*****IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE BULLETIN DEADLINE*****
The bulletin deadline will be changing to the same date every month, regardless of the day of the week. This
change is necessary to accommodate the Board’s desire to have a standard mailing date for the bulletin each
month. Beginning this month, the deadline will be the 12th day of every month. The 12th is a hard
deadline. I will NOT be able to make any exceptions. Please email me at [email protected] with
any questions or concerns. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!

Bicycles Needed
The Telephone Pioneer's Recyclist Program
takes in bicycles of any size (20" bikes are especially needed), shape, and color and repairs and
renovates them. The team then uses these refurbished bikes as rewards for children by giving
them a chance to win a bike if they do well in school and
meet standards set for attendance, grades, and citizenship. The program also provides the opportunity for students to receive hands on instructions on how to maintain
their bicycles.
Help encourage children to do well in school, and to see
that there are rewards for doing well. Please donate a
bike or two. You can drop off bikes at the Club, or the
team will arrange to pick them up at your home. Contact
Jo Caffrey at 440-333-4992 for more information.
WORD HAS IT…From Your Library
by Rose Conley
New, just for the ladies; “The Lace Makers of Glenmara”
by Heather Barbieri. Kate Robinson is traveling through
Ireland, the homeland of her family. She is seeking an
elusive something in her life after a broken love affair and
the loss of her dear mother. Always in Kate’s mind is her
mother’s words, “You can always start again, all it takes is
a new thread”.
On a very rain drenched evening, Kate lands in the seaside
village of Glenmara, a long forgotten small village on the
west coast. Her first acquaintances are Bernie and Aileen,
two of the ladies of the town who make and sell lace at the
fair. The author introduces us to Bernie, recently widowed; Aileen, who has forgotten what it is like to be
young; Oona, Moira, Colleen all lace makers with their
own outlook on life. There is Sullivan Deane, who faces
his own tragedy.
The local priest, Father Byrne, watches his parish like the
old priests of years past. He is sure the Lace Makers Society, who meet more often now that Kate has arrived, is up
to something sinful.
The author has depicted real characters, real feelings in
this story. One can follow the story and the ladies easily
and feel for them, understand their strife and their loves.
