Then and Now
Since retirement, have you noticed your memories skipping right over your years of employment…drifting back into the times before you worried about all the cares life can load upon one's shoulders? Retirement affords you time to reflect and to once again enjoy the joys life offered in “the good old days”.
Did someone say nostalgic? Looking back and remembering the past wistfully, the feeling of fun times, warm days and happiness alleviates times otherwise best left to drift into oblivion.
This month we dedicate our graphics to “Then and Now”. Let go, surrender! Hopefully our capturing of “Then and Now” photos from around Virginia Beach will help you to enjoy your memories of the good old days. And if those days happen to include the various jobs and their various locations, well...good on ya my friend, you've had a good life!

SUBJECT: Collecting Supplies for Schools Drive!
Fellow Members, as you know we donate school supplies to College Park Elementary School every school year. It would be great if we could make this a memorable year and make this the best donation ever!
Many families are struggling financially and school budgets are facing severe budget cuts. Please support the children of our city at College Park Elementary, “adopted” by the VBREA, by making this a momentous year…give at our upcoming monthly meetings so by September we will generously step forward and help our children. Feel great about ensuring the children start the school year with the tools they need to succeed. By providing school supplies, or monetary donations for the purchase of supplies, you are supporting students, teachers and our local school system.
Here is a list of suggested supplies...
· Paper: lined paper, copy paper, construction paper, spiral notebooks, composition books, and index cards
· Pencils & Pens: blue or black pens, #2 pencils, colored pencils, erasers, pencil sharpener, pencil case, colored markers, crayons, highlighters, and dry-erase markers
· General Supplies: dry-erase boards, paper clips, 3-ring 2" binders, pocket folders, and report covers
· Frequently Needed: stapler, staples, rulers, protractors, glue sticks, scissors, tape, and calculators
· Things you can never have too much of: tissues, sanitizing wipes, hand sanitizer
Please donate these much needed items! We will be delivering the supplies in September so if you give a little each month until then, you will have done something to feel proud about and the children will be grateful.
Questions? Please contact the VBREA Webmaster via email and the correspondence will be forwarded to the members handling this drive. Thanks so much!
