Please join us for this week's meeting to hear current, exciting information about space, far beyond my simply watching rocket launches from my elementary classroom decades ago. In years since, I have often wondered how my small town could afford televisions for every classroom. It should be a fascinating presentation.
Join us May 30 at Carmel Country Club for our Spring Luncheon. Leesa Walker from Pickleball Charlotte is our speaker. Could pickeball become an Olympic sport? Sign up to find out.

Currently, our Nominating Committee needs to fill the co-chair position for Wildacres. Please visit the website Volunteer Page.
Please also be aware of a Zoom sign up modification. Senior Scholars would like to understand the actual # watching via zoom each week. When you register, enter the total # watching with you. We’ll report back the results as we evaluate this trial.
Stop by to say hello and ask any questions you may have about Senior Scholars at the Welcome Table (formerly known as the donut table) each Friday. Members of the marketing committee and the board will be there.
