Briggs Retiree Club

It’s now time for me to write my first letter of 2003!

We had our January bingo and meeting with many members attending. All of you retirees come and join our club. Meet some of your old friends and make new ones! Dues are $24.00 per year or you may pay $12.00 for six months - from January to June and July to December. Call our Financial Secretary, Erma Gorecki for more information at 781-8951. You may also join by coming to the Bowlero, located at 117th and Burleigh, any 2nd Wednesday of the month for our Bingo or 3rd Wednesday for our monthly meeting. The doors will open at 11:00 a.m. and the activities start at 12:00 noon. Prizes are given out at Bingo. All is free and there is fun for everyone! Also at the Bowlero, we have bowling on Thursdays at 1:00 p.m. and on Tuesdays at 1:00 p.m. we play cards.

Our sympathy goes out to the families of three of our members who have passed away; Josephine Smokovich, Margaret Barnes, and Richard Tillman. Also we send our get well wishes out to Marian Baum, Fred and Katherine Holtz, Tom Liederbach, Antoinette Kuzniewski, Virginia Klamik and Walter Slowikowski.

I am sorry to have to report to you there will be no more 7232 Reporter newspaper sent to members or retirees homes. We will discuss information and progress of the Local 7232 paper at our club meetings. Delores Higgins, our Vice-President promises to let us know more at the February meeting. She’ll let us know exactly how and where to get our monthly news Reporter.

Please attend our coming events- they will be important. Till next time, keep warm, take care and God bless.

Frances P. Capello

Corresponding Secretary
