PPSREA Membership Highlights

Hello PPSREA Members! We hope you are enjoying this Autumn Weather! PPSREA continues to express our sincere gratitude for joining and attending our events this year! During our Spring Luncheon, Charlena Martin, Lewisene Jordan and Paul Jordan became Lifetime Members. We Thank You for your support as our mission statement is to help others in need and to help one another enjoy retirement.

Our Breakfast for New Members was held on Wednesday, June 12, 2024. Everyone enjoyed the delicious breakfast and the positive thoughts that color our lives. We had an opportunity with the warm-up activity to focus on the number 4 and what it symbolizes plus how it connects with us from our past, present and future. Members revealed during our sharing activity 4 things about themselves and how they were connected to that new member. The responses were awesome with their connections! I discussed our PPSREA Committees and volunteers were needed as well as becoming a Board Member. The end of our program was the raffle of 4 Wawa Gift Cards. A Special Thank You to Board Member Dr. Cora Turpin for handling the sign-in form, giving out candy, items in the goody bag and raffle tickets!
