PEAK TIMES IN NATURE

Proof that it's serious business running OHGLA to result in all the fun we have.

FWSA meets the 1st Monday of the month at 6 PM. Food is available.  More information is available at the website LACOUNCIL.ORG or Contact Joan F.

T-Shirts Available -- Any Way You Want'em
Buy your own and do it yourself!   Contact Marilyn T. for order form and to obtain CD and hard copy images of four images to transfer to your shirt.  Or, contact Donna E. who has made up not only T-shirts, but also sweatshirts, and bags in various colors and styles and will sell you one outright.  All profits go to our club Treasury.

 

Volunteer Opportunities
Many of our members contribute their time, talents and efforts to help our club meet its goal of providing interesting activities in an atmosphere of congeniality.  Essentially, we are a club where many people take leadership and supporting roles, and these commitments, small and large, are also a means of interacting with others in a meaningful way.  Contact your officers, activity leaders (always need backups and ideas), and chairpersons to begin a volunteer role.  Volunteering is the best way to get to know your organization and its members.

Special request for homes for board meetings, social and art parties, general meetings, potluck dinners, etc. Contact Joanne P.  Please indicate capacity and special considerations.

Would you like to park free at choice beach parking lots??? Helen D. has spread some sunshine by informing members of a Senior Pass that is available for people over 62. Upon request you will receive a sticker for your car windshield that never expires and allows you free Monday through Friday (holidays excepted) parking at many lots from Malibu to the South Bay.  This will be sent to you with a list of lots to use if you send your request along with a photocopy of your car registration and drivers license to Beaches and Harbors, 13837 Fiji Way, Marina Del Rey, CA 90290. The direct phone number there is 310-305-9503

If you would like to help the Unrecables Ski Club (unlimited recreational activities) LA Chapter of the Disabled Sports USA, Ralph’s grocery store is paying 4% to non-profit clubs on each customer’s club card purchase. This does not reduce the customer’s club card discount and can be canceled at any time. D.B. L. is a member and Helen and Chuck D. have been working with the disabled skiers. If you would like to “give back” some of your “ski fun,” call Helen and Chuck or email D.B.L. (bendydb@earthlink.net) with your Ralph’s club card number and one of us will forward it to Ralph’s special department. Ralph’s will keep the information, name, number and address confidential and we’ll keep you informed of the needed special adaptive equipment that is purchased with the funds. Thank you so much!!! by Helen D.
