SUNNYVIEW
Here is a note from a resident:
“Sometimes we forget to thank the
people who volunteer at Sunnyview.
Maureen Hobart comes three times a
week to lead residents with exercises
in the “Great Room.” It is really a
wonderful contribution to those of us
who find it a rewarding thing to do.
Many of us have eliminated a pain
somewhere in our body from the
exercises. One morning this week
we had eleven women, which was
a record. Thank you Maureen for
your cheerful presence each week.
(She has been doing this for several
years).”
The note from the resident continues
as follows: “Rain threatened our
‘Omelet in a Bag’ meal on Friday
evening, but the sun did come
through. Weather was cool and no
bugs. Ted and Marlene organized
and prepared for the fun evening
in the Court Yard at Sunnyview.
Ted kept the grill hot and fried a
‘truckload’ of pancakes. Jon and
Vicki Fagan helped the Stacys with
the omelet cooking. There were
around 46 people attending. Erin
Maguire was a guest and provided
good help where needed. Cal Haub
came over from Sunny Knoll to eat
with Charlotte. Let’s do it again!!!”
Up-coming events include an Open
House on Sunday, June 27, 2010
from 2 to 4 p.m. Several Sunnyview
residents who live in remodeled
suites plan to have their homes open
for the tour.
That was quite a hard rain early on
Saturday morning, June 12, and we
have had several more since then.
The city park was waterlogged, and
many fields have been dotted with
ponds. Where is your favorite fishing
spot – maybe Twin Lakes, Raccoon
River, Lizard Creek, or the Des
Moines River? Chances are, your
fishing spot it is at least bank-full.
Maybe those Minnesotans are filling
up their rivers, too, and sending their
rain water our direction. Then we
all send it further south, eventually
to the Mississippi River and the Gulf
of Mexico, perhaps to help dilute the
oil spill.
Here is a vacation idea. How about
taking a boat on the Mississippi
River and making the whole trip

south to the Gulf? There would be
several locks and dams to negotiate.
Wouldn’t it be interesting to see how
those locks and dams work?
Of course we remember the floods
of 2008, especially in Cedar Rapids
and Iowa City. Some of us remember
the Iowa floods of 1993. There was
a T-shirt from that time that depicted
a pig in scuba gear. The caption
read something like “Swim Iowa’s
cornfields.” We hope that we don’t
need a shirt like that for a while!

The Calhoun County Museum
Festival Day was a Huge Success
Despite a rainy day, many people
attended the open house and festival
dayat the Calhoun County Museum
in Rockwell City on June 13th. The
food was plentiful and spritis high.
Many people that had not seen the
museum enjoyed the 18 rooms of
collections and artifacts, including
the 1800 and the 1900 rooms. A
new display in the recently enclosed
old locker psaces across form the
military room is dedicated to Dean
Hildreth, a reitred Colonel from the
U.S. air Force. The toy train room
was in operation, the bird and map
room drew many interested viewers.
The dinner was very special with

the original Palace of Sweets in
Rockwell City from the 1940’s and
1950’s using the same equipment.

apples and homemade ice cream
with a 1935 John Deere hit and miss
gasoline engine. Both ideas were
brought to life through a lot of work
by Gabe.
The first tractor show was a hit
as most of the tractors that would
start paraded past Sunny Knoll and
Sunnyview, around the Courthouse
square and on to the City Park and
down Austin street and back to the
museum.
The tug of war with a 100 foot hay
rope with people from the north side
of Hiway 20 against the people from
south of Hiway 20 was a lot of fun, it
included people from age 8 to 80.
Many people toured the Machine
Shed while watching the ice cream
freeze and the hamburgers and hot
dogs cooking. Thanks to dozens of
volunteers, it was a great event.
In her closing remarks Mrs. Reed
read “Everyone Needs Someone”.
The chapter is now in recess until
September 13. There will be a lunch
served at 6:30 by the chapter’s quilting
group and the meeting wil start
