January/February 2017
Happy New Year! As I compose this message, winter is just getting started. In Hancock, the first big storm of the season arrived at the exact time predicted in the Farmer’s Almanac. We received 18” of snow on November 20th. The next big storm predicted is a blizzard around mid-February. We’ll see! Don and I are counting the days until spring. I hope everyone made it through the holidays happy & well. Did anyone receive a Plymouth for a gift?
Thanks again to the Palmer’s, our Christmas meeting was perfect, as usual. We had a good group, great food, and a fun grab bag. The short meeting was only to catch up on business and announcements. We put off scheduling the 2017 meetings until the upcoming annual business meeting.
DUES are now due for this year unless you are already paid up. Please mail your $15 to Judi Nichols, 33 Beach St., Millbury, Mass. 01527 2017 promises to be interesting. Some of us hope 2017 is even better than 2016. Please think about hosting a meeting. Nothing really complicated., but something to do is nice, or even afternoon dessert and a meeting. Maybe you have something interesting in your garage or nearby.
The next meeting (our annual dinner and business meeting) will be Sunday Feb 26. We pushed it past the holiday weekend because of the busy restaurant. Our surprise choice this February is the Salem Cross Inn at 260 West Main St. in West Brookfield, Mass. on Route 9. 508-867-2345. Meet there at noon. Dinner served at 1pm. Please send a check to Judi Nichols for $15 each, along with your meal choice before Feb 18. Choice is: roast beef or fish. Any questions, call Bruce Nichols or Tom Dorward.
