As 2020 creeps closer to a close, we can all reflect on what an extraordinary year of sadness and difficulties it has indeed brought for many. But, as a group we have weathered this storm with tremendous grace and dignity to push through the tough times by giving of ourselves to help those in need. From our work with the Foodbank, to our help packaging and delivering food through the 93013 Fund, and there is the work we did cleaning up Tomol Park, and off course our fundraising for Polio, and our final big fundraiser, helping our local Carpinteria businesses, Carp Aid Diem. I am proud of each and every one of you.
I so truly miss seeing everyone for warm Wednesday greetings and hugs. I have found that this year the need to be thankful for every single day we have and finding all the little moment to moment blessings in our everyday life is truly what Thanksgiving Day is all about to me. I am so thankful for every day I find myself still here able to smile and to laugh. The big traditional family turkey meal is delightful to share but the reality is that it’s about who is there than what is there in the times we can’t all be physically together.
For me it helps to reflect on the joy of times past and the planning for new times to share. So in that thought! We are planning a Zoom Holiday party with a sweet surprise delivered to your door. It will be on the Friday, December 18th at 7PM I hope you can wait to open your gift from the club until the zoom meeting so we can share the joy.
Sincerely,
Karen Glancy
