ADVISORY COUNCIL SCOOPS Hi All....

Fall is here, and I think I have almost all my clocks set at the correct time now, except my car which usually stays an hour off for 6 months. I don't know about you, but I look forward to ole man winter and even snow. I know that sounds nuts, but....... Did you kno that if you dont push F7 on the computer keyboard when you sign in, your personal information will remain on the screen; F7 clears the screen and the machine is ready for the next person. A local Dentist has made a generous offer to 3 members of the Center who would be new patients. Dr. Borin M. Yann, Landsdowne Family Dentistry, 6428 Landsdowne Center, Alexandria, 703-550-2940, is providing a Complete Dental Exam, Adult Prophylaxis, and X-Rays for only $75.00. The first 3 members who come into the Center and want to take advantage of this opportunity ($220.00 value) will be provided a certificate for redemption at the Doctor's Office. We ask that you please return the certificate if you are unable to use it. Is there any interest out there in beginner's bridge? If so, please let the Advisory Council know. Call or leave a message at the front desk, well need your name and phone number. We'll keep in touch regarding the results. The first of the year the council will start planning game night for spring 2012, organizing our next craft fair and restructuring movie nights. Thanks to those of you who have completed and returned the survey in the Nov. newsletter. The Council will continue to review your ideas, and there will be more to come on upcoming activities. Dont forget to attend the December 3rd holiday Open House where we plan to welcome the holiday season. Its that time of year again!
