ACTIVITIES MESSAGE
December 2021
WAYS & MEANS
Debbie Smith and Eula Plummer hosted a WPS sponsored dance on Nov 10 at the Arlington Elks Lodge. Fifty-fifty door prizes were presented, and everyone had a fun time. There will not be a WPS dance in the month of December due to the Holidays.
For those that made reservations, do not forget to attend the Holly Berry Christmas Banquet on Dec 5 at 1:30 PM (seating begins at 1:15 PM) at the Mira Vista Country Club, 6600 Mira Vista Blvd, Fort Worth. VALET PARKING will be available.
Please try to submit your WPS directory inputs, both personal and advertisements by the first week in December. It is important that your name be in the WPS directory. This directory is a wonderful way to stay connected or reconnect to your WPS friends, many of which you have not seen for several months. The directory is also a fundraiser to support our WPS expenses. Two WPS directory input sheet flyers, one for personal and one for advertisements, are included in this newsletter.
If you buy something from Amazon, make sure you are logging into www.smile.amazon.com and “Supporting Tarrant County Widowed Persons Service, Inc” is displayed. If not, refer to Donation Options on page 3, step 5.
Remember that each time you purchase items from Kroger or Tom Thumb you must enter your alternate ID (your phone number) for WPS to get a donation.
Check your Kroger receipt to verify that Tarrant County Widowed Person Services” appears at the bottom of the receipt. If it does not, you need to re-enroll. Refer to Donation
Options on page 3, step 3.
If you have never applied to Tom Thumb Good Neighbor Program, refer to Donation Options on page 3, step 4.
Do not forget to wear your WPS badges at all WPS sponsored events. Contact the office if you need a badge. With more than nine hundred active members, it is difficult to remember
all names.
