Hope everyone is enjoying their Memorial Day weekend with the wonderful rain and cool weather. We had a great week and cannot think of a better way to end the year. Last Wednesday we passed out 60 goody bags to senior and disabled residents with the Central Texas Housing Consortium. It was a lot fun and we made their day! On Thursday the new incoming Board and Committee Chairs met with Past Presidents who shared a wealth of knowledge and leadership to the incoming board as we learn our new roles for the year. We will be installing our new board this Tuesday so I hope you will be able to join us in person or via zoom. Please know that these meetings are judgment free meetings. Meaning, we are all at different comfort levels of socializing for many different reasons. This is perfectly okay. We will continue to respect each others social distancing and look forward to the day we can have one big group hug.
Our Meeting on Tuesday May 26th will be at noon at the City Federation Building located at 219 King Circle, Temple. Carol White will present a FISH REPORT for the 2019-2020 year and 2020-2021 Officers will be installed. It is always a joyful, heartfelt occasion so I hope you can join us in person or via zoom.
We will continue collecting Impact reports and hours for projects. I can always add your hard work into my final reports that I send to District. Thank you to all Altrusans who have chaired a project this year. Because of YOU, we as a club are successful.
With our efforts to stay safe at home remember to keep collecting tabs.
All our Tabs were turned into Ronald McDonald house in early March the collection was a total of 13 pounds which was awesome.
Changes to our tab collection efforts and criteria:
Wine screw tops are not allowed. :-( While the screw tops are soft metal the plastic rings and vinyl liner in the screw tops are not acceptable.
To use lids with tabs from soup cans and tuna cans the entire lid has to be all aluminum. If you can pick up a can lid w tab with a magnets then the lid is not all aluminum thus can't be collected.
Join District Nine Altrusans in a specially designed series of chats about wellness in the wake of the Coronavirus. As we shelter in place and prepare to face our personal and professional roles in life in a new way, we must address our personal wellness as a priority. Our ability to cope with whatever life has in store for us will be affected by our ability to react and our state of preparedness. Dr. Patricia J. Sulak (Patsy to many of us) will lead us in discussions about wellness in this age of distractions and information overload.
Join in the conversations each Monday for the next 12 weeks.
Time: 12:20 p.m. with a 30 minute discussion beginning at 12:30
