June will be a jumping

Hello one and all.. This is Ann, we are beginning to get our feet under us and have time to do things like blog.

We are expecting June to be an exciting and challenging month for the Friends Center.

Ally joined the team here in Bama in late May and hit the ground running. Interns are vital blood to many programs and we suspect it will be the same here.

Irene and Ally and I will begin our first ever "summer reading program" this starts on Tuesday June 1st and every Tuesday following when it doesn't interfere with SOUL programming. We may have many come, we may have none, we'll see. We hope to raise awareness of how wonderful books can be, and that they are located right here in our neighborhood.

Ally and Dwight have spent hours working in the computer lab, checking out the inventory of learning software and the conditions of the computers. This program also is to begin on Tuesday. 2 hours a day the lab will be open for people to come and keep their summer learning skills on track. So if you are interested, come join us from 10 to 12.00

Saturday will be our first endeavor into a community meal. (mine and Tim's) that is. Brunch will be served in celebrations of the fathers in our lives. Biscuits and Gravy and pancakes and yummy stuff will be served... Interns coming in from NC.. beware that's your first morning here.. be ready to jump from bed and be ready to serve!!

Womens Bible study begins at the lodge on Thursday at 9:00 am.

So there you go... plug in if you can we'll see you soon
