The ASC meeting on May 10 was held at the Highland Lake Grange Hall at 10 AM. Members attending enjoyed light refreshments while socializing together before the business part of the meeting took place. The budget proposal for FY 2017-2018 was discussed, as well as plans for the Christmas in October at the Jingle Bell Fair, and a new slate of officers for the next fiscal year. Members also approved the installation of a needed heat pump at the Thrift Shop.

On Wednesday, June 14, ASC will hold its annual June luncheon at 74 Main (the Millstone), where members will enjoy a very delicious lunch. Business reports, the election of the new slate of officers, and approval of the budget will take place at this time. Plans for the Slices for Scholarships fundraiser on Tuesday, July 4 will also be on the agenda.

ASC does not meet in July and August, so the ladies can enjoy a relaxing summer and be refreshed for the next meeting in September when a full schedule of events will be in the works.

If you are a woman, young, retired, or in between, or a new resident of Andover or the surrounding community, and would like to meet new friends and have fun while helping local organizations through the fundraising effort of ASC, come to a meeting where you will be welcomed by a group of fantastic women. Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month at 10 AM in the Highland Lake Grange Hall in East Andover.

The ladies of ASC wish everyone a restful, safe, and happy summer. Take care as you travel. Everyone be safe.
