5K HealthWave set for October 8, 2017
Table colors and ceterpieces are provided by FBC. Each member was invited to become a "selfie correspondent" and to submit photo items to the webpage.
We continued the tradition of bringing school supplies to the first meeting of the new activity year.
Scholarship Raffle items reflect the colors of the season. Stanly's annual $1,000 scholarship is funded by the item donations of members and the $1 each raffle tiickets purchased at registration. Member memorials also help fund the scholarship.

At this meeting members registered to attend the Region 3 NCRSP every member meeting to be held in November at South Piedmont Community College in Monroe. Cost per member is $15 to be paid in advance. You must get your registration $ and name to the local Treasurer ASAP if you plan to attend.
Our scheduled speaker from AARP failed to show so members used the time to share rememberances of some of the local's recent loses. Sharing of good news and special memories is an important part of each meeting.
Reception/Registration opens at least 30 minutes before the 11:30 a.m. start time. The cost for the luncheon and materials/site expense is $12. Raffle tickets for the scholarship raffle door prizes are $1 each. Many members purchase an additional takeout meal for $8. Takeout includes a meal box, salad box and dessert box.
(l-r: Cindy Misenheimer, local president; Doris Eudy; and Claudette Burris.)
Local Treasurer Teresa Carriker needs some extra table space and elbow room. She must process dues payments, collect pre-payment/registration for the Region 3 every member meeting and, at the end of each day's meeting, settle the accounts for the venue rental, food preparation and scholarship raffle accounting.
Our new choice for the meeting venue comes complete with welcoming table decor.
The luncheon spread and dessert table are always a big hit and great bargain.
Results....Smiles and Great Fellowship
Your $1 Scholarship Raffle ticket makes you eligible for the doorprize drawings. Homemade seasonal treats are always highly prized by the winners. One additional winner gets a free luncheon at the next meeting.

"Ugly" Sweater sharing and inspection time was a hit. Well, maybe not with everyone.
Linda Williamson is known to be a 'live wire' and it serves her well when it comes to getting power to her holiday garb.

Registration begins at 11:00 a.m. so that the meeting can begin promptly at 11:30 a.m.
Stanly County Schools Executive Director of Curriculum and Instruction, Danny Poplin (left) and Jeff James, the newly hired Superintendent of Stanly County Schools (right) were the guest speakers for today's meeting.
Attendance was meager (by Stanly NCRSP standards) on this 77 degree day in February.
The donated items for the Scholarship Raffle were plentiful, varied, and seasonal.
Stanly NCRSP Charter Member Ree Phillips and the guest speakers had first go at the luncheon choices.
Chef Dwight Eudy's cakes on the dessert table are always a hit.
Members took part in voting on the state NCRSP ballot for delegates to the national NEA-R Convention. Donations were accepted for the NCAE Foundation for Public School Children. NCRSP has plans to present the Foundation with a lump sum contribution at the state NCRSP Convention in mid March. Plans were made for Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week in early May as members can begin choosing the individual schools they want to be the primary sponsor for. All members are encouraged to donate to the overall fund that will be divided among the schools based on population. SCCM, Stanly Community Christian Ministries, food pantry will be a focus for the March meeting. Members are asked to bring non-perishable food donations to the March 22nd meeting.

The survey allows our members to give feedback on the entire range of activities the local undertakes during the activity year. Responses are tallied and used to shape the program for the next activity year. If you did not submit a survey at the April meeting, please download a copy from the above link and submit your responses (anonymous is fine) ASAP to Cindy Misenheimer.
Registration guides Doris Eudy and Rosa Little have smiles for member Faye Crump. Today's registration included $12 for the luncheon, $8 each for an additional takeout lunch (which comes in four parts !!), $1 each for Scholarship Raffle tickets and our traditional last meeting "Love the Cook" basket for Dwight Eudy, our outstanding food guy.
Registration opens by 11:00 a.m. at the latest and that gives members time to share with one another before the business session.
Charter member Ree Phillips has been attending meetings since the very first one on January 26, 1984. Yep, that makes it 34 years as a member.
Member Margaret Stewart (left) is 95 years old and attends regularly with the help of that "youngster" Harriet Archer.
Stanly County Schools newest Superintendent, Dr. Jeff James, reached out and requested a few minutes at the this meeting. He gave an update on the system's financial status and solicited input from those in attendance on their perceptions of the local schools.
