Ruth moved to the Mount Joy area after retirement from K-Mart in 1973. She joined the Welcome Wagon Club and has been very active since. She held the office of Trea- surer, and has chaired the Bazaar, Craft, Member- ship, and Community Ser- vice committees.

Ruth is the kind of person who can be depended on, and is willing to help out whereever she is needed. The Mount Joy club is proud of Ruth Moore. She is an asset to the club and the Mount Joy Community and is quite deserving of the title Welcome Wagon Woman of the Year.
