the Tennessee YELLOW DOT Program. It is designed to supply first responders with an individual’s medical information in

Got Gas? Williamson Medical Center
Date: TBA

Happy Holidays...Really? Sponsored by Rolling Hills
Wednesday, November 19 at 10:30 Let's face it. Some holiday-related stress is to be expected. Turkeys will be burned. Flights will be
canceled. How you react to it determines how the holiday will be remembered. And the pressure hits
some people harder than others. So how can you become one of those people who chuckles at adver-
sity—silly snowstorm!—instead of crying into your eggnog? Join us for a lively discussion how to
NOT have a holiday meltdown, and how to stop the implosion before it happens. Reservations re-
quired. Light refreshments provided.

The Outbreak Presented by The Raining Season

Topic: Ebola ~ What you need to know
The current outbreak in west Africa, is the largest and most complex Ebola outbreak since the Ebola virus was first discovered
in 1976. There have been more cases and deaths in this outbreak than all others combined. It has also spread between countries
starting in Guinea then spreading across land borders to Sierra Leone and Liberia, by air (1 traveller only) to Nigeria, and by
land (1 traveller) to Senegal. Tom will join us to share his personal story with us. Find out how his organization is providing a

Holiday Safety and Crime Trends Presented by the Brentwood Police Department
Monday, November 17 at 10:30 Instructor: Mark Woods, DARE/Crime Prevention Officer
With the holidays rapidly approaching, our thoughts turn to buying, giving and receiving gifts, visiting friends and family, and
sharing delightful culinary experiences. However, there are others whose thoughts are occupied with unattended electronic/
appliance-filled houses or apartments, distracted shoppers with extra cash in a purse or wallet, or the next “con job” in the
name of Christmas charity. Statistics show that crime usually increases during and after the holiday season and the reason is
very simple. More people with more cash, gifts, gift cards, etc. are “out and about” which presents more opportunities for the
criminal looking for an easy “score.” Reservations required. Limited seating.

Guest Speaker: Thomas Lee Clark, Author
Topic: Courage for Living featuring Harriet Virginia Maxwell Overton

1864. The lady of the house, Harriet Overton, the mother of five children, was thrust into total management of the 2300
acre plantation and 50 slaves, while her husband was away at war. She struggled to defend her family against the Federal
army troops on her property. She lived all of her life with southern pride.
Members free. Guests: $4. Reservations required by Monday, November 17.
Blind, Wine and Dine The Art of Blind Tasting
Thursday, November 13 at 5:00 But first things first: Why taste blind? Tasting a wine blind is one of the best ways to formulate an unbiased opinion about
the wine. Believe it or not there is an art to tasting a wine blind and then deciphering what it is. Like any query there is a set
way to solving the problem. Think of a glass of wine as a jigsaw puzzle with the label of the wine the finished product. The
sight, smell and taste of the wine are pieces of the puzzle. Each will give you clues as to the answer of your question: What
is this wine? Catering provided by Ambrosia Catering. Reservation accepted only with payment.
Cost: $24 includes tasting and dinner. Menu is at the front desk.

advantage of our beautiful setting in our own back yard. Reservations required.
So long to the lazy, hazy days of summer! As we move into Fall, it’s fun to look back at what we’ve done
these last few months and to think about what’s ahead.
Our last two potlucks have been very entertaining. Per usual, the food was delicious and well presented by
Glee Moody and her Kitchen Keepers. Tennessee sports writer’s Hall of Famer, Joe Biddle, was here in
August and gave a fantastic overview of the upcoming football season. The room was decked out in col-
lege sports team gear by the Fluffette’s so it was hard not to get into the spirit. Whether or not you agreed
with (or liked) his predictions for the season, it was great to hear what someone close to the action had to
say. Thanks to Joe for taking time out of his busy, demanding schedule to join us for lunch!
At our September potluck, we enjoyed the entertainment provided by falconer Jennifer Forcher and her
furry friends, Sadie, a red tail hawk, and Cooper, an Eastern Screech Owl. It was entertaining to witness
the exchange between these animals and us humans. Even though it might have been wasted on the
animals, the rest of us appreciated how festive and Fall-like the Fluffett’s made the room look for the
occasion. This fun afternoon could not have been possible without the wonderful sponsorship of
Claiborne Hughes Health Care Center. Thank you!
We have a group of wonderful men who help set up for these potluck as well as many other events that
take place at the center. They’ve been known to stack chairs; they’ve been known to unstack chairs.
They’ve put tables away; they’ve set tables up. Like most of our volunteers, these men don’t get enough
credit but we want to thank these Martin Men (Bill Salmon, Burke Taulien, Wayne Byrne, Richard
Landry) for all of their help!
Finally, as the days get cooler, our wonderful garden volunteers (Tom Cullen, Wray Estes, David and
Priscilla Lee, Wayne Byrne, Ryan Dankowski) find themselves approaching the planting and mulching
season. If you would like to donate a flowering bush, plant or tree in somebody’s honor (or just because),
these volunteers would be happy to help shop for the right choice and to plant it in our gardens.
If you would like more information, please ask our Volunteer Manager, Christine.
