As President, I must admit that "time flies when you're having fun". The Melodiers have been rehearsing in preparation for the upcoming and fast approaching Holiday Concert scheduled for Sunday, December 3rd at 2 PM in CH2. I'm hoping that many residents have already purchased tickets to attend this joyous event. If not, one last chance remains to obtain them at CH2's lobby on the day of the show for $5.00 per ticket. Children under age 12 are admitted free. I'm hoping to see many residents, their families and friends become an integral part, as we all gather once again to celebrate the ultimate joy and spirit this Holiday season of 2023. Snacks will also be provided during intermission. Those of you wishing to donate unwrapped toys for "TOYS FOR TOTS" may do so by bringing them to CH2. Your heartfelt effort will be genuinely appreciated and I thank you as well. See you at showtime!
