FROM MY MOTHER’S KITCHEN

Hello, Friends,

I have saved from my mother's kitchen: a grater, a wooden spoon, and a rolling pin dating to the 1940s, and a few other implements. They rest in their own drawer in my kitchen. I open it now and then and remember the very skilled cook and baker, Elsie Winn, who handled these items, probably all her married life. She passed away in 1994.

Now you all know, my cooking hints are to be disregarded, but I heard one recently. Because the tip involves a wooden spoon, I expect my mom knew it. Did you? Please reply if I am the last to learn. Tip: Laying a wooden spoon across the top of a pot of boiling water can keep it from overflowing.

Now the news:

1. FWA brunch is this Saturday at 11 a.m. at the Country Club. DeAnna Buckingham is in charge.
Don't forget to bring $1 for the monthly raffle; the pot is up to $44 (would probably boil over if not for a wooden spoon on top!)
We'll have news of the latest activities, followed by Andrea Snow of OSU Extension with a hands-on demo of a jam-maker.

2. Membership Book is being worked on in April. Join now to be in the phone book. Dues are $30 for all and can be paid Saturday, no problem!

3. Coming May 15 at the Fire Department is a community meeting (attch). Meet at the station at 6:30 p.m.
Featured speaker is the Red Cross on disaster protection. Free smoke alarms will be available.

4. Coming May 23 is the Great American Cleanup. (attch) it is for all of Falconhead. Meet at the Pavilion at 9 a.m. to receive supplies and a cleanup suggestion.
Cathy Allen is in charge.

5. The rest of the attachments cover our FWA activities in April. What a month!
We served lunch at 3 high school golf tournaments, had a garage sale, supported the Spring Spruce up with mega volunteerism -- if ever our club proved its worth, April was it!
A thousand thanks to those who came forward to participate and help!
The garage sale netted $1,100 for FWA.

6. Also attached are some "keeper" stories that will be of long-term interest.
One of them is an update on the Weather Alert Team that our club has been sponsoring with supplies and encouragement.
Patti Snider is in charge.
Another tells the story of how 18 holes worth of golf cart trails came to be.
A plaque was recently put in the ground on #14 at the spot the trail system was finally completed.
The monument also cites our association and the men's golf association for 50 years of service.
Another story tells how our General Manager has personally reconstructed the FPOA office!

7. Well, we can go on and we usually do. Hope to see you Saturday at the FWA brunch! Children are always welcome.

Hello Falconhead Women's Association Members and Prospects:

Friday.

FWA volunteers will be in the Fire Station beginning at 9 a.m. Friday to set up for our big garage sale on Saturday. Feel free to bring in your donations of sale items!

Having your own garage sale at home? Register at the office by 10 a.m. Friday to get on the map of sales. The map will be at the front gate by 4 p.m. Friday.

Call me at (580) 276-7587 if questions or if you need us to pick up a item.

Saturday.

The community garage sale is 7:30 a.m. - 3 p.m. Saturday.

Beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday, the Volunteer Fire Department will hold a fish fry (by donation) and at 12 p.m. a bake sale will take place in the FD meeting room.

No Brunch Saturday.
No FWA brunch on April 11 -- We'll all be at the Garage Sale supporting the FD fish fry and bake sale!

COMING LATER IN APRIL

Saturday, April 18 -- Cathy Allen will be holding a plant swap at the pavilion at 11 a.m.

Sunday April 26 - Spring Spruce Up, 1 p.m. This is the only tournament dedicated to fundraising for course improvement (attached). Plan to play or donate as a sponsor. As our club's contribution to the tournament, we are seeking volunteers to make sandwiches and bring them to the post-play gathering at the pavilion. They were a big hit last year - the variety and quality - our volunteers are best! A sign-up sheet will be distributed Saturday.

COMING IN MAY

May 2 -- Fire Department Scramble at 9 a.m. This tournament will raise funds for the purchase of a ladder truck. Organizers hope this is the event that will put the drive over the top! More to come on this but sponsors and players can be part of something big!

Top Notch Brunch Program, Raffle Saturday

Hello Falconhead Women's Association Members and Prospects:

Green grass and daffodils are here! Let's celebrate with a brunch at 11 a.m. Saturday at the Country Club.

You and your children are cordially invited to hear the excellent repeat program by Dr. Margaret Western (attached) on "nutraceuticals" -- that's food supplements and the like.

Also, we'll be introducing the monthly cash raffle! (attached). Read the attached page to learn how it works.

Not a member? Pay your $30 dues on Saturday and become immediately eligible for this and future raffles.

Here's a picture from the training of the Weather Alert Team by the fire department on March 8 (attached).

Hear a report Saturday on the formation of the team, which will soon be equipped by our club with airhorns to sound in case of a tornado emergency as directed by the fire department.

Here's a picture of some FWA volunteers: Sharon Hall, Cathy Allen, Paula Sue Schleeter, and Shirley Clark at the junior high girls golf tournament on March 11. Along with Joann Altom, Cindy Stroope, and Rita Miller, they served a hot dog lunch to 61 golfers, their coaches, and spectators after play at the Pavilion (attached). The fans loved it! Some good golf was played. Sisters Shynia Barrett (37) and Kinsley Barrett (40) from Coleman shot the two lowest 9-hole scores.

COMING IN APRIL
