RONAN — Here we are at the end of January and that means that it is time for our birthday dinner. Come in and join us this Friday, Jan. 30, for a wonderful roast beef dinner. Hopefully the band will be here once again to play live music for us.
It’s also time to think about getting our taxes done for last year. The AARP representative will be here on Fridays, beginning on Feb. 7. Give us a call (406) 676-2371 if you want to make an appointment with them. As always, this is a free service offered by AARP, but donations to your local center are always welcome and appreciated.
The card players met here on Jan. 20 with 22 people present. Marie Cowen had the high score, Jim Barnes had the low score, Phil Grant had the most pinochles and Joan Sampson won the door prize. Darlene Salomon and Rose McBurney were the hostesses. The players will meet here again, at 1 p.m., on Feb. 17.
Have you signed the mil-levy petition yet? If not, please do. This funding will help to keep the Council on Aging and the six senior centers in Lake County up and running. Just call you local center or the COA (406) 676-2367, if you want more information.

We have not had enough bingo players, but are still having painting/crafts on Wednesdays and movies on Mondays. The pool table is always ready for use and there is always a jigsaw puzzle to put together. So, come on in and join us for some great food and fellowship. You can even stay awhile and join in our activities. We also have a lending library where you can borrow or trade books.
Have a great week and be very careful on the ice.
