MAGNA COPPERTOWN SCOOP

Volunteer Of The Month
Congratulations Jeannine Morgan on being the volunteer of the month! Jeannine is a great volunteer team member and is always willing to help with whatever is needed. During our lunch hour, Jeannine is always in the kitchen helping prepare our lunches and serving to each one of our seniors. She always has a big smile on her face and a positive attitude towards everyone at our senior center. Jeannine also uses her volunteer time to help put together quilts (putting them up, tying them and taking them down) that we donate every year to the Ronald McDonald House for girls & boys. When the quilts are being delivered, Jeannine loves to use her time to help take them and personally deliver them with other seniors. Jeannine and her husband Steve enjoy helping set up or take down for special events like decorating tables, putting up tables and many other tasks. We would like to thank Jeannine for all she does here at the senior center and for being positive.
Thank you to our Not So Newly Wed Contestants! Lamar & Margaret Brown, Frank & Harriett Arreola, Myron & Pat Philpot! We had a great time and enjoyed getting to know you better!
