Spring and warmer weather has finally arrived in the greater Ohio Valley. We want to remind everybody that Saturday, May 7, is Join Hands Day. It's a time for all of us to join together and make a difference in our communities through volunteerism with helpful projects that connect youth and adults. Our branches are participating again this year, so if you would like to help, give me a call for more information. We want to wish a happy birthday and happy anniversary to those members with birthdays and anniversaries this month. And we wish a very happy 125th birthday to WPA this year!
