AUGUST 2016
Welcome to a new OSC board year!
Sue Craven --------(937) 233-3538 ---------- [email protected]
Sara Lowe ----------- (937) 878-3558 ------------- [email protected]
If you would like to learn more about what we do and how
you may become a museum volunteer, just contact Sue or
Sara. They both are long-time museum guides and would be
glad to share their knowledge.
Training and orientation are provided to all of our volunteers.
You may design your own tour, escort groups through the museum, or read to classes on school tours. New volunteers are
always welcome, and all branches of the military are accepted
as volunteers.
Also, the fourth hanger is completed and open to visitors.
If you haven’t seen the displays yet, you are in for a treat!
They all are spectacularly well designed and informative.
Come by and see!
THE WRIGHT WORD
This is a fantastic year to be an OSC member! We have many activity clubs and monthly
socials to keep you busy. We have a Photography Club, Spouses Night Out, Playgroup, Antiques Societe’, Lunch Bunch and Book Club. If
you like to get crafty, we have Happy Hour
Crafts, Brush and Palette, and our Rubber
Stamp Club. Do you like to play games? If so,
we’ve got you covered with Bunco, Bridge,
Mah Jongg and a new group that’s starting—
Euchre. If you like to sing, the Skylarks would
love to have you join them. Our monthly socials
will be fun and interesting, with lots of surprises! Our annual Casino Night will be back,
as well as our take on bingo called “Blingo.”
If you still have time after all of these activities, we would love to have you volunteer at our
Thrift Shop. The Thrift Shop is open on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9:30am to
2pm. We are on Area A on Wright Avenue, in
building 95 next to Outdoor Rec.
If you’re looking to get more involved, the
following board positions are still available: 1st
Vice President, Admin Treasurer, Parliamentarian, Child Care Coordinator, Volunteer Coordinator, and Reservations.
If you have any questions about any of these
exciting events or great volunteer opportunities,
please don’t hesitate to contact me at [email protected].

AUGUST 2016
Unless otherwise stated, all groups meet in the OSC Activities Room, Building 95 (same building as the Thrift Shop).
One OSC goal is to promote morale, goodwill, and fellowship among our membership through socials and special activities sure to appeal to a wide range of interests. However, we are always looking for new and fresh ideas; so if you
have a hobby or skill that others might like to try as well, make a suggestion to the Activities Chair (from list on page 2).

The book we are
reading for September

is about a blind French
girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to
survive the devastation of World War II.
Come join us at Barnes and Noble for
a discussion of this book. Our group
meets the third Thursday of each month
from 10:00 am to Noon. We look forward seeing all of the regular members
and meeting our new members on September 15th!

Meets: Every Tuesday
Time: 9:30 am- 12:30 (or until 2:30ish)
We’re starting a new club for those
interested in learning to play euchre, a
trick-taking card game played with four
people in two partnerships at each table. It’s more complicated than Bunco,
but less complicated than bridge. The
game is played throughout the country
but its strongest following is in the
Midwest. So as long as you’re stationed at Wright-Patt, why not learn to
play?
We’re considering meeting on evenings or weekends and including
spouses, but we’ll go with when the
most people are available. Please contact Lori or find her at the Activities &
Welcome Coffee to sign up!
Mah Jongg is a Chinese game of
skill, strategy and calculation. Similar
to Rummy but uses tiles rather than
cards. The main objective is to build
sets through drawing and discarding
tiles. Come by and try it once!

Our first creative get-together is
Friday, Sept. 9 in the OSC Activities
Room. We will make 2-4 different

All levels of stampers are welcome,

I know that Sept 9 is a long time

inky before then! For your stamping
enjoyment, I have personally arranged
(haha!) for one of the best stamp conventions in the country to be held a
mere stone’s throw (that’s about an
hour) from the base! Please consider

folklore, and cuisine from
many of our members.
The International
spouses Group has been

celebrate Yuko's friendship
and "See you Alligator" farewell theme. Children were
delighted to participate.
 July 1st: We gathered to
celebrate Independence Day.
