One <strong>of</strong> our REAC members requested a speaker on gardening for Seniors. I already have May and<br />
June taken, but I’ll do my best to see if I can juggle speakers.<br />
We had one birthday: Steve’s. There were no anniversaries. The door prize was won by Shirl and<br />
Bill, and Shirl won the 50/50 as well. If anyone wants to take the REAC photo album home to look at it,<br />
please let me know.<br />
Just a reminder: if you have a gripe or complaint about something, take it to Neil and not to other<br />
members.<br />

JOIN OUR<br />
GARDEN PARTY...<br />
We are having a<br />
planting party on Saturday,<br />
May 4, 2013, at<br />
10:00am! It’s the time <strong>of</strong><br />
year to divide the plants in<br />
your yard…...so why not<br />
bring them to the club to<br />
plant?<br />
We are looking for<br />
shade plants as well as sun<br />
lovers. If anyone has manure<br />
to spread (the fertilizer<br />
type) bring that too!<br />
We always have lots <strong>of</strong><br />
fun and tell lots <strong>of</strong> stories<br />
(you may want to bring<br />
boots) so come on down<br />
and let’s beautify our<br />
grounds for all the upcoming<br />
events this spring and<br />
summer!
