While it seems most of the 187 in attendance realize the dues must be increased, the discussion was mostly against the amount of the raise. President Rahn recognized members who wished to speak on the issue, some pro and some con, but after much discussion and talk, questions and answers, the vote was against the resolution. Another resolution will have to be made, and read at the next meeting, at which time detailed figures will also be given on the cost of operating the club during 1977. Many members felt a more reasonable increase would be more acceptable. Monday evening, Feb. 27, was the first meeting of the McHenry Senior Citizens club at their new location, the V.F.W. haU at 3002 West Route 120. President Henry Rahn had called the meeting to order at 7:30 p.m. The pledge of allegiance to the flag was recited in unison, followed by a moment of silence in reverence for member Edward Usedom who died Feb. 24. The minutes of the previous meeting were read by secretary Marjorie Conklin, and were accepted and ap proved as read. Members were reminded that Mr. Ryan, Lake county Director of R.T.A. and Mrs. Van Sells, R..T.A. director for McHenry county, will be at the Walk-In center at the Moose Lodge March 9 to explain plans for the R.T.A. in McHenry county.

Everyone is welcome to attend the 1 p.m. meeting to hear them speak, to make suggestions, or to ask questions. Due to the resignation of Frances Bonelli, Mrs. Esther Heard was appointed program chairlady, with Mrs. Bertha Quinn as the co-chairlady.

Designate March 5-11 As National Nutrition Week It's never too early and never too late to improve the quality and quantity of one's life!
