Dear
Cousins and Friends,
Saint
Piran’s Day is just around the corner and we will once again get
together to Celebrate the day of the Patron Saint of Cornwall.
We will meet at the First
Presbyterian Church 412 W. Pioneer,
Puyallup
,
WA
on
March 6th. In
celebration of St. Piran’s Day, we will have a special cake, balloons
and daffodils. We are hoping that people will wear yellow and black or
your PNCS shirts and sweatshirts. Of course we will also have our
excellent pot luck lunch. We
will meet at
11:00 am
for the social hour
and lunch followed by the business portion around
noon
. A presentation
will start at
1:00pm
I
will be forwarding the agenda to all members in advance of the meeting
so that we can accomplish a great deal of business and move on to an
interesting presentation.
Our
presentation will be by Audry Roley from
Eatonville
,
Washington
.
The following is what she will present:
“The Whirlwind
of Immigration". She
says … the 17th century was a time when many
groups were looking for a better life, and were willing to risk
everything. There were seven distinct groups that came to
America
before the Revolutionary War. As a
result of their presence in
America
they created a new nation, and their better qualities became our
national character.
Hope
to see you all at the meeting.
Your
Cornish Cousin and Friend, Alene Reaugh, President
