Norene Hogle likes peanut butter and banana sandwiches, but hasn't had one in awhile. She had her fill of them in Tanzania.
She recently returned from a two-month stay in the central African nation, where she volunteered at an orphanage. Breakfasts and lunches consisted of those sandwiches.
Hogle will turn 80 this month. A retired teacher, the Mukilteo woman doesn't just like to travel. She likes to help. And teaching in orphanages in Namibia and Tanzania has only whetted her appetite to continue to reach out to these very needy youngsters and to encourage others to do the same.
Meet this vivacious and entertaining woman and hear her interesting stories - yes, even the one where she fell and broke her kneecap in the middle of nowhere - get a signed copy of her book, "Are You Feeling a Little Finer, Miss Norene?", hear some fabulous music and enjoy refreshments.
