The Unadilla Area Fund met Tuesday, May 14th, at the Library. Those present:

Glenda Willnerd, Peggy Leefers, Sue Saathoff, Corinne Zahn, Bob Brandt and

Barb Wilhelm. Details for Unadilla Day were finalized with the Village and if you're

not busy that day, we could use some help for the BBQ. Let Corinne know if you're

having a garage sale so she can put your name on the list. There will be golf carts

giving rides to the BBQ and food will again be delivered to the elderly or those

confined at home. Call the Office if you want to be on the list at 402-828-5355.

 

 

 

 

Continued get well wishes to Nina Rohlfs.
