Two seniors were selected for Outstanding Volunteer contributions this year, Corinne Prindle and
John Silliman.
Corinne Prindle was nominated by the Unity Hospital Auxilary. Her accomplishments include over
4000 Hours of service to Unity Hospital at the info desk, in the gift shop, Gift Shop Bookeeper, as well
as various Auxiliary Board postions. She has also served as Chair to the State Auxiliary
organization. Corinne has served as a member of the Fridley Senior Center board and Treasurer.
She has also been very active with her church, St Williams as a Befriender and member of the Parish
Council.
John Silliman was nominated by the Fridley Columbia Heights Kiwanis. He has been the site
coordinator for the AARP Tax Aide program in Fridley for 15 years. He has been a Volunteer Driver
for Anoka County for 14 years averaging 250 hours a year. John has coordinated six reunions of his
WWII Mediterranian Allied Photo Recon Wing, visits inmates in Minnesota prisons as a member of
Amicus and served on the Fridley Charter Commission.
Both have agreed to represent Fridley at the Anoka County Fair this August. I'm proud we will be so
well represented.

WHEW. . . It seems the summer is just sailing by. June was full of events with 49er Days , the Mini
Paint A-Thon, Safety Camp, the Concessions at the Ball Park and Bob's Produce. Thanks to all the
wonderful volunteers that continue to make all of these things go so smoothly!
The pace appears to be slowing down for July and August. The Heatwave could have influenced
this. However, there will still be things happening at the Center like movies, cards, the new Bridges
Golf League, the Minnetonka Boat Cruise and City Mystery Tour. . .What? Did I say the Pam was
slowing down...
I just got back from a wonderful weekend in St Cloud with fellow scrapbook enthusiasts. (For those
of you who don't know, scrapbooking and photographs are a passion of mine.) One of the keynote
speakers at the conference talked about the importance of finding your passion and living it. Too
many of us hung through life thinking we're living with zest when in fact all we are doing is rushing.
We need to relish sweet moments in time. Take moments to appreciate those things around us that
truely make our heart sing. This isn't always easy. As Peter McGugan says, we have to schedule
time for ourselves. I want to encourage each of you to capture some sweet memories over the next
few months to wane your heart this winter. . .I know I will!
The next newsletter will be out in mid-late August. Until them, have a happy and safe 4th of July.
