As OCC retirees, all of us have dedicated a significant portion of our lives to the college. Even though our period of service is completed, the OCC retirees’ organization is an excellent way to maintain our ties with old friends and the college.

   It has been gratifying to see so many OCCARP members, spouses and friends at our events over the past year, and we hope those numbers will increase in 2007-2008.

   Many of our members who now live far away are kept “in the loop” through our monthly mailings, which inform them not only of OCCARP activities, but developments throughout our college community.

   Whether you live near or far, remember that OCCARP is your organization – that it will survive and flourish only as long as members are willing to invest in its activities.

   Better yet, if you’re still in the area, think about adding your two cents worth by serving on the OCCARP Board.

   On behalf of the board, I want to extend our best wishes to you and yours for health and happiness in the coming year.

Cordially,

Bob Zemke
OCCARP Board Chair
2007-2008
