Marion senior center

This rainy weather is not only good for yards, flowers and crops, but also it brings people in to eat with us.

We spent two days dealing with government commodities. Clayton Hamm and Shirley Moore went to Council Grove to pick them up. The big truck was late and by the time our delivery got here, the unloaders were ready and everything was inside within 10 minutes.

Helpers were Vern Bowers, Charles Montgomery, Paul White, Bob Peterson, Richard Brenzikofer, Fred Puttroff and John Kline.

The next day, thing were sacked up by Virginia Downing, Norman Funk, Karen Kline and Montgomery.

Senior Center Day was May 18. The program was given by Eileen Sieger who raises orchids. She brought several varieties to display.

Join us June 1 when Gene Winkler will talk about vitamins. Our first of four make-up meals will be a cookout Saturday, June 18. We will host a sesquicentennial old-fashioned ice cream social and cake walk from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. July 2.

For more information on programs or to make a lunch reservation, call 620-382-2942 by 9 a.m. the day of the meal or stop by the center, 309 S. Third St.
