News and Notes from The Community Center

Tue, 07/17/2018 - 2:00pm

The big news this week is that, on Wednesday, Dwight and Duane Lewis will speak about the history of The Southport Bridge. The Lewis brothers, like their father before them, operated the bridge for many years and they have stories that will keep you in stitches. Please join us for this evening of fun and local history. We will begin at 6 o’clock and continue until the Lewis boys run out of steam.

The NAMI support group will meet that same evening in the Fiber Arts room.

Bingo night was a special time for all who came. The winners took their prizes from our Dumpster and all were pleased with the selection available. We will repeat Bingo Night two times in August.

Don’t forget that in July and August, the Center closes at 2 o’clock each day.

The Quilt Raffle continues until Aug. 1. Ask any volunteer for tickets.

Plan to join us on Friday evening from 6 until 9 p.m. for Dominoes and Cribbage. The food is good and so is the company.

For more information or if you need the van to pick you up and take you to walk at the Y, call 633-9876.
