Valentines For Our Senior
Citizens
Last
Monday, February 14th, the
Club sent out about 16 Rotarians, one
spouse and one Rotary friend, to ensure that seniors
in four nursing homes would have a GREAT VALENTINES
day. The group assembled at the United
Way on Bay Area Blvd at 9:00 am and then divided up 300
Roses with a Rotary tag attached to each rose (Wishing you a
Happy Valentine’s Day from your friends at Space Center
Rotary). The Nursing homes visited were The Rosemont on
Bay Area Blvd, Bay Wind off Egert Bay Blvd in League City, The
United Way Sr. Center on Bay Area Blvd, and Regency
Center in Webster Tx. A special thank you to Micki
Czarnik who donated the stickers; Pam Culpepper Cronk, who so
graciously took pictures of the Rotarians and
residents; and Steve Waldner who helped with the
arrangements.
