We wrapped up our 2025-26 season with a fun Card Class and Lunch Bunch in May!
Book Club will still meet the 4th Tuesday of every month at 11am at the Country Club during the summer. All other Tuesday meetings are on vacation until fall. But! We still have things to participate in this summer ☀️➡️➡️
We'll be doing BINGO during the Monona County Fair to raise money for Read to Succeed. If you see some good deals on things that would be fun prizes, start snagging them up! We really had amazing prizes last year and that makes it even more fun. BINGO is a great time for us all to catch up with each other, whether you want to play or help run the game, we look forward to seeing you at the Fair! 🎪🚜🎡
We are now part of the 🌿Garden Club. Some of the ladies will be doing Yard of the Month throughout the summer. Many of us have done various jobs to get flowers around the town! Thank you! And if anyone would like to volunteer to take a day or two to water plants in July, please let me (Lanna) know, it's very simple!
🚿To water: you only need to bring 1-2 milk jugs of water to 1 park sign. 1 or 2x.
Either Gaukel or Liberty. That's it.
If several people say they can do that 1-2x in July or August, we can get our calendar filled!📆 It is really important that the flowers get water in order to stay alive! June has been covered by volunteers in the community. Others have also volunteered to water the ball diamonds sign, the fairgrounds, and the Welcome to Onawa sign. So we just need to cover Gaukel and Liberty. Thank you to Linda Willman for being flexible and available to water Liberty Park also! 🦋🌸🌼
If at any time you see a planter downtown or at the pool that looks thirsty, could you please give it a drink and let me know. Each business owner is responsible for watering theirs, but they are also not open everyday - so it does take a village. We all know how quickly they dry out. I am hoping the planters are all full and vibrant during the Fair and Ragbrai! 😍
Another opportunity for fun and activity: water aerobics! Several of us like to attend those; they will begin as soon as the pool chemicals are ready. (Which they are expecting to be any day now.) So if you are missing friends, head to the pool and be prepared for FUN!! You don't have to be coordinated to enjoy water aerobics, trust me! 🌊🧜♂️
Aerobics schedule:
Wednesday 5-530 pm
Thursday 1030-11 am
Friday 1030-11 am
$10/class or $60 for 10 class punch card
