Monday evening the C Hall household and their families enjoyed a front-porch social. The families brought delicious desserts. We sampled the desserts and had a good time visiting and listening to poetry about getting older.

A number of residents met before lunch Wednesday to review the local news. Pastor Roy Keller led the Bible class Wednesday afternoon. Chocolate ice cream was served after the class.

The annual volunteer tea, "Bloom where you are planted," was held Thursday afternoon in the Oscar Hett room. The Baker Country Gospel Band entertained guests and residents with lots of great music.
Bingo games called by Mariann Unruh were played by a room full of residents Friday afternoon. The winner of the blackout game was Meljo. Bananas were given to all the bingo participants.
