FEBRUARY 2024

Well, Mother Nature had a laugh on us! Every year the Program Committee schedules a workshop at the library the day before Valentine’s Day to make flower arrangements for a local nursing home. This year, we were warned that a snowstorm was heading our way, the first major storm of the winter. After much back-and-forth deliberation, it was decided we should postpone the meeting until the following day. The snow did come. Schools were closed, the library was closed. Our Program Chair, Mary Ann, was kind enough to host the meeting/workshop/luncheon at her home on Valentine’s Day and we all had such a wonderful time!  Mary Ann, Tina, Barbara and Betsy provided a nice lunch of tea sandwiches, fruit and cookies, which we enjoyed during the meeting that followed the workshop. Twenty-four arrangements were delivered to Momentum at South Bay Rehabilitation & Nursing in East Islip and the staff was so happy to receive them.

Great job, one and all!
