2009 HALLOWEEN : We sincerely thank the volunteers who were responsible for this year's Halloween party.  They were Joe La Rosa, who did all the planning, purchasing, and cooking;  Paul Tosi was in charge of decorations;  Tain Soreboe and Dennis Eidson helped Joe with the preparation of food.  Ginger Thaler, Anita Romaine, Colleen Eidson, and Dennis Eidson helped with decorating and ticket selling.  And Robin Varian washed all the dishes!!!  Still photos were taken by Gene Barilotti, Colleen Eidson, and Jim Ryan.  Colleen also took the video which will soon be airing on OCA TV.

Activities Clubs : On April 23, Susan Adrian conducted a computer class about the Internet.  We had a wonderful turnout.  In fact, the turnout was bigger than expected and space was tight.  Susan did a great job and many in the class established an e-mail account for themselves, and explored some of the options available on the Internet.  The Computer Center extends a personal invitation for all our class members to come to the Center during open hours and try out some of the things they learned.
