S.O.S

SPRINGDALE S.O.S PROGRESS (Synergy of Springdale)
“Generations Coming Together”

After the chilling and relentless snows of January, forcing the cancellation of several of our Senior Socials, the S.O.S. Socials have resumed with a passion and are on an upstream leap toward spring.
On February 13th, Darcy Zollman’s 6th Grade Class provided radiant handmade Valentines for our Seniors. On February 20th, Miss Walker’s Mary Walker High School Home-Economics Class made, delivered and served, “from scratch” colorful veggie trays and deliciously-decadent desserts. On both occasions, the delightfully appreciative Seniors smiles, (as they realized they were being treated by their “Juniors”) were heartwarming and wonderfully exuberant for all.
In turn, several of our Seniors plan to be visiting Kyle Dodge’s High School History Class this spring to give first-hand accounts of surviving the major crises of the 20th Century.
S.O.S. (Synergy of Springdale), otherwise known as The Basic Needs Committee, sends thanks to all who have contributed and continue to help us grow. Having begun under the Horizon umbrella, S.O.S. is committed to meeting the basic needs of our community. As a reminder, our socials are held every Wednesday at The Springdale Community Church. Lunch (of which one ‘regular’ patron states is “the best food in town”) is served at 12:00-1:00 p.m. (if the food lasts that long!) with Bingo and prizes following. If you have any questions or want to join or donate to a willing team, please call Terry at 258-9190 or Margie at 258-4003.
