Prez Says for January, 2024

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are gone. It is time for post Xmas sales, colder weather, and maybe snow.  I hope you and your family enjoy a wonderful start for the new year.

On January 2nd at 7:00 PM at the North Bellevue Community Center and on Zoom, our General Meeting program will be "Safety Tips" presented by Lt. Lopez.  This presentation is applicable for all ages as violent crime occurs every 24.6 seconds.  You will learn why you should have a plan, what plan you should have, and the tools to carry out that plan; how to avoid becoming a financial victim; the most common human response to violent crime; and it will answer questions like which purse to carry, which purse NOT TO EVER CARRY, how men should carry wallets, and why parking lots are so dangerous.  You will know which method is the safest, and why you should always get a shopping cart and never push it through the checkout line!  This presentation should provide some thought-provoking topics for discussion. Please join us for this informative meeting.

Do you have questions about one of your computer devices or software? Join Leader Andy Peck at 6:00 PM on January 2nd for our Technology Corner, a hybrid meeting.
