Members of the Earlville Senior Citizen Center enjoyed the holidays with a variety of celebrations, including the annual roast by Lee Chase.
Dan Noll brought his granddaughter, Heather, as his guest to SNACK on Dec. 20 at the Earlville Senior Citizen Center. We all enjoy having the younger generation as guests. It is nice to get to know our members’ families.
We had another Christmas celebration on Wednesday with plenty of homemade cookies, cakes, salads, and breads to share. Lee Chase had her yearly roast and roasted everyone!
First, she thanked the board of directors for what they have done for the seniors this past year; then, she gave everyone a gift that she had collected from the bingo table prizes. She must have worked on this all year, as everyone had a special gift!
Thank you, Lee, from all the seniors - we enjoyed your impressions of everyone.
A package was received from Dick Fletcher’s daughter, Joyce, who lives in Florida. She made Christmas ornaments for all of us! What a nice surprise – Dick is one of our members who leaves us for the warmer weather in the winter.
The board of directors would like to thank the West Brookfield Community Church for the boxes of food and goodies that they delivered to two of our members. They were greatly appreciated.
Only nine bowlers came out to bowl this week. With Christmas coming there was so much to do, and there was also some illness. Hope everyone is feeling better and will be out next week!
The bowling results were as follows: High series for the men went to Warren Cook with a 486 and to Marge Scott with a 425 for the women. There were 12 gutter ball calls – a guest bowler had the most, but one of our regulars, Frank Mazzeo, had three! The only split picked up was the 3-10 and Warren, Dan Noll, and George Dodge all got it.
Other top scores were: George 173, Warren 167, Marge 156, Jennie Dodge 139, Herb Scott 134, Dan 131, Ron Kelly 126, Frank 111, and Heather Carte 81. Heather is Dan Noll’s granddaughter who is visiting from Oklahoma.
Happy New Year everyone!
