A Message
From The Director


Greetings!

The month of November is here and that means it is time for our annual Craft, Soup,
and Bake Sale. The event will happen on Saturday November 8th from 9:30am-
3:00pm. I certainly hope that youll be able to come and enjoy the event. Our craft
ladies work so hard all year making things for the sale, so come and show them your
support. If you have a craft item or a baked item to donate for the sale, be sure to call
the HSC office and let us know what youll be bringing! Also, I want to take a moment
to thank the Hillyard Lions Club and the many hard working volunteers that helped
make the Pancake Breakfast a huge success! Our Event raised over $900 for our
efforts! Great job! Also, If you like to overnight travel, we will be hosting a Travel
Breakfast on Mon. Nov. 24th at 9AM. We are looking for ideas on destinations for
our 2015 overnight tours. Call the HSC office and reserve a spot for breakfast, and dont
forget your trip ideas! In addition... Dont miss our Western Theme Birthday Party and
Board Elections being held this month on Wednesday, November 19th. Come support
your favorite candidates and kick up your heels at the western party! P.S. were still in
need of more Canasta Players. Beginners are welcome and will be taught the game!

Have a Great Month of November!
