Pck-A-News Friday! We love preparing Pack-A-News and working with volunteers who brighten our day! All went smoothly, and we were finished with that project by 11:00! Thank You Packanack volunteers! Come back again next month, and we will see and work with you again! Susan finished another puzzle! She is an amazing puzzle lady! While everyone was shredding and filling combs, Tom, Joe, and Walt were disassembling a shredder that had gotten so bound up, a main drive gear broke! They got the gear out, and are ordering another! Still it was a great day of progress and anticipation. We all knew the Zooming Thru Music Concert was coming at night, and we were getting ready. We will post all of those photos in another post! Have a great weekend!

I want to encourage everyone to consider attending this special concert this evening. Zooming Thru Music is an opportunity for young adults to be able to demonstrate their musical talents that could be obscure if they are not in the band or choir to perform their outstanding musical abilities. One of Found Abilities own clients, Anthony will be performing on the piano with song. We are exceptionally proud of his ability and talents. There will be an opportunity for a raffle along with your ticket purchase. Proceeds from this concert are used to support our program, Foundabilities. Hope to see you at Wayne Hills HS this evening!

Yesterday, May 27, 2026 we had another super day with lots happening with clients talking, laughing and working! Lucy was back after knee replacement, and glad to be with us. Crystal, David's cousin came to spend one day with us. She got to be fully imvolved with shredding. We are getting excited for Friday's Zooming Thru Music Concert at Wayne Hills. One of our own clients, Anthony, will be playing and singing as one of the performers! We know he is the best! Please make every effort to come at 6:30. The proceeds will benefit Foundabilities which will be helpful. There also will be a Tricky Tray for ticket holders. Have a pleasant day today, and we will see everyone tomorrow!

𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐘 𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐅𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐒!! We all had a great Memorial Day Celebration! First, during a light drizzle, we were brought by the Wayne Recreation Department Bus to our float. Most of us climbed on, but Sean, Matt, Jason, and Roz walked alongside, giving small flags to small children. Riders on the float were Hannah, Aileen, Luis, Andrew, Tom, Marj, Danielle, Que Qay, Dillon, Julia, Susan, and Ryan. We all had flags which we waved the entire length of the parade. Our Bubble Machine performed flawlessly throughout the whole parade, spreading bubbles of cheer that the kids thought were great! Michele and Lucy were spectators and photographers near the end of the parade. As we passed the reviewing stand, we all shouted and waved to all the dignitaries who clapped and cheered at our presence! Then, we were brought to our bus, which brought us back to Foundabilities, where we saw Joe and Daniel cooking burgers and hot dogs. We unloaded quickly, because everyone was hungry and desperate for the rest room! The ladies, Lynda, Pat, Betty, Michele, and Lucy were ready to serve the delicious Barbeque! Tom called the tables, and we all got heapping loads of delicious food! The pictures will make you drool if you are hungry! Vince, Scott, Giovanni, Jose, Iris, Marie, and Jimmy came in also to enjoy the feast. Then, as a great surprise to all of us, Mayor Chris Vergano and his wife stopped in to say hello! What a wonderful day! Everyone helped clean up, and we were able to finish by 2:30! Have a nice evening, and enjoy Tuesday. See you all on Wednesday!

What a great surprise, Susie came back after a long illness! We are so happy that she came back, found her place filling packages of combs, and fit in, like she never left! Marj worked planting more vegtables and flowers, and watered, and installed some varmint control solar powered lights and sound deflectors. Susan worked on another puzzle. Then it was time to set up for our Memorial Day Barbeque! Tablecloths, plasticware, napkins, and decorations were carefully setup by Jason. We are all excited about the parade, and our Bubble Machine. Then, a Barbeque with Cheese Burgers, Hamburgers, Hot dogs, Potato Salad, Macaroni Salad, Baked Beans, and Watermellon and desert. Hopefully the rain will give us a break to have a special day to remember those who gave all, so we could be free. We will enjoy the day, maybe even a little wet! If something changes with the weather, we will let you know!

Another hot but comfortable day today. The air conditioning keeps our workplace cool so we can enjoy our time at Foundabilities. Thankfully Dan got a hose hooked up in Franc's garden, and watering happened! We didn't have a bus today, but it worked out fine, everyone that wanted to be at Foundabilities was there! Stars students were here helping with combs and shredding. We got Tom's old computer ready to work with our embroidery machine. Rich and Ruth stopped in for a visit, and we were all glad to see them! We remember Ruth and Franc in our prayers for healing every day. They arranged or our cleaning lady to come this afternoon, so shop will be spiffy on Friday! Enjoy a cool Thursday!

Today we were so happy! Our Susie came back for a little while! There were lots of smiles and tears to see her! Come back soon please Susie! You look good! Sean, Matt, Jimmy, and Tom delivered combs, and picked up some more. Dan went out early and cut the grass. Marj was out all day working in Franc's Garden. It will be great, in spite of her efforts in the heat! Susan finished another puzzle, and showed it off to all of us. We are planning for the Memorial Day Parade, and Barbeque! It will be so much fun! Stay cool, we hope to see you all on Wednesday!

We are thankful and happy that 𝐊𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝟑𝟎 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐟𝐟, 𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐕𝐚𝐧 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐚𝐭 𝐋𝐨𝐰𝐞, 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬, 𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐝𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐳𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲. It gave us all the spark to seriously get to work together. It started with left over bagels and water, to wake us up and get us on task! Everyone was smiling and happy to learn about the Memorial Day Parade and Barbeque, Bowling on the night of June 19, and a Garage Sale on the 27th of June. Paper was shredded, and combs were packaged, as Jose and Dan kept us supplied with paper, and full shredding bags were stapled and carried out to the paper recycling dumpster. The shop was a buz of activity, as we worked, talked and laughed throughout the day. We hope everyone enjoys this warm weekend!
