Spring officially arrives at 12:57 p.m. on March 20th, and it can’t come soon enough.

I am really looking forward to seeing the first daffodils; add in the bird song and it is truly a time to be appreciated. Don’t forget, though, before the start of spring comes Daylight Saving Time, which begins on March 8th. We might be losing an hour of sleep, but we do gain an hour of sunlight.

And yes, we are still accepting donations of formal wear! Please contact the Activities staff if you have any men’s suits, fancy dresses, tops or accessories that you would like to give a good home to. Also in March, we can look forward to visits from Jon Turk for our birthday party and Smitty from the City for no other reason than just because we like to party at Renaissance.
