January 2012

Happy New Year everyone!

We had a great December as we had several wonderful events.  First of all, Don and Sheryl Rider explained the wonders of NH gems.  Who would have thought that New Hampshire had such a variety of natural gems ranging from diamonds to gold to Smoky Quartz, the NH State Gemstone.

Then in mid-month we had a wonderful Christmas Party at the Crown Plaza.  The room, the food and the friendship were all outstanding.  A big round of thanks to our program director Nancy Bell for setting up this event.  Check out the photos of the “gems” and the “party” on our web site.

And as the year ended, we had elections for our 2012 officers.  The results are:

- Honi Glover as President

- Donna Wardlow as Vice President

- Bob Fiero as Secretary

- Basil Mason as new Treasurer, and many thanks to our past Treasurer, Sandy Belanger

- Nancy Bell as Program Director

- June Medeira as Social Director and

- Andy Seremeth as Editor/Photographer

With the above officers, we can look forward to another great year of events and activities.  All we need is your support and suggestions for even a better year.

General:

1.      The Hollis Seniors now have a gateway to post cancellations on WMUR TV, airing 15 and 45 minutes past the hour on Channel 9.  If the weather looks bad, check Channel 9 and the Hollis Channel 12.

2.      We have a business meeting the last Thursday of every month (except Thanksgiving).  Be sure to attend. 

3.      The SVTC bus service has gotten better.  If you have any questions, call Nashua transportation at 880-0100 Ext 1.  And you can visit the SVTC web site at www.SouheganRides.org.  And if you have not registered with the “blue bus”, please do so by calling the above number.

Future Senior Activities of interest.

1.      How about a trip to the NH State House to see and hear our State Reps at work?  (We now have one of our own as a State Representative)

2.      How about having a TV weather person come and speak to us?

3.      We are going to investigate the possibility of combining some future events with the Nashua Seniors group. 

4.      Look into upcoming classes at RISE.  Some great programs are offered.

Please let me know your comments and wishes.
