Happy Birthday to Erna Hauf today, the 26th. There will be an open house for her from 2-4 at the Benedictine Living Center in Garrison.

Friday, September 27th is the Max Senior Citizens' potluck and meeting at 6 p.m. Next month, October, the potluck and meeting will be held at noon so people don't have to drive in the dark. But tomorrow, 27th, come at 6 p.m.

This Saturday, September 28th at 1 p.m. Ms. Lauraine Snelling will be signing books she has written. The books will be available for purchase. Come hear her talk, give a presentation and answer your questions. 1 p.m. at the Max Civic Center.

Joyce Carroll from Texas has been in the Max and Minot area for many weeks. Joyce is Ethel Hauf's niece. The two of them have enjoyed touring North Dakota!

October is around the corner, already. Let's start it off by being sure we stay healthy through the winter. Flu shots will be given at the Max Senior Center on October 11th from 1-3. Bring your Medicare card and other insurance cards with you. You will need to pay that day. They request that you get the flu shot only if you are feeling healthy and well. Do not get it if you are sick with something. It is nice that they come to us in Max so we don't have to go to Minot or Garrison to get the shot. We'd wonder what the road conditions are....it is that time of the year!

Our Saviors Lutefisk Supper is Sunday, October 13th. Watch for announcements of other fall gatherings in the area.
