St. Patrick’s Senior Center news
St. Patrick’s Catholic Parish volunteers are hosts
for July 28. The planned menu is taco salad, melon slices,
tortilla chips and ice cream sandwiches.
For three weeks during August. Debbie Basil will
serve as head cook while Cindy Kennedy is on leave to
serve on a mission with her daughter in Tripoli. Barbara
Carter will be assistant cook, filling in during Kennedy’s
absence.
The Senior Center’s Board of Directors met July
14, in regular session. New business included information
on the “File of Life” program. It is a follow up of the “Vial
of Life” initiated some years ago. Replacing a pill bottle
(vial) taped inside the refrigerator, holding pertinent
medical information, in case of emergency, the program
will provide a magnetic envelope, placed prominently on
the refrigerator door, or other easily seen and accessible
places. A form will be included to fill in necessary
inform ation for emergency crews to consult. It is a
cooperative program, which will be made available with
the help of fire and police departments, home health
services and sponsoring organizations or businesses. When
arrangements are complete, St. Patrick’s Senior Center will
be a distribution center for the whole community. Watch
for further announcements on this updated program.
A volunteer driver for Meals on Wheels delivery,
each Wednesday, is needed for the route in the Heppner
community. The volunteer arrives at 11 a.m. to assist with
packing the lunches for delivery. There are about 12 clients,
at present. It amounts to a 5-7-mile route. Mileage is
reimbursed at 32 cents per mile.
The new copy machine is in place. Ray Grace gave
volunteer time to set it up, ready for use.
