  1. Coordinators’ Reports:
    • Sunshine Dorie Z.:   Gladys is doing well with her therapy at Mt. View Health Care Center.  June S. left on Friday for Boise with her son and daughter-in-law.  “Junie” you will be missed but we are happy for you to start a new chapter in your life with your family. 
Sandy is having heart surgery Friday morning and we need to put our prayers to work for a good outcome and speedy recovery for her.   We have good Sandy news – after a triple bypass and replacement of her aortic valve, she is doing well!  Please continue prayers for all.
    • Historian:  Magda Q.:    No report.
    • Philanthropy:  John Z.:   No report but please give your ideas for our “Christmas giving” to John or Mary M.  They will present these to the Board for disposition.
    • Hiking:  Jim A. and Jorge A.:  Jorge A. reminded us that hiking will begin again on November 1st.  Meet up at the far east end of the Walgreens parking lot by Point of Grace (Twin Peaks & Coachline) by 8:00 AM on Wednesday mornings.  First hike will only be two miles on flat ground.
    • Activities:     See activities list below.
  1. Group Concerns/Good of the Group
  • Val found a silver, double circle like earring in the corn salad.  Whoever lost it, Val has it – the earring, not the corn salad😊
  • Walt wants everyone to know that there will be a sign-up sheet for the Christmas party next week.  Let’s be sure to do that people.  We need to sign-up not just show-up :-)

  1. Thought of the Day:   I’ll just throw this out there – what a beautiful day it was with a whole lot of beautiful people – we are all Blessed to have each other in our lives.
