1. Call to Order: Jim:
The meeting opened at 9:30 AM with the Pledge of Allegiance. This was
followed by puzzling (?) questions about Chicago; some of the answers
were a bit slow in coming.
2. Host/Hostess: Alice and Dennis: Donna, Magda and Edna were welcomed back.
3. Vice-President: Joan: We have 82 SCRCR members. Joan related a “non-offensive” story.
4. Secretary: Jeanne absent, Lew recorded: 38 members attended today. SCRCR minutes of May 24 were approved and accepted.
5. Treasurer: Walt:
The total in the treasury and petty cash is $1,266.65 -- small change
since last week. An investigation at Taste of Texas re catering our
Christmas Party revealed that it would cost $1,500 to reserve the room.
Paul suggested asking the Rock and Java establishment on Twin Peaks
Road, currently used for church meetings (near the Windmill area); Jim
will check it out.
6. Coordinators’ Reports:
a. Refreshments: Betty: Today: Dan, Donna and Linda. Next: Magda & Armando with Joan T.
b. Sunshine: Linda D: a.) Joan M. is back in assisted living at The Inn at The Fountains. b.) Iris is in good spirits.
c. Historian: Magda:
She and her family enjoyed a historical (hysterical?) trip to
Washington. On Memorial Day they visited the Arlington Cemetery when it
was 95o
and 100 % humidity. Magda climbed the Supreme Court stairs, saw the
effects of 9/11, and managed (as a Historian) to get a library card at
the court. She was thrilled to witness the “Rolling Thunder” of
thousands of motor bikes.
d. Philanthropy: Betty: No food went to the Food Bank this week.
e. Busybody: JoAnn: No new report.
7. Activities: Joyce G.: Please see the upcoming events in the agenda for details -- no changes; there is
a light schedule for June through August.
a) The AGAM lunch today is at
New Town, the Chinese buffet near Cracker Barrel. Some members liked
The Station lunch last week, some didn’t; 13 had signed but 20 showed
up. b.) About 20 members enjoyed the Big Band Music Session at The
Fountains, thanks Dennis.
c.) Signup sheets are out for Gaslight Theatre
performances; the count remains at 9 who have signed up for the
upcoming performance.
8. Group Concerns/Good of the Group):
a.) Jim discussed an e-mail that had been sent to all members giving details of several Life Long Care printouts sponsored by the State of Arizona, thanks Lew. He also mentioned Osher Life Long Learning
(OLLIE) which is worth the cost of $250 per year.
b.) Contact Bo if you
have any hazardous waste that you would like disposed of. Also, he is
having a garage sale on 15 & 16 June if you would like to get rid of
any unwanted but usable stuff.
c.) Bonnie had an anniversary was last
week.
d.) Mike Rebro would like someone else to take over the SCRCR

to 1994.
