Carol Rysavy gave a report on the library. She has many magazines, over 400 videos in the card room, and she encourages more people to use the library.
She also mentioned a government site which AAMHO encourages people to check because it helps people who are suffering financially from the pandemic.

receive a $50 gift card from the Activities Committee.
Dave read the letter which the Audit Committee wrote after they scoured the treasurer's books. Paula Barker and Jane Boudreau said he kept outstanding
records. They indicated that "this shows confidence in the membership by accepting each one's accounting." (the letter is in the secretary's book of
notes.)
A big thank you to Janie Tarpin for her Women's Safety course, also to Pat and Sandy for hand delivering ballots to the residents and to Pat for organizing
the Dutton Show. Pat also mentioned the Medical Emergency Cards which she has. If you have not completed one, please do so, and post it on your refrigerator in case you have an emergency. The medics who come will love you!
The 50/50 raffle was $89 and was won by Oneeta Stevens. The attendance raffle was $40 and was won by Richard Lewis.
We will not have a patio sale or Fun Days until we are through with the pandemic and can have outside people come into the park to purchase. We had a
sale in November and it was not very good since no one but residents could buy from each other
A motion was approved to adjourn. We adjourned at 9:40 am.
Respectfully submitted,
Connie Riter
