Annual MCRTA Picnic!
We hope you will consider attending our Annual MCRTA Picnic!
Thursday, June 6th
11:30am - 1:00pm
Karst Farm Park
Shelter House #3
A meat, cheese, & bread tray will be provided along with bottled water. If you would like to bring a salad, side dish, chips, or dessert to share, that would be great, but it is not required (we had way too much food last year....and too many delicious lemon bars!).
Mike Horvath will be present to collect our annual $5 chapter dues.
We have 4 IRTA 2024 Award Winners (Marty Humes, Ginny Coppedge, Sue Cull, Linda Forshee, and Jim Coppedge) who will be our special guests of honor, along with newly retired teachers.
Hope you can attend, and please contact me if you have any questions.

MCRTA MEMBERS,
We wanted to write and tell you about the amazing tour we had yesterday (Oct. 26) of the University Collections at the old McCalla Elementary School. We had 17 people there to tour
the collections led by Alicia Beard, Engagement Coordinator. It, truly, was amazing and the collections are awesome. We will be putting a photo on our website taken in the room there
dedicated to Herman Wells. You will see Martha Street seated at his desk and in his chair and the rest of us all around her. If you have a chance, it would be well worth your time to go to see this building and the displays. You can call 812-855-1024 to find out the days and times the building is open for viewing. I guarantee you will be glad you went to see it.
At this time, we do not have another meeting scheduled but will work on that soon. Also we need to remind you to continue doing your volunteer work and keeping track of the hours you spend serving in our community. We will ask you to send in your total hours for 2022
at the end of December/first of January.
In the meantime, stay well and healthy – and enjoy the beautiful fall days and holiday
seasons coming up.
Jo & Janis
