Monthly coffee hour - Tuesday, December 29th from 5-7 at The Woolley Market

Yes!  We do meet in December!  After the craziness of the holiday month we like to sit and relax and visit.  Sometimes class members from out of town are visiting family here, and they attend.  Is it you?

Usual time and place - 5ish to 7ish at The Woolley Market in downtown Sedro-Woolley.  A great place to meet and pick up a few specialty groceries for the week. 

Have you seen the decorations in downtown Sedro-Woolley?  All your favorites are there - the lights at the Sedro-Woolley welcome sign; the banners, lights, and winter branches on the light poles, and our big Christmas tree at the intersection of Metcalf and Woodworth!  Downtown has a little magic at Christmastime and you should be here to feel it!

So sparkle on down to the coffee hour and see who is there. 

Early warning:  Our January coffee hour will be Tuesday, January 26, 2016! 

Happy new year to the Class of 71 and friends!!

Annual pot luck - Tuesday, July 28th - 5:30ish to whenever!


Our July monthly get-together will be our annual pot luck at Shirley Hooper Knapp’s house in Sedro-Woolley!

Tuesday, July 28th.  5:30ish to 7ish or beyond…

Note that we’re starting a little later – 5:30 – to give Shirley some time to get home and get ready for us!

Check the e'mail sent to all class members for Shirley's address and directions to her house. 

We normally bring just whatever we feel like bringing and it always seems to make a successful meal.  We talked about “Mexican” as an idea for what to bring, but there is no plan…

Shirley says she’ll have water, soft-drinks, beer, and paper service (plates, napkins, etc.) and enough chairs.  We’ll bring food!  Salads, meats, casseroles, rolls, veggies, fruit, other desserts, and whatever you think of.  It will all work out.  THANKS to Shirley for hosting!

We always see folks at this gathering who might not be able to make it to the monthly coffee hours.  All are welcome!

So meander on out to Shirley’s on the 29th!  See you there!

Early Warning: Our August get-together will be Tuesday, August 25th at the Woolley Market  Back to our regular routine!

 
 
from 2014!

Class of 71 Monthly Coffee Hour April 28th! 5ish to 7ish.

Yep, even when I forget to post it, we still have our monthly coffee hour!  Always on the "last" Tuesday of the month. 

Now at The Woolley Market, we meet upstairs in what used to be the mezzanine when the building was a JC Penney store back in the 1960's. 

They have a nice "community table" upstairs where we can visit and laugh (!) without disturbing too many people.  Their barista downstairs does a Woolley Latte or whatever you like.  Plus, we can do some grocery shopping before we leave.

So come on and join us!  We even welcome folks from other classes.

Pretty soon it will be time to start planning our July pot luck.
