Friday Morning Message

NEXT GENERAL MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM

See you Monday, February 29 at 10:00am in the Madera Clubhouse to listen to Jed Dodds present “What’s New at the Zoo.”

It will be fun to see what critters he will have with him!

TWOQC T-Shirts

If you pre-ordered your TWOQC T-Shirt be sure to check at the T-Shirt table at Monday’s program!

Some of the shirts are in and you will be able to pick yours up. If you did not order yours yet you will be able to order one on Monday at the program! It will be fun to see a “sea of pink” at the zoo!

MARCH FIELD TRIP: Reid Park Zoo

Last chance to get a seat on the bus and join us for the Reid Park Zoo field trip! Tickets are $40 and include bus transportation, lunch and a “behind the scenes” tour! It has been suggested to wear close toed shoes or tennis shoes.

The Program Committee had the opportunity to taste menu items for the luncheon. Tables will be dressed in linen but the meal will be served buffet. Some of the selections for lunch consist of:

Caprese Salad
Both Meat and Vegetarian Lasagna
Three Cheese Ravioli with Marinara and Alfredo Sauce
Bread Sticks
Mixed Fruit Cobbler
Water, Ice Tea and Lemonade
Margaritas and Wine will be sold for $5 (Tickets for these will be sold on the bus so make sure you have correct change!)

If there are any seats left after the February 29 program they will be offered to Quail Creek guests at $45 each. You may contact Nancy Wilson with questions at nanwil60@aol.com.

The buses will depart from the Clubhouse promptly at 9:00am on Monday, March 28, and return around 4:00pm. This is one trip you will not want to miss!

Be sure to bring any loose change, dollars or checks to stuff in the “Big Baby Bottles” for the upcoming annual baby shower! “I wonder which bus will collect the most that day!” [FUN ZOO DAY]

LOST & FOUND

It has been reported that a Fashion Show attendee at Table 21 lost her broche at the event. The broche is not an expensive piece but holds sentimental value as it once belonged to her grandmother. Please contact Nancy Jacobs 970-946-3910 if you have found it.
