
other as we play games and eat lunch together.
