Hello to all our/fiends. Winter has just begun and we are
already tired of it. Guess we'll have to undergo an attitude
adjustment period. Here we are wishing it was spring. No such
luck for awhile. But all in all, many of our Seniors are beginning
to shake the colds and flu virus and are able to return to the center.
Our meal count has dropped a bit but that's understandable.
Even our roads have been slick and icy and driving has been a
challenge. Sometime it's better to stay home than to drive under
such conditions.

Hello from the Pahrump Senior Center.
Thanks goes out to Elnora and Lee White, who donate so
much to the members of the Pahrump Senior Center, and our
home Ixmnds. Thank you both so much. Also everyone at the
senior center want to wish Elnora a very happy birthday Friday.
Thanks goes also to Domino's and Scott Smith, the manger,
who donated pizza so that we could have a pizza bingo day.
We are very busy planning our February activities. I cannot
believe that Valentines Day is almost upon us.
Next month I will have been here a year. It' s been a very fast
year and very interesting. The best of all is the wonderful people
I have met, and the friends I have made.
Not only does Pahrump have some very friendly people, the
country is so beautiful, and the weather almost perfect.
Happy birthday to all our February birthdays and congratula-
tions to everyone celebrating an anniversary in February.

I forgot some of the very important people when it comes tot
hanks for the Super Senior Saturday, all the folks that supported
us, for having dinner, buying cakes and bidding on the faces to
throw pies at. Thank you to John Young for his donation of$10.
Also a special thank you to Rick Casey for all the table and chair
work, they're getting to be a bit much for me.
During and after the question was brought up, "Why do we
need to have fund raisers" it gets more complicated than just that
simple question and there will be a notice put out to explain this
more completely. The center is not completely supported by Nye
County, and with the budget cuts of the last two .(2) years it has
hurt us financially. We provide all the fixing for the salad bar, as
well as purchasing matt of the paperproducts that the center uses.
It was necessary approximately 3 months ago, or more to cut off
the cleaning of the center, as a paid position, in order to help save
money. This was then done by a volunteer worker. This is also
an expense of the council. Any improvements that are not
considered capitol projects are also funded by the Senior Coun-
cil. PE'I'T money, if any is left, is for capitol projects only.
This is the main reason for fund raisers. It may be necessary
for us to spend additional funds to keep the center running in the
manner that we wish. Anyone, and all, are invited to attend the
Council meeting to help with input on making these decisions
that affect all of us. Join us at the next council meeting.
Minutes of the council meetings will be available in the future
for your review.
