OUR GUEST SPEAKERS: IRENE ERICKSON and SHELLY HOLLAND
Our February Luncheon is titled, APRON MEMORIES. Shelly Holland and Irene Erickson will be our presenters. Shelly will tell us about the history of aprons and stories associated with aprons. As so often happens, it is the common object, often taken for granted, that has a truly fascinating background story.
This is a program designed to “call to” all cooks, those who love to eat, and history lovers. Shelly and Irene will display many aprons and share some truly fascinating stories. Feel free to bring an apron with it’s special story or special memory. It may be the apron that you made in 7th grade Home Economics class or one that belonged to a beloved grandmother. Even if that apron has long since disappeared, this is a wonderful opportunity to share a warm memory with friends.
FEBRUARY’S CHARITY OF THE MONTH: FRESH FOOD FOR KIDS
It is a sad and tragic fact that young children go hungry every day in our country and Sumner County is no exception. In 2021, almost 13% of households, were food-insecure (USDA). 33.8 millions Americans, including 9 million children, face hunger on a daily basis. Many others are just a step away from being food insecure.
Sumner County Schools Family Resource Center exists to provide families with the basic resources, including food, to ensure the student is ready to learn when in the classroom. Specifically, there is a Food Pantry that needs our help. Please consider supporting this worthy cause with a trip to the Giving Tree.
