Palm Aire Chapter
By: Teri Platek
Our 2017-2018 season is off to a good start! Members of the Palm Aire Chapter of City of Hope
volunteered at the Garage Sale held on October 1st at the Skolnick Center. Treasures of all kinds were found
by those who shopped at our tables. The proceeds from this event are the first of many we hope to send to
COH to achieve our mission- “to transform the future of health.”
Board Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of the month at 10:00 AM at the Skolnick Center. Come and
join us, meet with other members, and bring your suggestions and ideas. New thoughts and directions are
always welcome. Refreshments are served and the sociability is great!
The 2017-2018 DIRECTORY is ready for reproduction and distribution. Ann Brummer and Carole
Weinberg have done a terrific job putting it together and getting it done. The Board thanks them both and also
thanks all who have paid their membership dues and made donations to help defray the cost of publication. A
special thank you goes to those businesses and individuals who placed ads in the directory. Remember to
mention your membership in COH when you frequent their businesses or use their services.
Our paid-up Luncheon will again be held at the Isle Casino on November 8th. If you have not yet paid
your $35.00 membership dues for this season, send a check payable to City of Hope to Carole Weinberg
(Membership Chair), 3010 North Course Drive #410, Pompano Beach, FL 33069 Your dues entitle you to a
free lunch compliments of Bette and Marvin Heidenrich. We thank them for their generosity.
The annual Holiday Gift Wrapping activity at the Festival Market begins on December 9th and
continues to the 24th of December. Please call Michelle Herzmark, who chairs this major fund raising activity,
to volunteer a few hours of your time. Her phone number is 954-917-9897 and she will be happy to
accommodate your schedule to help.
OTHER DATES TO REMEMBER and mark on your calendar are listed below. Chair(s) phone numbers are listed if
