Five ladies attended the March meeting of the Aberdeen Welfare Workers. It was held at the home of Karen and Bill Champ. Roll call was answered with something pertaining to St. Patrick's Day. One member told about St. Pat. Another member had made some shamrock cookies for us, which were delicious.

A couple of anniversaries were discussed.

We decided to work at the Historical Village Tea on Friday, August 12, also supplying lunch.

We donated $20 to the Kidney Foundation.
