Tuesday is our next Hormel Retiree breakfast. Just in case you didn’t know anyone that is retired from Hormel or a spouse is invited to participate.

Each month from September to May those that have retired from Hormel meet on the second Tuesday to have a great breakfast at a reasonable price and talk to the friends you use to work with.

This is a great time for all. If you haven’t attended a breakfast yet make sure you give us a try. On Tuesday, we start serving at 9 a.m. but come early. We will have the coffee on the table for you. We will be having French toast, sausage, fruit, juice and coffee for $5 in advance or $6 at the door. To purchase your advance tickets stop by the front desk of the Mower County Senior Center.

We look forward to seeing you at our many programs at the senior center. Don’t forget our coffee shop where every day you can have homemade soup for $1 a sandwich for 50 cents. Tuesday we are having tuna noodle hotdish for only $2. You are always welcome at the center. See you here.
