Polson Seniors: Annual meeting coming up

The annual meeting of the Polson Senior Center, Inc. will be held Aug. 25 at 11:30 a.m. at the center. We need your input at this meeting. The annual report will be given and elections of officers and the board of directors will be held.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are continuing to flow into the Polson Senior Center. We are using everything we can get from local growers to help keep our food costs down. Fresh home-grown foods are always the best!

Volunteer drivers are needed to deliver Meals on Wheels Mondays-Fridays. Pick your day or days to deliver. Shifts start about 10:30 a.m. and finish in about an hour.
