IRON MOUNTAIN — The Dickinson Chapter of the Michigan Association of Retired School Personnel will meet Thursday, Oct. 21, at Pine Grove Country Club. Randy Van Gasse, their legislative ambassador, will provide them with legislative updates that affect member retirement.

A social hour with coffee provided will begin at 11 a.m., followed by a noon luncheon. A cash bar will also be available. The noon luncheon will feature spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread and a house salad for $18.

A chef salad for $12 is available upon request when making reservations either online or with your caller. No alterations may be made to either selection. All selections will include a dessert. Please note that anyone who makes a reservation is expected to make arrangements to pay for and pick up their meal selection if they are unable to attend the meeting.

The calling committee began contacting members Sunday. Those who have not been contacted by noon Thursday should email MARSP at dcmarsp@gmail.com or call Pam Trask at 906-779-9157 to make a reservation. The deadline to add or cancel reservations is noon Friday.

Members are asked to bring canned goods — four of each kind — to be donated to the four food pantries they support.

This meeting is for MARSP members and their spouses, but they welcome any retiree from the Michigan public schools who is interested in joining MARSP or renewing their membership.
