Square Knots originated back in 1966 when its charter members had very young children who needed to get out once in a while to enjoy adult company while keeping the budget to a minimum. Our purpose is still the same: to promote social fellowship and recreation for adult members and friends of members of the First Presbyterian Church of Hamilton Square weather they're singles or couples. Meetings are held on the first Saturday (generally evening) of every month except July and August. In recent years we've been functioning without officers, program chairpersons or committee chairpersons. It's the input and active involvement of everyone that makes Square Knots a success. As we evolve and our membership changes, our programs change also.


SQUARE  KNOT  HAPPENINGS 

As has been our custom the last several years, the Square Knots monthly programs are run by individuals who ask club members to assist them in running their respective program.  Wayne and Barbara Anderson will be the Secretaries/Publicity persons and Elly Dennis will, once again, be the phone contact person.  Paul Tindall is the Treasurer.

On Saturday, February 4th we plan to attend Kelsey Theatre on the Mercer County Community College campus to see “Laughter on the 23rd Floor”.  This aware-winning production takes us back to the golden age of television, circa 1953, and behind the scenes of the hottest program on the air, “The Max Prince Show”.  Inspired by Neil Simon’s real-life experiences while working on Sid Caesar’s hit television program, “Your Show of Shows,” this side-splitting comedy is modeled after the real-life kings of comedy we worked with in the 1950’s, including Mel Brooks, Carl Reiner, Sid Caesar and the great Jackie Gleason.  Curtain time is 8:00 p.m.  You may want to car pool by calling anyone on the sign-up sheet.  To make a  reservation and for reservation and payment deadline,  see Donna & Paul Tindall as quickly as possible.   

On Saturday, March 3rd we plan to be in rooms 5 & 6 of the church by 6:00 p.m. for Irish Dinner Night.  This will include salad, corned beef & cabbage, Irish soda bread and dessert.  The corned beef & cabbage and Irish soda bread will be provided.  You are asked to indicate whether you’ll bring salad or dessert when you sign up.  Cost will be determined that evening and will be payable to Linda Woodman.  Please use the sign-up sheet or call Elly Dennis no later than Sunday, February 26th

 

Looking forward to seeing you at the above listed events.  All adult members and friends of the church community are invited and encouraged to participate in events sponsored by the Square Knots.
