This month we honor one of our “3 Days a Week” Volunteers. Doug Corwin tends to the garden area (and the rabbits) in our traffic circle and also helps with the food distribution program. Doug is 72 years old and is an Air Force brat who was born in Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. He bucked the Air Force trend and served in the US Navy for 6 years before moving to Abilene, Texas. While working in the sheet metal business, he met his wife, Susan, who now works at nearby Patton. After moving to California he persisted in the sheet metal business, bought an existing business, and continued with that before retiring and gifting the HSC with his talents. THANKS Doug for your dedication to the HSC.

Featured Activity

Interest Lists
Time: Dailys
Cost: members
       non-members
Location:
Description: In the last few months we have had a few groups drop out. The weird part is that they were groups with lots of players. So this month we are forming interest lists to see if we can get them back again. The groups consists of Women’s Poker, Double Pinochle, and Single Pinochle. Groups that form first get first shot at days and times. An update on the Bridge interest list. We have five people signed up but there have been more people who have asked about it. If you don’t put your name on the interest lists, then your vote doesn’t count. So if you’re interested in any of these activities, please stop by the front desk and put your name on the list.
Daves Retirement Party
By: Mike Sylva
As mentioned last month, we said a fond farewell to our longtime Bookkeeper, Dave Mitchell, as he rode off into the sunset after 15 years of service to our center. Before he left we threw him a little party, just to let him know how much we would miss him. Thanks to those who shared in the potluck and showed up to give Dave a proper sendoff.
