Polson Seniors: Board of directors meeting on the horizon

The board of directors meeting is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. on the second Friday of each month. The meetings are open to the public. You have a voice; your opinion is welcome and respected.  

We are entering the third quarter of our fiscal year and are looking for volunteers to serve in leadership positions. Can you help us?

Thanks to those who come to lunch and help with pouring beverages, refilling beverages, and assisting those who are not so steady with their meal trays.  

Our fiscal year is now in the fourth quarter, and it is projected that we will meet and exceed our budget expectations. Thank you all for your continued support for our community center. We are fully committed to our mission to providing physical, educational and social support to our community of seniors. We rely on the government for their continued support of the needs of the elderly in our community, state and nation.
