The Pender Prime Timers Potluck Lunch will be held on Monday, Sept. 19, at noon in the Fellowship Hall. Bring a dish to share and come see what we have planned for the Fall, including a trip to the Riverside Center Theater for a matinee on Friday, November 4th, to see Driving Miss Daisy.
The Prime Timers group is made up of recently-and-not-so-recently retired folks, though anyone can join in the fun!
