It’s lonely in here!!!!!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!
It was a bit chilly (shall we say COLD), as asst. director Deb Briggs can attest, during a work session at the Center recently.
Stirring the kettle, With President Jim
Well, February was not an ideal month in this household!
Firstly, your president and editor, had a scrape with a cardiac incident, which resulted in another med to the growing list of stuff one must take when hitting the elder status!
Secondly, in mid-month a hacker got into my laptop, even with all the recommended anti-programs. They succeeded in stealing all my contact lists, wiped out my Office Suite software, and generally played havoc! All is not lost, however, as exec. Director Donna has all the Culture lists on the Center computer, so you are getting this as usual. It is a bit late, though, because I had to scrounge my favorite Office programs, which I found on Amazon. They were reloaded March 1 and I’m back in business!
A word of caution, even with all my “anti” this and that, a computer firm found 71 chunks of malware
– Until next issue, Jim
Director Donna’s Monthly March Report:
Greetings NHCC Members & Friends!
Spring is on the way! The sun is melting mountains of snow, and I am looking forward to leaving my “home office” and heading for our NHCC campus. We plan to open our season on Saturday, May 1st, 2021 at 10:00 A.M. We will implement the same “Wisconsin Public Facilities” regulations as last year. Through the continuing support of our Master Cheesemakers and the entire cheese industry, our loyal members, and volunteers, we have built a firm foundation.
The loyalty and friendships of our experienced and knowledgeable volunteers allows us to lead tours of the museum, offering colorful stories about early cheesemaking. In closing, we want to extend our sincere sympathy to the families and friends of eight dedicated NHCC volunteers and friends, that have passed away recently.
Your Director, Donna
