Richwood Civic Center

By Susie Pfarr, Executive Director 

Our May Fellowship Dinner is scheduled for Tuesday, May 12. The Richwood Civic Center will be doing the food and Kirk Chaffin will be our entertainment for the evening. Please RSVP to Janet if you would like to come. There is a $5 charge for this dinner. Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will not be doing a Mystery trip for the month of May. The fun and mysterious trips will resume in June. In May we will begin Game Day on Tuesdays at 1 p.m. We will continue to play Euchre however; the wonderful Melisa Grose is going to be teaching us some new games. For the month of May we are going to be learning to play Rummikub. Come join the fun!
