YOU CAN HELP US BOOST OUR NUMBERS
COMMUNITY PARTNER HOLDS BINGO ACTIVITY
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED DURING SUMMER MONTHS…
As we approach summer many of our volunteers will be taking time off to travel or keep grandchildren. We ask that you spread our volunteer message to all you know; at church, at groups you belong to, to family members and out-of-school children. All of working together can fill up the calendar, but we all need o spread the word quickly and with everyone we know. Thank you in advance for helping!
This Means YOU!!

Louise Wallace is eager to put your name on the buck-a-month board. What is it, you ask? The buck-a-month club is a way to support the Senior Center with building expenses. Although there is no longer a mortgage on the building, there are still plenty of expenses. Roof leaks, heating and air conditioner repairs, and the list goes on and on. Just like at your own home, a building this size requires constant repairs. For only $1 each month or $12 per year, you can have your name posted on the Wall of Fame on the North wall of the dining room. Your name will appear with bright shiny stars after it for each month you have paid. Please see Louis Wallace today to join. I think the best part about this club is there are no meetings to attend and no offices to hold. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Don't sit in the dumps..Move It! Move It!
Neighbors spending time with grandkids and family and being out of town on vacation along with the heat and humidity might have you feeling alone and friendless - could be a case of the "Summer Time Blues". A quick fix when this happens, is to come to the Senior Center.
Get up, get dressed and come to the Center. Visit with other folks, attend the many activities each day, work puzzles and talk and visit with the regulars, go table to table and make new friends, have lunch, volunteer… why the list is endless! But the worst thing to do is stay home. When you have that feeling…we've got the cure for the "Summer Time Blues" at the Center!!!!
PAINTING GROUP LOOKING FOR NEW PAINTERS
The Monday and Tuesday Painting Time group would love to have you join them for their Painting Time. They meet every Monday and Tuesday from 12:30 to 3:30 and everyone does their own thing. They are a very talented group AND would love to have you with them. Take a look at what they are doing while they are painting in the dining room.
Ummmm! Good Coffee!
Every morning, at 10 am, we put out coffee along with danish and some other treat to tempt your taste buds. Why not come on out to the Center and spend some quiet time with friends and a good cup of coffee tomorrow?
There is usually a card game or two going on or you can quietly put together jig saw puzzles with others. The computers are always available for your use and we have a number of current magazines for quiet reading while sitting in our comfy sofa's. Bessie's Boutique is a fun second hand store to browse through. Check out our Calendar of Events to see what is scheduled on a day to day basis. There's surely something that you can participate in or contribute to with your talents.
MEMORIALS TO CENTER HONORS THE DECEASED
When memorial gifts are given to the Center, it provides income which ensures the Center will be here for years to come. When the total gift received in the name of one person reaches $50, their name will be placed on the Memorial Plaque in the hallway. Our memorial donation envelopes are located on top of the antique replica radio beside the office door. For further information, contact administrative personnel at the Center. We can further direct you in having a bequest made to the Senior Center.
Recently, we have received several memorials to the Senior Center to memorialize those who have passed away. We want to thank any of you who remembered the Senior Center in your estate planning by remembering us with a gift.
HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE SENIOR CENTER ON A DAILY BASIS???
Each and every day, all of us have the opportunity to support the Center in so many different ways. The list is nearly unlimited, but let me try to name a few:
As you can see, there are plenty of things we all can do to help our Center.
GIFT CERTIFICATES MAKE GREAT GIFTS When your children or grandchildren ask what they can buy you for birthdays, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day or "Just Because", why not request a gift certificate for your meals here at the Senior Center?
We have them available for any amount, and no time expiration. They may be purchased in the office during regular business hours. These are good for home-delivered meals as well as in-house congregate meals.
