March Meeting

Next Wednesday, March 2nd, will be the second meeting of 2016, and I just know that everyone is looking forward to seeing all their friends in the Southern Tier Seniors - and meeting new friends.

The March meeting at the Clermont Firehouse on Rt. 9G is FREE and open to all seniors in the area. People come from Columbia county, as well as Ulster, Dutchess, and Greene counties. It's a fun time as well as informative.

Doors open by 11AM - the meeting starts at Noon. March will be a celebration of St. Patrick's Day, so wear Green and help Jim (President of the group) decorate for the occasion. Bring your lunch, and the members will provide desserts with coffee/tea provided by the club.

JoAnn will be providing all the information about the trips that are planned for this year. Details will be available for Turning Stone Casino on April 13th, Cape Cod May 10 - 12, the Erie Canal Cruise on June 30th, and more. Be sure to sign up and plan to have fun. Personally, I'm looking forward to the Erie Canal Cruise - so sign me up JoAnn!!

February Meeting Canceled

Due to the fact that the Clermont Firehouse will not be available in February, we had to cancel the February 3rd meeting. All who attended in January are aware of this. However, if you know anyone that was not at the meeting in January, please let them know about this change.

Our March 2nd meeting will be held at the Clermont Firehouse on Rte. 9G - doors are open by 11am and the meeting begins at noon. All senior citizens are welcome to attend. We will be celebrating St.Patrick's Day. Bring your lunch - desserts will be supplied by members with last names M - R, and the club will supply the coffee/tea.  It will be a fun day, so bring a friend (no charge for guests in March.)

If you're a member and haven't paid your dues ($12 for the year), please see Betty or Connie. Hopefully, JoAnn will be all recovered and will have a listing of planned trips for 2016.

Some future events coming up: April 6th meeting will be a luncheon; May 4th will be the penny social; June 1st we'll be playing Family Feud; and July 6th will be our annual picnic/bbq.

Hope to see you all there.

2016 Has Arrived!!

Today, Wednesday, January 6, 2016 will be the first meeting of the New Year.

The Southern Tier Seniors meet once a month on the first Wednesday (unless the schools in Germantown and/or Red Hook are closed due to inclement weather) - then we would meet the next day.  So far this Winter it doesn't look like we'll have that problem!!

Our meeting place is at the Clermont Firehouse on Rt. 9G. Doors open by 11AM and the meeting begins at Noon. Members bring desserts and the club provides the coffee/tea. Bring your lunch, unless there is a special luncheon (ie: April, July (picnic), November). Dues are $12 for the year. Guests are always welcome - so bring a friend. No charge for guests unless there is a luncheon - then $5 for guests.

Each month brings a different Theme - with different activities and/or speakers. January will be celebrating the New Year and give you a last chance to wear that ugly Christmas sweater!! We also have trips throughout the year organized by JoAnn Storms. If you have any questions or want additional information, call our president, Jim Storms or JoAnn at 845-756-2960 or our membership chairperson, Betty at 845-758-5758.

Hope to see you there today - or if not, maybe February 3rd - celebrating our (USA) Presidents!!!
