PALS

Plum Area Ladies Society (PALS) will hold its monthly meeting at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 1 at Plum Community Center. William Jeffcoat will speak to the group about his organization, Life-Changing Service Dogs for Veterans.

The service project for February is two-fold. First, members will craft valentines at the meeting for residents of Ridgewood Concordia Assisted Living. Members should bring card stock, construction paper, Sharpies, scissors, glue sticks, stickers, buttons and ribbon. The second part of the service project is to host an ice cream social for the residents, where the valentines will be distributed. This will take place at Ridgewood at 1:30 p.m. Feb. 11. As always, PALS is collecting paper goods and monetary contributions for the Plum Food Pantry at the meeting.

The Ladies Day Out for March is a dinner-mystery show, “Thugs, Mugs, and a Gangster” at the Lamplighter on March 10. Call Lamplighter asap to register and pay.

PALS is a service/social club open to residents of Plum, Penn Hills, Monroeville and surrounding areas. Newcomers are welcome at the club’s monthly meetings, always held at Plum Community Center on the first Wednesday off the month, September through April.
