“NAME THAT SHOW” CONTEST
WINNERS:
This was a tough one. There
were some great suggestions and I’m thinking of keeping some
for different segments
of the show once it takes off. It was important to me to take suggestions
from
seniors only. We actually have a tie! The two winners will have
the opportunity to be
our first guests! So get ready for your close ups MARGE HUSE and
GERI
COSGROVE, who actually submitted the same name:“ Senior Moments”
I also have a little prize for each of you that does not involve
a camera!
To Tom, who submitted some very creative ideas, PLEASE would you
think about
working on the show with me in some capacity? I love your creative
input and think
you would be a great help.
Have you seen the patio?
We’d like to thank the Friends of the DCOA for purchasing
the new tables and chairs. Special
thanks go to Rocco Cobuzzi, Frank Cobuzzi (Rocky Woods Landscaping & Property
Services), Richard Ogiba and John Warren for taking it upon themselves
and spending a
weekend clearing all the weeds from the bricks, power washing the bricks
and leveling the
bricks!! And while they were at it, they added more stone and cleaned the
bocce court!
“ Patio Parties”
Join us for weekly “Patio Parties” Thursday evenings
from 5-7 PM (weather permitting)
