Max News 7-29-07

Notice: The Max News will be picked up from the box in Bremer Bank in Max, on Fridays now. And all news needs to be to me by Saturday evening now. You may still e-mail me your news at emz@rtc.coop or phone me with it, if you cannot leave it in the box. And a very special thankyou to all of you who have contributed, and I hope will continue to contribute, to the Max News.

Another hot day in the Max area and temperatures to be in the 3-digit range for another day or so, even though the State Fair in Minot is over! The Fair always seems to bring hot weather, as do garage sales! Step outside on Friday and Saturday to see how the weather is by visiting the rummage sales going on at Henne's south of Max. For more information, phone 679-2256 or 661-0240.

Marlo and Margaret Zaderaka visited Karen Polsfut in St. A's Hospital in Bismarck on Saturday. Karen says to tell you she is recuperating - it will be a long recuperation - but she is expected home soon, so that is very good news. She explained how she was only a few hours away from losing her leg, with the blood being cut off by the compression fracture. Karen appreciates the many cards she has received from the Max friends and others.

Karen and Donnie's daughter, DiNell, was really surprised to hear from so many in the area and was really wondering "How did they get my address?" DiNell will be able to be home for a short time in August before going to Iraq with her unit. Joni and her boys are here now and are able to stay on to see DiNell and to help Karen.

Sing a song - a Happy Birthday song! A card shower is being held for Ethel Hauf for her 80th. birthday on August 17th. Ethel's mailing address is: P.O. Box #255; Max, N.D. 58759-0255.

A very good Senior Citizen potluck was held last Friday, with Linda and DuWayne Haynes grilling hamburgers to go with all the salads and desserts brought in. Afterwards, many stayed to play games.
