Annual Meeting/ a Letter From the Board

 

Thursday, April 29th 12:30PM

 

Please come and show your support for your Senior Center. Call 637-9025 and make a reservation for lunch 24 hours in advance.  It is important for you to attend, and voice your concerns and opinions. The Board will be here to answer you questions and present the state of the center.

 

Dear FSC Members,

 

  Thank You to all of you who have renewed your Membership!  The Board and Staff are looking forward to another successful year here at the Center.  As most of you know we have closed the kitchen on Mondays and shortened the Centers daily hours in an effort to proactively deal with budget concerns.  It is our hope that this will be temporary and upon review later this Spring we will be able to resume our regular hours and meal schedule.

  A vital part of being able to accomplish this is to have a successful Annual Appeal Campaign.  Shortly you will be receiving our Appeal letter and on behalf of myself and the Board, I am asking you to please be as generous as you are able to ensure this year’s success, we are counting on you!  The Appeal letter will be sent to the Fayetteville Community as well; their response has always been very generous.  You can also assist with this Appeal by telling your neighbors and friends about the Center and encouraging them to give a gift also.

  We thank you for your continued support of the FSC.  I look forward to seeing you at the Mayor’s Dinner, March 7th, the Open House in May and other upcoming events at the Center.  If you have any questions or concerns, please call the Center, I am available to call you back or meet with you.

 

Thank you,

 

Mike Small

President Chairman of the Board
