WAYS & MEANS

​

Debbie Smith and Eula Plummer hosted a WPS sponsored dance on January 11 at the Arlington Elks Lodge. I am happy to report that there has been a marked improvement in the dance attendance from previous WPS dances last year. Please continue to support our dances.
 

Directory inputs have been sent to Mastercraft Printed Products and Services. I expect to have the Directories delivered in February. Nancy Sheffer-Poole has set up a WPS sponsored dance for Wednesday, February 8, from 6:30 to 9:00 PM at the Ft Worth Elks Lodge. Come and dance to “The David Graham Band.” As a fundraising event, this dance is open to the public, as are all our dances. Food will be available for purchase from 6:00 to 7:00 PM for $8 per person. See the attached flyer for details.
 

Our WPS website, wpstc.org, has been updated to remove the login requirement, which means information is available to all members as well as to the public simply by logging onto the website. All WPS newsletters and flyers are available on the website. If you lose a copy of your newsletter, simply go to wpstc.org, select “Monthly Newsletters” under “Activities,” and all 2023 WPS newsletters will be available to you.
 

As a reminder, Donate2Impact is an organization that accepts items for resale and reimburses charitable organizations like ours. WPS has signed up with this organization, and they have given us the donation period of Jan 23, 2023, to Feb 5, 2023. Items may be dropped off at the following location: 6020 S. Cooper St. Arlington. Alternatively, you can call them at 972-619-7880 to arrange for a pickup at your home. Their hours of operation are Monday – Saturday 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Sunday 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Donations must be made during the WPS Donation period above for WPS to receive credit. When you drop off your items make sure you tell them that your organization is Widowed Persons Service of Tarrant County (WPS).
