Membership is free the food is fine, and the fellowship can’t be beat. Drop in for any or all programs; here’s the agenda and menu for the first week of March.
Schedule is the same on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Doors open at 9 a.m. and close at 2 p.m. with lunch served at 11:30 a.m.
On Monday, March 2, meet in Schulenburg at Walters Park, 1111 Bohlmann

On Tuesday, March 3, join us in Weimar at First United Methodist Church. Join for morning social time with dominoes, cards, and conversation. A lunch of chicken tenders from Oakridge (Schulenburg) with mashed potatoes and gravy and our seasonal salad will be served. Members supply desserts.
