Debbie’s Notes
September Song - "Oh, it's a
long, long while From May to
December But the days grow
short When you reach
September...."
The name September comes from
the old Roman word 'septem', which means seven,
because in the Roman calendar it was the seventh month. The
Anglo-Saxons called it Gerst monath (Barley month), because it was
their time when they harvested barley to be made into their favorite
drink - barley brew. I know a few people who love, love, love that
"Barley Brew"!
"September Song" is an American pop standard composed by Kurt
Weill, with lyrics by Maxwell Anderson, introduced by Walter Huston
in the 1938 Broadway musical Knickerbocker Holiday. Bing Crosby rec-
orded the song twice, in 1943 and again in 1977 one month before his
death. Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. have also rec-
orded versions. It was used in the 1950 film September Affair, and for
the credits in the television series (1989-1994) May to December.
Our recent event, Picnic In The Park, by all accounts I received was
a raging success! This is due to the organizational skills of Carol
Cook and the cooking skills of Don Bonnema and his amazing army of
chefs! There were many other hands that helped, and I wish to thank
you all!!! Yes, it was hot but Sugar House Park provided those
wonderful, mature trees that provided ample shade. Great venue,
great food and great people... what a recipe for fun!
Coming up on September 14th at 10:00 AM is Newcomer's Annual
Breakfast In The Park. Same beautiful venue, with Carol Cook and
Don Bonnema once again working their magic. All of the details can
be found on page 2. What a great way to start your day!
Don't forget, September is the start of Football Season...
wave the RED!

FOOD AND WINE GROUPS
GOURMET
Do you enjoy exploring new recipes, eating great meals and meeting

In Gourmet-groups of people come together once a month to share a good meal.
This group usually meets on the first Saturday of the month. If the first Saturday of the month falls on a

the dinner bring a menu item and their own beverage.
This is a fun group - if you are interested in learning more, please join us on for the season kick-off on
Sept 7th. Contact Sue and Jeff for more details.
Next Gourmet meets September 7th at 6:30pm.

CONNECTIONS FOR SINGLES
OUTING WITH MARILYN AND BETTY
We are going to Hogle Zoo to see the Lego exhibit of 30 animals which include
monkeys, snakes, birds, frogs, turtles and a giant Polar Bear – as well as the live
animals. The Lego exhibit is on loan from the Philadelphia Zoo until the end of September. It took a staff of
seven sculptors, architects, a geometric painter and mixed-media specialists 1,100 hours gluing together
Legos in a shape that almost brought the giant plastic Polar Bear to life. All the Lego animals are anatomically
correct.
We hope you can join us on this fun Fall Outing! We will have lunch at the Olive Garden.
WHEN: Monday, Sept. 9th at 10:00 A.M.
CARPOOL: Shopko/Red Lobster parking lot – 1300 E. & I-80

Community Resources
Community Relations
We are very pleased that two of our Newcomers’ members were selected as Volunteers of the Year by
organizations they each support. Both women find great satisfaction and joy serving their community.
Karen Jurgens, a Newcomers’ member since 1985, was selected as Thanksgiving Point’s 2012 Volunteer of
the Year. This spring Karen was honored with Thanksgiving Point’s Heart and Hands Award for generous
volunteer services. Since 2011, Karen has logged more than 380 hours of volunteer time. Much of her
time is working with various children’s activities throughout the year. Karen is also a member of the volun-
teer advisory board as well as participates in the “Lead Volunteer” program. Recently Karen has added to
her volunteer resume the position as vice president on the board of volunteers. Karen served as a chair-
person for flight attendant support charities and for the Western Airlines Union.
Louise Lewandowski, a Newcomers’ member since 1994, was honored as 2013 volunteer of the Year by the Mt. Olympus Senior Center. Louise has volunteer at Mt Olympus for the past two and a half years working
a minimum of 6 hours a week. Louise has a passion to work with the senior population. For the past 10
years, Louise has been on the board of the Sara Daft Home, a nonprofit organization providing high quality
assisted living services. For the past 14 years Louise can be found every Sunday volunteering at the Salt Pal-
ace Visitor’s Center. Louise volunteers at Utah Heritage Foundation’s yearly Historic home tours as a tour
guide for the past 18 years.
Thank you Karen and Louise for so generously giving back to your community.
This Position is Open
A huge “thank you” to our grill chefs—Gene, Lee, Jack, Bob, Hank, Rolf, Gordon, and Tom for their great
job. The 104 degree temperature didn’t stop them from tending the grills! Our thanks to Carol Cook,
Don Bonnema and their crew of organizers and to everyone who came to the picnic.

Edison Stanford Hearing Center Invites you to test drive remarkable new digital hearing instruments. This offer is
free of charge and you are under no obli-
gation. These revolutionary digital instruments
use the latest technology to comfortably
and almost invisibly help you hear more clearly. This new technology solves the
“stopped up ears” and “head in a barrel”
sensation some people experience.
Special testing will be done to deter-mine the increased benefits of this
technology.
Benefits of hearing aids vary by type and degree of hearing loss, noise,
environment, accuracy of hearing test,
and proper fit. This is a wonderful opportunity to determine if hearing
help is available for your hearing loss
while you evaluate your performance with this technology.
If you wish to participate you will be required to have your hearing tested in our
office free of charge to determine candida-
cy. Qualified individuals will then be placed on a two week test drive period.
At the end of this period, you may pur-
chase the instruments, if you desire, at a reduced charge. Otherwise, there is no
charge whatsoever for participating in this
promotion.
Recommended by Hank & Marilyn Merrill
Call now if you wish to be included in
this test drive promotion. Test drive
dates are available until June 30.

Gertrud Carpenter is home recovering from an operation on her middle toe. You know, the
one you would show someone who cut you off and both your hands were busy. Anyway, she
had it operated on because it was frankly, not her best feature. Unfortunately, as you can tell
from the attached photograph, she had two eyeballs implanted at the end of the toe, so you
probably don’t want to sit next to her. Let’s be honest here. It’s a little creepy having a toe
looking at you when you’re trying to think of something intelligent to say. We wish you a speedy recovery
Gertrud, and please, wear socks.
