FREDERICKTOWN – The Fredericktown Senior Citizens met on Nov. 10 at the Fredericktown Municipal Building on the Square at noon. Linda Shira said a prayer and then the Pledge of Allegiance to our flag. Everyone enjoyed a covered dish lunch with the meat and drinks supplied by Linda Shira and Phyllis Shira.
Treasurer Phyllis Shira called the meeting to order at 12:45 p.m. to the membership of 27 people present. President Martha Blanchard and her husband, Bernard, are still fighting COVID but hope to be to the next meeting. Vice President Ruth Douglas is starting her radiation treatments in a couple of weeks and doesn't want to be exposed to anything that could delay this process.
Secretary Margaret Ann Ruhl read the minutes of the last meeting. They were approved as read. Treasurer Phyllis Shira gave her treasurer's report, and it was approved as read.
No old business. New business was the call of any birthdays or anniversaries. Sonya Koppert had a birthday this month, and all sang "Happy Birthday." Terry and Delmas Gaddis had an anniversary, and all sang "Happy Anniversary" to them.
For the program, all talked about their favorite Thanksgiving tradition. Reminder of the last bus trip to LaComedia Dinner Theater in Springboro, which was set for Nov. 11. Margaret Ann Ruhl read a funny senior story to end the meeting.
Next meeting will be Dec. 8 at the Fredericktown Municipal Building at noon.
