Community Kudos for
PBA Member:
yourCare Medical Supply
"I just wanted to say how pleased I was with 'yourCare Medical Supply' and that I am delighted to see that they are the business of the month (in December).
They have made dealing with CPAP supplies simple - like it should be. In the past, I have been very frustrated with the ordering process and associated red tape. So, they have solved a real ongoing problem for me. Thank You!"

RUSSIAN SPIES IN PENFIELD?!?
It's 1952: America's on the verge of the H-bomb, Dwight Eisenhower's on the campaign trail, and I Love Lucy's on Monday nights. Meanwhile, Senator Joe McCarthy's daughter just got engaged to a Soviet spy, and Boston detective Maggie Pelletier has to find out who dumped the dead guy in the Harbor-or else lose out on a honeymoon in Havana. A blunt-nosed, sharp-eyed look at love and tying (and untying, and retying) the knot.
The show will be presented as a "radio play" on Saturday, February 20 at 2:00 pm. FREE ADMISSION; donations heartily accepted.
 ALSO....Mark your calendars for February 22 and 23 - Penfield Players is holding auditions for their Spring Melodrama - "Sneakypete Underhand's Devious Dealings" by Billy St. John. There are roles for seven men and four women of various ages. Visit their Facebook page for further information!
